Starting Application from ASP.NET on Server Machine

Nusret Bajric

Hello,

I have a problem with starting a COM application from my ASP.NET application
on
the server machine. I get an error with a message permission denied during
creation of COM object.
If I start an application alone (without call through another COM DLL), it
does nothing (no process activity).
The application starts without problems from normal desktop application.

Do somebody know how cann one start such application from ASP.NET (button
click)?

Check your permissions on that object. By default, the ASP.NET worker
process (aspnet_wp.exe) runs with the user credentials ASPNET. Since most
COM objects are in-process DLLs, then your ASPNET account would need to have
the appropriate permissions to access this object, and then do anything this
object does in order to get its work done. If you want to secure things a
bit, you can use impersonation and windows authentication to launch it using
the credentials of the current user, and you can apply your ACLs based on
the groups which should be allowed to execute this application.

Starting up Windows Program from a webform with current users's authentication

by: Kristof Despiere | last post by:

Suppose you have one domain, filled with a couple of users. What needs to be done now is I need to start a windows application from a webform by pressing a button on the webform (for example). The problem is that the user who "owns" the service is always the ASPNET account. That's not good since you don't see the actual application (because it's owned by ASPNET). I've tried changed the processmodel section in the machine.config file to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
