Note: Permissions indicated should be set for the given directories and all sub-directories. All products should have at least “read” access to their own installation directories (with the above additional permissions).

Using Windows User Account Control (UAC) may cause various issues with permissions on directories not being set (as above), services not created or started correctly, etc. If the administration policy for your installation does not mandate the use of UAC on the installation server for Semaphore then you may want to disable it to avoid these types of issues. This can be done as follows:

  • Start Control Panel
  • Click on “User Accounts”
  • Select the “Change User Account Control settings” option
  • Change the level on the slider to the lowest setting (“Never notify”)
  • Press Ok to save changes
