SourceGear file permissions

We had some problems with tour server running Vault, and some directory permissions were changed. Now when the client tries to connect it fails and returns an error "unable to generate a temporary class" referring to "c:\winnt\temp".

I've added the everyone user with read/write permissions as temporay measure, and it's working now; but I'd like to know what user it should be running as.

Thanks,

Rich.

It sounds like the account used by Vault doesn't have access to the Winnt\temp directory to write the log file, etc. If this is Windows 2000, the Vault user might be machine\ASPNET, or it could be a custom account. Look in the Vault server log (sgvault.log in Winnt\temp\sgvault) for the "System Started" section. It will have a line with Identity=<accountname>. This is the account used by Vault.
