Hi All,

I am trying to install self sign sis file on my device. I am getting this message "Required application access not granted". I searched in forum and found that this is problem due to capability problem.

I have this capability in my .mmp.
CAPABILITY LocalServices UserEnvironment ReadUserData WriteUserData NetworkServices NetworkControl WriteDeviceData.

I think I can use this capability with self sign

Please reply any one.. Puzzled


Thanks & Regards

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

To understand the capability requirements, the best way is to remove all capabilities and check the epocwind.out to see what capabilities are needed.

As for what capability is ok for self-signing, guess you should use the same advise you give on many threads..check the documents Eye-wink

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

Hi Neil,

I checked temp directory and found epocwind.out file. These are the capability which is available in epocwind.out file.
LocalServices+ReadUserData+WriteUserData+UserEnvironment+NetworkServices+ReadDeviceData+WriteDeviceData+NetworkControl+CommDD+AllFiles.

Now I am going to include this capability in my .mmp file ,then I will try to install application on my device.


Thanks & Regards

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

A 'dir epocwind.out /s' is what it would take to find the file.

Anyway, when I do that it gives me this path : C:\Documents and Settings\[Neil]\Local Settings\Temp

Edit : sorry I didnt notice that you had more messages below the one I read..each one actually telling each step that you are doing Eye-wink

Edit 2: I believe you had already found your solution in http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=131708&highlight=capability
Anyway..happy posting (Gosh I could have made 3 posts instead of editing the same one 3 times Eye-wink )

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

This message may come up when your installation file (.sis/.sisx) copies files to other application's private folder or trying to install files where it shouldn't. So check in that respect.

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

Issue seems to do with capability. Check on that issue.

Another possibility could be that you are trying to install a binary with a name which already exist on the Z drive.

Re: Required application access not granted during installation

Maybe you have another application with the same name installed (Thats what the installer might be saying)
Regarding capability, carbide 1.3 has got a capability scanner which might be useful to you (Note: I dont know if its available for all versions, but its available in my developer edition atleast)

edit : just noticed that you got codewarrior Sad anyway info will always help!!
