Error 70 (permission Denied) Opening A VB5 App On A Vista Machine
Oct 24, 2009
I have an old app, a VB5 front end with access 97 databases all works Ok using the ...program files... folders in XP but I now have a user on Vista and we have problems opening up, and I am braced for problems saving and closing down, if we ever get there.
I sent him a c# applet which found the users folder using string Dpath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData);
I have moved the data and all settings files to a folder C:Users[Username]AppDataLocal[My app Name][My app data Path]
The start up routine checks a settings file uses the path in the settings to re-attach the front end database to a backend database, test to see if the database uses replication and set the default data path for the rest of the app. we are failing somewhere in here I am sure. I have checked and there are no updateable files in program files
Have I got the wrong path or is there something else I should be looking for?
I have an vs2008 version of the app which is using a similar location but a SQL server database- no problems
I've got a problem whereby I get Permission Denied while accessing a database via OleDB. I know how to unlock this but i'm not permitted to do so. I was wondering if ODBC would work? I'm not sure on the settings around this on my the PC where I'm going to use this application but wonder if this has less security around it. your thoughts until I can test this next week. Or is there another way you may know that I can use a database. (access)
My VB 6.0 application is using the remote server ( windows 2003 ) to connect database. for that i have used UNC path to connect . i am successfully login and able to access application. but i am getting the following error when i am trying to populate/tab feilds with data on tha application:
"Runtime error 70 access denied"
the same thing is working fine on windows XP machines but not working on windows 7 machine.
My application using Ms Access DB. when i connect to DB from client machine it show error at conn.open. the error was "you need permission to view its data".If I login to the server, it works perfectly.
[code]...
Is there any way to access the DB from code without server login?
I am calling the stored procedure sp_send_cdosysmail within an update trigger but when the trigger is executed it generates an error when the trigger is called.The error which the VB application gives is Execute Permission denied on Object 'sp_send_cdosysmail',database 'master,owner 'dbo.
I have a vbs script which captures file information and then exports it to a csv file. I need to run the script on main drives such as C:, E:, I: and more, but each time I run for the main directory I get "Permission Denied" when I try to run it for a subfolder example C:Program Files it works fine. I have tested this on different desktop machines and servers with full admin accounts and still get it.What could be the issue with this code. test.vbs
I am close to the end of the first lesson in VB 6. When I try to add the northwind DB to my app and test it I get "Access to the database file is not allowed". The link is to a screen shot: [url]
There are no "non-public" or "static" methods in my code. All are public. What I'm trying to do is pass a FrameworkElement (more specifically a web browser control) that was created in one process over to another process for display and use. Also I'm not using (and would to avoid using) any of the framework 3.5 addin stuff.[code]
Im working on an AutoUpdate class for a small application I've been working on, and with Windows 7 and Vista machines I get a permissions error when trying to replace some of the files in the Application folder. The only way to get it work is to run the application as an administrator. Is there a way I can either attempt to automatically run the app as administrator, or a way of replacing the files that won't be blocked by Vista/7's permission gatekeepers?
screwed up User Access Control, some functionality does not inherit the accounts true privileges. I built a Command Prompt application and ran it from an Admin account, but I kept getting access denied when I ran it. The only work around I can find for now to shut the dam thing off in control panel.
vb.net Public Sub AntiCorrupt() Dim DirInfo As New IO.DirectoryInfo(HardDrive) DoneGather = False Results.AddRange(IO.Directory.GetFiles(HardDrive, "*.*", IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)) 'Admin Access

I tried running this application as administrator, even though I am on an admin account. I even disabled UAC. Nothing seems to work. I do not want to just skip the file, I want to read it.How does a antivirus program scan every file on your computer for errors? How do it read the file if Vista prevents it?
I cannot find the place to change my cpu to x86. When I follow the instruction in the MSDN library help, there is no option to change from 64 bit to x86.
The program will allow me to attach the database and preview the file, but after compiling the file and starting the application I ge an empty database.
