Re: [Wrapper-user] Problem with Java service in Windows 2000

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Sona,
    Another question.   You say that the problem goes away when you set 
the user to
"Administrator"  Is that the currently logged in user or another one?   
In either case,
what happens if you set the service to run as the same user as the one 
logged in?
What, about a different user?

    I am wondering if there is maybe some problem with Java loading some 
of its
libraries in one user space and then trying to access them in another?...

    Cheers,
    Leif
