Force FME to Run Command Prompt as Admin with FME Server

Hi there,

I have a workspace that is using the SystemCaller to run an encryption/decryption process (GnuPG ). It runs fine from Desktop and Server when I set the FME Server Engines to use my Admin account, but when I set the Server Engines to use a service account (and I'm logged into that account), FME Desktop runs fine but Server fails to execute. I think I've narrowed it down to the fact that I need to force the Command Prompt to run as Admin from FME, but I'm not sure of how to do that. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Sam

User Account Control (UAC) will not let you execute the command without a prompt. The only way I can think of is dissabling UAC but that is a no go if you ask me.

But I don't think it is your issue what you describe because the systemcaller in FME desktop would then also be failing. Is it a network resource you are accessing from the server?
