Error creating PDF - Access is denied
Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2011 4:28 pm
Hi All,
I've just completed my installer and have found an odd issue when testing it on Windows 7 client machines.
NovaPDF installs perfectly and everything works as it should with my application - but when it comes to generating a PDF to send into my application, an error is displayed saying that access is denied.
My application resides in C:\Program Files\<CompanyName>\Virtual Printer and it appears as though NovaPDF does not have write access to this location by default in order to write the PDF. I can get around this issue by giving the local users group write access but there must be a better way of doing this?
Which user does NovaPDF run as? I thought it would be SYSTEM but this error makes me think that it runs as a local user.
For reference, I'm using a registered version of NovaPDF OEM v7.5.
Many thanks,
Steve
