[sims] Pars .Net Framework permissions security error

[bondbill2k2]

Having carried out the spring updates during the holidays for Sims and Pars.net I have returned to find an error messege on all machines attempting to run Pars.

 

Sims will load up fine, Pars will show a red error bar on its loader wiht "bootstrap upgrade required" then give the following Microsoft .net framework error report:

 

The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. The operations required the securityexception. etc....

 

Request for the permission of type

System.SEcurity.Permissions.SecurityPermissions, mcorlib, version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral. PublickeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 failed

 

 

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this

application or machine (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

 

For example:

 

 

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine

rather than being handled by this dialog.

Hi,

 

It's likely to be your permissions on the local PARS folder (c:\program files\sims\PARS .net), specifically the ability of renamer.exe to rename files in that folder.

 

You may find that running PARS with a /C switch on the shortcut target line will be enough to get PARS running again: right click the shortcut -> properties -> the "Target" line should read:

 

"C:\Program Files\SIMS\PARS .net\Bootstrap.exe" PARS /C

 

Once PARS is working, delete the /C so it doesn't update every time you run it.

 

If that fails then delete the local PARS folder and reinstall. Call the helpdesk if you have any problems: 01902 824281
