Remote login: app starts - closes & logs out.

Post by ezderek » Mon Jan 13, 2014 10:42 pm

My apologies for double posting. I previously posted this in the installation section, which was the wrong place.
Using the trial version I believe everything is installed properly, on W7 home premium. I turned off all anti virus and turned off windows firewall in order to download and install, and received no errors.
I set up a remote user login called "Remote1"
I also have a user account on the server called "Remote1"
I assigned an app to it, (a MS Access database app) and "tested" it. The test started and ran with no problem.
But when I try to run this app from the remote user, it starts up fine, but then immediately windows says "Logging Off" and the session ends.
If I log in to Windows on the server as "Remote1" and run the app, it runs fine, so this is not a user permissions problem.

Also, BTW, what do I have to do to get Chrome to run successfully on the server. Since installing tSPlus, my antivirus keeps reporting "chrome patch" as a virus. I add it to the exceptions list but it seems to give problems every time I log on.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Derek

I am adding to my own post, having discovered something important.
The app that is set to run automatically is a small exe which loads up some needed files, then, in turn, runs ms Access Runtime, with some commandline variables. It's really just a fancy compiled batch file, but it hides passwords etc from the end user.

But here's what happens with TSPLUS. The exe loads and runs, and does its job and loads Access. At this point the exe is finished, and terminates. But because it terminates, TSPLUS thinks the session is over, and closes, closing Access with it.

In summary it seems I can't specify as a "startup" - any app that spawns other processes, because once the spawning parent is complete, everything closes.

Any ideas?

Derek.

Hello,

Well this is what I figured in your earlier post here : tsplus.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3151

If your server was installed on a pro version of Windows seven you could have done a setup of your batch file as a logon script to be launched in a group policy.
You can find the location of this strategy here : tsplus.net/support/kb/faq.php?id=25