I made an application to give to my friends as practice for my learning, so the app works fine with XP but not on a Vista 64 bit machine. Will the app need re-coding? The app is used as a game mod, so it writes to process.
I have just installed vista 64 bit on a new system and put visual studio 2008 on then tried opening an old project of mine. When the project loads it reads from a mdb file and just fills a few comboboxes but when i run it in vista it doesnt read it but in xp which i have on a laptop it does read it.
I have created an application using VB 2008 Express on an XP machine. I created a deployment package and installed it on other XP machines with no problems. I tried it on a Vista machine and all seemed well until performing a serial port function. It simply halts/locks up. I have to close it in task mangler. I thought I would circumvent the problem by building and publishing it on the Vista machine. While running the program from VB express the program functions perfectly on that Vista machine, but when I publish and install it on same it still crashes at the serial portion of the program.
I want to replace/delete imageres.dll in system32 golder in vista/7 from vb.net Note : that i have taken ownership of file with cmd in windows 7. And also note when i delete the file from windows explorer it gets deleted successfully but when i do it with vb.net it failes
Today i added the following method in office outlook 2007 visual basic IDE for 'ThisOutlookSession'.Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim strSubject As String strSubject = Item.Subject If Len(Trim(strSubject)) = 0 Then
I am concatinating a couple of text files and then deleting the individual files. (Not the output file)
The only problem is that I am getting a permission error "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A0046 (CTL_E_PERMISSIONDENIED)" when I try to delete the files.
I can delete the files using the code below if I do not concatinate the files but as soon as I do I cannot delete them.
To concatinate: Public Sub MeltText() Dim SW As New IO.StreamWriter(OutPutFile) Dim Files As String() = IO.Directory.GetFiles(StartDirectory, "*.txt") Dim File As String SW.WriteLine("Sw
I've run my program on one computer fine, however when I run it on another PC which has high security settings I have a OleDB permission problem, can I access my DB another one which will avoid the IT department getting to involved to much? (they just very busy right now)
I'm having to write a reporting application that gets information from some Interbase servers and it also has to work on Vista as well as XP, I'm using to connect Borlands Data Provider.[code]My Issue is that debugging on my xp Machine the dataset gets filled, debugging on my vista box it fails ("Interbase provider initialization failed"), my initial thought was that this could be UAC related but I've compiled the application and 'ran as admin' and still same issue. (by the way it failes on the line Dim da as BdpDataAdapter...)
I use a custom tool to translate a flat text to xml text. I then create the file, with over-write set to True. When I try to write the text to the file, I get the error. The error says "Error: Invalid procedure call or argument", "System: Access is denied." It seems like the Create command is holding the file locked, so the Write command fails.
Running in VbsEdit IDE, I can see it fail. If I copy the text which is trying to be written, and paste it into UltraEdit, then attempt to save the file there, I get the same error This is expected, because the VBScript execution is holding the file locked. It should NOT be holding it locked for the script itself, right?[code]...
I need video chat application in my project.I had created VB.NET user control in class library project for Video Chat and its working.
But when i am trying to load user control in c# web page. While Executing i am getting security error as....

Neither work. I also tried adding the local serivce account and the system acount as owners, also without success
When I am trying to connect to database from VB.net, I am getting error. This is my code. Public g_Conn As new SqlClient.SqlConnection With g_Conn .ConnectionString = "user id=sa ;data source= CCTSRV8; " & _ "persist security info=True; " & _ "initial catalog=pubs ;password=mrwizard" .Open() End With I am getting system.data.sqlclient.sqlclientpermission error.
The last line throws an exception "Cannot open file" with certain end-user profiles. It works perfectly fine when executing from an Admin account. I just cannot figure out what user privileges and access settings may cause the error. Note that it also works with some end-user accounts (not admins). What missing user rights can cause this?
my program read and writes into registry and has been working fine, until today when i tested it on a new server i got this error request for the permission of type system.security.permissions. registryPermissions, mscorlib,version=2.0.0.0. i checked the registry permission and made sure all allows are ticked.
