Re: Citrix and c:\\drive /JDE and c:\\drive
After a long trial/research period of trying to get JDE to work on a W2K3 Server, and finding bits of info here and there but not being able to find all info at one source, I thought I'd post my experience and ask for any improvements along the way.
Scenario:
JDE 7.333 (older version)
Citrix 4.0 Presentation Server
Windows 2003
Oracle Client 10g
Problem: Get user permissions correct so that both Oracle and JDE can be used by "Users" without admin rights.
After all the software is installed, and the Citrix machine has its own C:\ (not J:,K: or whatever), full file permissions must be given to:
C:\B7 (or whatever JDE version home directory) + subdirs.
c:\jde*.* (typically 10 files)
c:\windows\Debug\UserMode\ChkAcc.log
Registry permissions: full admin to the following keys -
HKEY_C_R\.jde
HKEY_C_R\ONEWORLD.JDEAPPLICATION
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOM.Column
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOM.DataItem
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOM.DataStructure
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOMEnvironment
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOM.Library
HKEY_C_R\JDEPPCOM.Table
HKEY_C_R\JDEOBJECTBROWSERABCTRL
HKEY_C_R\JDEdwards.Application
HKEY_C_R\CLSID
HKEY_C_R\TypeLib
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JDEdwards + subkeys
One TID recommended givings admin rights to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT at the root. I tried this and could no longer log on to the machine. Thank God for Acronis.
Oracle will not allow non-admins to connect unless the following is set:
Local Security Policy - Local Policies - User Rights Assignment - Create global objects
Add here the Group or Persons needing rights to the Oracle Client.
That about does it. It doesn't seem like much, but does work.
