Terminal Service Plus

Hi,

I'm trying to run an application through TSplus that starts a console application as part of a functionality.
Basically, the main app creates a hidden console application process (the user doesn't see the console window) that runs in a job, and communicates with it though named pipes.
The console app writes a pipe and the main app reads from it to then show data to the user.

I have a regular local user and an administrator user account in the server where the main app is installed (Win 2008 R2).
When I try to use the published app from another PC (web access using HTML5) it is started ok but I have "Access is denied" error everytime the console app needs to be launched.

Moreover, I noticed that after installing TSplus the main application started to show this "Access is denied" error when logging directly to both local users too.
It was working ok on both local users before installing TSplus, I checked that.

Then, I tried the same with Win 2003 and it worked ok there.
The main app was able to run the console app after installing TSplus under the local users and from another PC (web access using HTML5) through TSplus.

I wanted to ask you if there is a limitation for published applications to launch a console application.
Do I need to set special permissions in Win 2008 R2 to enable that?
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,

There are no known limitations to use console application. If your application has a specific installation procedure on RDS / terminal server, you may need to follow it as TSplus is very similar.

Hi,

I'm not publishing a console app, the published app is a Window app that launches a console app as part of a functionality.
And the issue occurs when launching this console app.

There is no special installation/procedure/configuration for RDS/Terminal Server.
In fact, the Window app was installed and working correctly before installing TSplus.

After installing TSplus I was able to publish the Window app but I detected this strange error when launching a console app through the Window app.
After that, I checked again if the Window app was working ok through the local users directly (no RDS/TS/TSplus) and I noticed it started to show the same access is denied error too.
So, it seems TSplus must have changed/set something that is conflicting with the Window app.

Is TSplus setting any privilege/right related to launching processes or console apps?
Do you have any other thoughts about this that would help?

Thanks.
