Hi,
I'm creating a custom action that executes a script on a database. The problem is that the connectios uses intergrated security, so when I try to open the connection i get the error: Login Failed for user 'Domain\ComputerName$'.
When i check the identity on the custom action (using System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent()
) I always get "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM"
but I'm running the installer under my account which has enough privileges on the Database.
How can I run the custom action under the real user runnig the msi file or solve this problem in any other way?
