Hi,
this morning I was playing with the windows installer stuff and I've
noticed something
probably important: the 2.6-beta installer does not work due to permission
issues
on my win7 vm, but if I build the installer using a recent NSIS, with the
AccessControl
plugin, and following the instructions for the win-ng installer
(
http://docs.geoserver.org/2.0.0/developer/release-guide/index.html#build-windows-installer-new
)
then that works fine and I have full write access, using the scripts and
materials
found here:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/tree/master/src/release/installer/win

As noted in a separate thread, I indeed found some lines in the nsis
installer
script that are apparently giving full write rights to the install folder.

I am wondering... may it be the case that maybe the windows build server
generating the
windows installer is using a old version of nsis or a old version of the
nsis script?

For reference, and for those that want to try it out, here is the windows
installer
I've build following the old release instructions linked above:

Cheers
