[Solved] VIPM crashes with file permission error


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Over night something changed on my windows 10 build server and I can now no longer open VIPM. It just shows the splash screen and then closes again.

Here's the log file:

=========== START of VIPM 2018.0.0 (build 2025) Error Message ===========

Any idea where the files are that it doesn't have the right permissions for?

Try running VIPM as an administrator.

I have had similar issues happen when trying to install packages that were cached from the tools network by another user.  Cached packages (and some other VIPM settings, I would assume) are stored in %ProgramData%, and Windows 10 seems to think that you shouldn't be able to access files in program data created by (in this case downloaded by) another user.

Just wanted to say thanks from the future, and that this fix still works. Deleting the cache prompted me for admin access a couple times, so I suspect that somehow some of the files in the cache didn't get the permissions they needed. Perhaps I ran VIPM as admin one time, and it updated the cache with some new packages (that I didn't actually download), then next time it got stuck? I'm not sure, but clearing the cache definitely fixed things for me. Thanks again.
