Need help installing and configuring NAS

Djou2424

Hi,

I'm trying to install and configure NAS at a client.
They are running 2009 on SQL.

I ran the installation cd, disabled the standard 2 services (for classic and sql) and tried to do a manual installation using the following command (replacing ABC with the correct values):
nassql appservername=ABC, servername=DEF, database=GHI, nettype=TCP, company=ABC, startupparameter=JKL, installasservice
I get an error message saying the operating system cannont access to the file ABC. Verify that the file type and attributes are correct.

I went to the NAS folder and ran the SnapIn application and the application server seems to be running. I also see it in my services.
However, if I try to do a net start or a net stop on it, I get another error message, saying system error 5 has occured. Access is denied.
What am I doing wrong?

I can start and stop the service from the services.msc window or the snapin application but I can't do it from the command prompt.

I need to be able to create a scheduled task to run that once a day at a specific hour.

Also, I need to create a 2nd instance of NAS. I did it by copying the first installation folder to a new folder and I try the same thing again. How can I change the appservername for the 2nd installation?

Thank you
-Julie

Are you running the command prompt as administrator? (the UAC functionality in Windows...)

It was indeed the problem.

Thank you very much.

You are welcome... that you think you have permissions doesn't necessarily means that you realy have them in times of UAC... 8)
