Hello
I have an application installed on Windows 2003 Server. I can only run the
App using "run as" a local account. However when I log in using the same
local account, the app does not launch. I get the error "you have to run
setup," as if the app is not installed. Should'nt it work when I log on
using the same account I run the app as?

The app works fine using WinXP

Regards

MH

I'd start by speaking to the application developer about their requirements.

Is this application officially supported on W2003?

What if you reinstall it using the account in question?
Beyond that, it's hard to know what to suggest, because ultimately it's up
to the software developer...
