System.Security.SecurityException - NX4 VB .NET app on server share

[MarckyMON]

Hi fellow forum members,

I am at a loss how to solve this issue. I developed an NX4 application and I am able to run this successfully locally. However, once moved to a server, a SecurityException is thrown.

I have done a lot of research but I haven't found a solution for my problem. I've tried to set the .NET 1.1 configuration on my computer and on the server but to no avail - I increased the LocalIntranet code set to FullTrust but it still does not work. Unfortunately I am not an expert how these security permissions work, only that something needs to be set, but I don't know what exactly!

An exerpt from my log file is below. I would appreciate any help! Thanks so much!!

Try running attached bat file on client and server.

Hope it helps

Best regards,

Hi Michael,

Thanks a lot for your post. Unfortunately it did not work, as v1.0.5000.0 does not exist as a folder on the server and client under ...\Framework. The only folder containing caspol.exe is v1.1.4322. After updating the bat file and running it both on the client and the server, the issue still persists.

Is there a specific version of .NET framework I have to install?

I did it!!!! IT FINALLY WORKS!!!

On the client, I accessed the GUI version of caspol (Control Panel->Adminstrative Tools->Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration) then carried out the following steps:

1. Under Runtime Security Policy->Machine->Code Groups->All_Code, I right-clicked and selected "New..."
2. In the upcoming dialog, I created a new code group, then clicked on Next.
3. In the condition type drop down list, I selected "URL".
4. In the now displayed text box, I typed "file://mrosmmf012/*", then clicked on Next.
5. In the last step I chose "FullTrust" in the drop down list under the "Use existing permission set" radio button.
