Security problem

Hallo,

I had some trouble with the build script.
If I try to access the Web the following error appears:

Server Error in '/bugnet' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Security Exception

Re: Security problem

The exception management block is trying to log an error to
the event log but does not have permission.

To fix this problem run :
installutil Micrisoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.dll

in the BugNet \bin folder or where the dll exists. This
will create the proper registry entries for logging errors
to the event log.

Re: Security problem

what do you mean with installutil?

It would be nice to have a msi or setup.exe for deploying the web...

Installutil is a .net framework sdk tool. More information can be found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cptools/html/cpconInstallerUtilityInstallutilexe.asp

You need to run this tool against the exceptiion management dll before event logging is allowed from asp.net.

Installation is a bit painful right now but is currently being addressed by myself and one of the project members, Rachit.

We are aiming for a msi installation of the project that will do all these tasks for you.
