Deployment problem with msi

I have a web service and a deployment project. Inside the deployment
project, is a custom action to create some database related items such as
stored procedures. I have this packaged as an msi, and can run the
deployment on win2k, win2k server, and winxp without problems. The database
related part of the custom deployment action uses integrated security to
login (SSPI). When tracing the deployments using sql profiler from any of
the machines, I see the login to the database as the user running the msi
package.
When using the same deployment package on win2003 server, the database
connection now uses "domain\machine name$" instead of the logged in user
running the package. This then fails because the domain\machinen ame$ does
not have any permissions to the database. The install is being done thru
terminal services and the logged in user is a domain admin.
I am pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to get this to use the
logged in user. I do not want to put in the sa password and log in that way,
because the web service will be deployed to different servers and databases.
Right now I have one service and a deployment package that can be deployed
anywhere (except win2003).
Any help or recommendations on where to look would be greatly
appreciated, or if there is a better user group to post to.

Thanks,
Jeff

Out of no where I'm starting to get these problems and my Deployment projects won't build anymore. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this?

I notcied it included the .NET 1.1 SP1 and I don't know if this might have any relation? ERROR...

Hi Everyone, I'm really struggling to get no-touch deployment to work well (if at all, in some cases). Can anyone recommend a good book on this topic? There seem to be a lot of blogs about "no-touch deployment"/"smart clients" but nothing that explains the entire technology, how to implement it effectively or the various aspects involved - in any step-by-step, cohesive manner.

VS.NET help on deployment indicates that, while using a deployment project requires administrative access to IIS, " we recommend deploying your project in most cases, because it allows you to take advantage of extensive deployment project management features, such as registration and IIS configuration." I guess that users of shared web hosts are using copying rather than a deployment project. What problems might this run into? I.e.,...

Hi, Can someone please tell me what is exactly zero deployment in VB.NET. Is it that .NET doesn't need to deal with the registry? If that is the case, then why MS introduced class registry? MTIA, Grawsha

Create two ASP.NET applications. Run them on the development machine to make sure they are error free. Publish the fist application to the root of a remote webspace. Call a page and see that it operates correctly. Publish the second application to the root of the same remote webspace. Permit it to overwrite existing files. Call a page and notice that it waits forever.

I used to use the Web Deployment Project with my VS2005 projects. Now I've fully upgraded to VS2008. Do I have to download a new version of the Web Deployment Project? If so where can I find it? If not, how do I have to change my deployment strategy? Thanks!

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
