Problem with Logs

    • Status: Invalid
    • Priority: High (2)
    • Component: -
    • Estimate: None/Small/Medium/Large None
    This appears to be exclusive to Windows 7 since it is a problem I cannot replicate. The problem is high though so I will do some Testing on Vista and verify or deny it's existance.

    Status changed from Accepted to Invalid
    This is the stupidest error ever. It appears there is a permissions problem, and it is being caused by the TrustedInstaller itself. The installer is acting as a parent and granting a set of blanket permissions, which does exactly what I have been trying to get away from ..... it puts your myfiles in a hidden folder.

    So ... this is invalid. I'll help change permissions, but what I am going to be looking at is a dependency install file, and I will take a look at the NSIS script to determine if I can set some permissions of my own.

    Here is what I did:
    I found the Program Files/Traipse folder, then under Security inside Properties I clicked on Advanced. Press edit and uncheck the 'include inheritable permissions' and then delete all of them and add these:

    • System (full control)
    • Administrators (full control)
    • Your User Name (full control)

    Almost done. You just need to take owner ship of the folder. Under the Owner tab, press Edit and select you.

    For the final step you will need to re-run setup.py Unfortunately if you do not run setup again the software is broken into pieces by Windows.

    This is how it works on Vista, so I am betting it will work on 7. Sorry, this is invalid in it's current form ... but I will make a new ticket with the correct way to fix it.

    oh yeah ... doing this also fixes the Updater Problem.

    One last thing. All you logs are saved, just find the log folders and hit Compatibility Files. It will take you to the hidden folder.
