PRB: Security May Prevent Creation of Client Installation .Exe (170835)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Transaction Server 1.0
- Microsoft Transaction Server 1.0 SP2 for Alpha
- Microsoft COM
This article was previously published under Q170835 SYMPTOMS Microsoft Transaction Server 1.0 Service Pack 2a introduced
a new feature in its Package Export utility that creates a client installation
executable file. This client installation executable file may not be created if
Authorization Checking is enabled on the System package. Instead, Microsoft
Transaction Server will log the following error in the event log:
Client not authorized to make the call.
CAUSE Microsoft Transaction Server 1.0 Service Pack 2a adds a new
component, MTS.ClientExport.1, to the System package. However, it does not
authorize any role to use the ClientExport component. Therefore, if
Authorization Checking is enabled on the System package, nobody will be able to
use the ClientExport component until a role is authorized to use it.
RESOLUTION Perform the following steps to authorize the Administrator
role to use the ClientExport component: - In Microsoft Transaction Server Explorer, select the System
package and then the MTS.ClientExport.1 component.
- Open ClientExport's Role Membership.
- On the File menu, click New.
- In the Select Roles dialog box, select the Administrator and click OK.
- In Microsoft Transaction Server Explorer, select My
Computer.
- On the Tools menu, click Shutdown Server Processes.
