K1000 - Why wont my script deliver the package when I use "Run As"?
I have a script that requires elevated privileges to install. It runs perfectly when I double click on the file as my account has admin rights.
I created an on-line script in KACE, using the system account. Package deploys to C:\ProgramData\Dell\KACE\kbots_cache\packages\kbots\ and tries to execute, but fails due to not sufficient privileges. I adjust the on-line script to "Run As", enter my account and password. Steps seem to run, KACE shows completed and message box pops up. But no package is delivered to C:\ProgramData\Dell\KACE\kbots_cache\packages\kbots.
Any suggestions, advice, criticism, would be greatly appreciated as I am about ready to jump out the window.

You can also use the PSExec command from the Sysinternals Suite to open a command prompt as system and see if the command runs manually that way. What does the script do? - chucksteel 9 years ago

Using PSExec worked with the script that I wrote. Installed correctly. But does not install using Kace. - ecjohnson@qrinc.com 9 years ago

Can you share the script? - chucksteel 9 years ago

call msiexec.exe /i "ATT_Connect_Participant.msi" /q /l* "C:/drivers/ATTv9.log" TRANSFORMS="ATT_Connect_Participant_ALL.mst" - ecjohnson@qrinc.com 9 years ago

When using RunAs, and bearing in mind that the system account has no domain rights so cannot validate a domain account, you need to use a local account.
