- Modify permissions to the Logs folder
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, grant the SoftGrid Virtual Application Server logon account the required permissions.
By default, the path of the Logs folder is "%ProgramFiles%\Softricity\SoftGrid Server\Logs." This path is configured in the local registry on the SoftGrid Virtual Application server. By default, the SoftGrid Virtual Application Server service logon account is the Local System account.

- Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then press ENTER.
- Right-click SoftGrid Virtual Application Server, and then click Properties.
- Click the Log On tab and note the logon account.
- Exit Services.
- Make sure that the logon account has Read permissions. To do this, follow these steps.
Note By default, the SoftGrid Server key and subkeys are configured to inherit permissions from the parent key. If this configuration has been disabled, you must add the account to each subkey.- Start Registry Editor.
- Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Softricity
. - In the details pane, right-click Softricity, and then click Permissions.
- Make sure that the account that you noted in step 1c has Read permissions.
- Determine the path of the Logs folder. To do this, follow these steps:
- In Registry Editor, locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Softricity\SoftGrid Server\CurrentVersion
- In the details pane, right-click SOFTRICITY_SOFTGRID_LOG_DIR, and then click Modify.
- Note the path of the Logs folder, and then click Cancel.
- Exit Registry Editor.
- Make sure that the logon account has Modify permissions. To do this, follow these steps:
