Error with interactive installation (4.1.5) started by system user when logged-on user has no admin rights

The Toolkit General Discussion
1

I want to start an installation via task scheduler by the system user.
Starting "Show-ADTInstallationWelcome" isn't working because of an error (see below).
Silent installation is working fine. If the logged on user has admin rights the GUI is working just fine too. Only if the logged on user has only user rights the error occurs.
The error stays the same with version 4.1.3, 4.1.5 and the 4.1.6 version from last friday (PSADT.dll 26.Sep 00:39).
Any help is appreciated.

You need to ensure that users can at the very least, read the contents of the lib folder in the PSAppDeployToolkit module directory, as well as the contents of the Assets folder. We can't amend these permissions on remote shares without an error.

3

I don't think that is the solution.
We copied the PSAppDeployToolkit folder to "C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules" and the user can for example run Get-ADTEnvironment.

PS C:\Windows\system32> Initialize-ADTModule
PS C:\Windows\system32>
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-ADTEnvironment

Key                                       Value
---                                       -----
appDeployToolkitName                      PSAppDeployToolkit
appDeployToolkitPath                      C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PSAppDeployToolkit
appDeployMainScriptVersion                4.1.5
culture                                   de-DE

You're right, I didn't read the entire stack trace properly. I'll take a look and test this exact scenario out later on today.

5

Actually, can you please show me the security permissions on a file within the lib folder of the module as it currently resides within C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules? Something like the below:

It was "Read & Execute". Just to be sure I gave the user "Full control" rights and started an exe from the lib folder. The user was able to start the exe (screenshot).

The error stayed the same anyway.

I added an icacls screenshot after I changed the rights to "Full" for the whole PSADT folder.

I haven't looked at this fully as it's been a busy week, but I just had a thought. I imagine your assets (logos, etc) are still on the network share? Can you please make sure the user can read those and try again?

9

I used the cache option, so the data should be local. But I'll check it later because it's past midnight here by now. :wink:
I am in no hurry and thank you for your support!

10

You can test this build out, it'll have a more detailed throw that'll give us more insight: - Add a more descriptive throw in `AssemblyPermissions.Remediate()` t… · PSAppDeployToolkit/PSAppDeployToolkit@45a7f9f · GitHub.

You're not the first person to report confusion over this, so having the exception throw with the file it had an issue with will be beneficial.

11

You were right. The problem was the not readable AppIcon.png on the network share.
I made a mistake putting the Copy-ADTContentToCache behind Show-ADTInstallationWelcome.
I changed this now but Show-ADTInstallationWelcome still wants to use the png on the network share. Shouldn't it now use the local one?
I added two rows in the script following Copy-ADTContentToCache to show the $adtSession.DirFiles and $adtSession.DirSupportFiles variables. The user has read&execute permissions on the local files.

The Copy-ADTContentToCache was never designed with this in mind, and there's commentary here about potentially reworking the scope so it truly only works on the Files/SupportFiles directories. The assets don't have to live next to your deployment script, they could theoretically be anywhere as fully qualified paths are allowed, so how would (should?) we know to cache them?

I got your point. I wasn't aware that I can change the path to the assets in the config file. I did that and now everything works perfect.
Thank you for your great tool and support!
