 |
|
Hi,
I keep getting the following error when trying to run SQL Data Generator as a batch file.
Could not create licence distribution files. Please run as administrator if you wish to create these files.
Error occurred whilst writing new distribution licence to disk: I/O error occurred.
The OS is Windows 7 Ultimate so i'm guessing i just need to grant access to which ever folder SQL Data Generator is trying to write to?
The weird thing is the data does get generated as i can see it in the database. But errors will get reported as this is an overnight process.
Info
OS: Windows 7 Ulitmate
SQL Data Generator 1 v1.2.0.286
Thanks
Craig |

Many thanks for your post.
Can you try following steps:
1. Browse to the file 'RedGate.SQLDataGenerator.UI' which will be in the installation path by default : x64: C:\Program Files (x86)\Red Gate\SQL Data Generator 1 for x86: C:\Program Files\Red Gate\SQL Data Generator 1
2. Right click the file and select the option "Run as Administrator"
Kindly let me know if this fixes the problem.

Hi Anu,
That doesn't solve my problem as i'm not running the data generator via the UI.
If you place this in a .bat file you'll most likely see the error.

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Red Gate\SQL Data Generator 1

Look's like i've managed to solve the problem. I had to grant full access to the folder
| Quote: |
| C:\Program Files (x86)\Red Gate\SQL Data Generator 1\Config |
for the user that is running the generator.
The 'error/warning' message does not appear anymore.
Additional Notes for everyone else:
I tried setting the Privilege Level "Run this program as an administrator" for all users for "SQLDataGenerator.exe" this quickly prompted Windows 7 to ask "Do you want the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer" which didn't work for me. |
