Shared install on Windows doesn't use private folders for updates/workspace --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBDS-3052 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3052 Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio) Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: installer Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Beta2 Reporter: Nick Boldt Attachments: jbds8b2-windows8.1-child-user-private-install-updated-via-central.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-install-error-in-central.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-private-install-was-able-to-update-via-central.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid-error.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid-error2.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid.png, jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-was-able-to-install-into-shared-install-folder.png, win81pro-details.png To test the user experience on Windows, I created three accounts: * nboldt (my own admin user) * dummy (a standard user) * kid (a child user, which is a standard user but with Family Safety logging - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows-8/create-child-account ) Both the child and standard users were able to install JBDS into their own home folders and perform an installation from Central: !jbds8b2-windows8.1-child-user-private-install-updated-via-central.png! !jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-private-install-was-able-to-update-via-central.png! ------ However, there are problems when using an Admin user-installed shared install folder for JBDS. Steps to repro: *As nboldt / admin user* * install JBDS 8.0.0.Beta2 (B104) into W:\shared-install\jbdevstudio (using default ownership/permissions) *As dummy / standard user* * Log in * Launch the shared JBDS * Install something from Central !jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-was-able-to-install-into-shared-install-folder.png! *PROBLEM*: standard user should not be able to install new features into the shared install folder *As kid / child user* * Log in * Launch the shared JBDS * Noted that the suggested path for workspace was the one last used by *dummy user*, to which that user doesn't have read permission !jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid.png! !jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid-error.png! !jbds8b2-windows8.1-standard-user-shared-install-last-used-by-dummy-launched-by-kid-error2.png! *PROBLEM*: should default to current user's home dir, not another user's previous workspace selection
