Permissions (wodAppUpdate)
When my software performs the update as a regular user, the permissions get skewed. Everything becomes accessible by the administrator only. The service is running, which I thought would take care of that. Ideas?

Hi,
Which OS are you running? I have just tried on windows Vista Business as regular user and update worked without any issue.
Did you perhaps try with our sample. What happened?
Let us know how it goes.
Regards,

The machine I'm testing on is running Windows XP Pro. I tried your sample it works as long as the files aren't deposited in the windowssystem32 directory. If I left it in a directory that was writeable/readable to everyone it works ok. Putting it in the system32 directory and it didn't work.

Hi,
I have just try it and it works for me if I use for update windows System 32 folder. I have tested on Windows XP SP2 with regular user.
What version of wodAppUpdate you are using? You can check version using wodAppUpdate Version Property.
Latest version is 1.3.0.81.
If problem persist with latest version. Is there any chance that you can send us some sample that will duplicate your problem? You can send your private information to techsupport@weonlydo.com

I tried with your sample and got the same result. When it tries to update the updemo.dll, it errors out and says it can't delete the file. If I rerun it as administrator, it runs fine. The service is running, but unless I have admin priveledges, it won't let me access any file in the system32 folder. Yes I am running the latest version

Hi,
Can you please send us some example to techsupport@weonlydo.com I'm unable in duplicating your issue. It works for me.
Maybe you have some firewall? What is value of ServiceIsRunning Property when you request update as regular user?

I thought maybe it was another service causing it since none of the files are being updated except in the app directory, so I manually killed it. It was included in the cmd before to net stop the service, but it wasn't actually stopping it.
Even with that service stopped, it still wasn't updating the files in the system directory. I sent you a sample. If you see something I'm doing wrong, let me know. I can even setup the test machine so you can vnc to it and see what I'm saying.
...with a minimum of effort as the DLL interface was written with such simplicity...
You did a great job on wodSSH and wodSSHServer! I got a lot for very little money. Thanks!
...with the SFTP interface you produced, everything was so simple to understand, we were able to start coding almost immediately!
I can only hope I will have the pleasure to work with other products by "We Only Do" in the future.
Your component works really great. With minor effort I have been able to convert my delphi application...
We have recently completed a large 1200+ location project where reliable Telnet and SSH connectivity was required. wodSSH worked flawlessly and allowed our staff to complete our project ontime and within budget.
It was no small factor, however, that your support in getting me up and running made me buy from you.
The wodCrypt product is great and we appreciate your effort to add support for UNIX Crypt.
I've heard that you are amazing with your replies coming back so quickly - and now I've seen the speed in which you reply first hand.
