Shylan · #1 04-27-2006, 09:27 AM

I downloaded EQ2 Auto Maps.. I have reinstalled and Updated Windows Xp I am running. At Auto install this is the message I get even when I completely reinstalled and started from the beginning ...
Error writing Eq2.ini File system UnAuthorizedAccessException: Access to the path C:\program files\sony\everquest II\eq2.ini is denied at system.IO.Filestream.ctor (String path, Filemode, file access, file share, Int32 buffersize, boolean use Async, String msg path, Boolean bfromproxy) at system.IO filestream.ctor(stringpath, filemode mode) at windows application7 Form1. Read Eq2ini()

Hope someone can help me with this..
Thanks alot for your help..

The application doesn't have permission to access that file location. Are you running as with admin privelages?

When a get a moment i'll slap together a tutorial on how to set permissions for EQ2Map if anyone is having issues with it.

Thanks for responding. I am not sure regarding the Admin Privaledges?
How does one check that?
Appreciate any help.. Worked on this over 5 hours..

So maybe with some help eventually can get this to work..

Go to the Control Panel and open up the User Accounts. The bottom half of the window should have all the profiles created on the computer listed with their access levels below each of the names (such as Computer Administrator or Limited). If you're profile is labeled as Limited, then you won't be able to install many programs (if any at all) under it.

I checked the Admin and I am set to Admin on my system..
I went in and checked and I am not set to limited.
Any other Ideas? Thanks so much for trying to help.

OK, watch this space, ill run through granting permissions to eq2map and then post some steps to it, hopefully tonight if I don't die at the gym.

Problem:
I have downloaded the EQ2map updater and installed it. But when I try to run it I get the following Error Message "The application failed to initialize properly (0x0000135). I uninstalled it and downloaded it again. It still does the same thing.

Solution:
You must have The Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 or greater for this program to run
The Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 can be downloaded either from this direct download link or if you prefer you can get it from windows update.
