J090501 - Can’t install GeoViewer without admin privileges
Products:
GeoViewer 3.0Summary:
You understood that GeoViewer required no administrative privileges to install, but during setup you are asked to enter an administrator user ID and password, or you get an error telling you to see your IT administrator.
Cause:
No administrative privileges are required for installation or setup of GeoViewer itself, but some of the prerequisite software (such as Windows .NET Framework 3.5) does require administrative privileges. You may already have all the prerequisite software installed on your computer, but if any of the prerequisite software is missing GeoViewer’s setup process attempts to automatically download and install it. During this process you may be prompted to enter administrative user credentials or instructed to see your IT administrator, depending on your operating system.
