[OzTFS] Tests being run with Team Build are not passing - security exceptions

[Justin Adler]

Heya folks,     on my local XP machine my test run perfectly - all green ticks. When i run the team build (on the w2k3 build server) the tests do not run anymore. They are all related to some code i've done which starts with this ...   category = PerformanceCounterCategory.Create(GeospacialPerformance._performanceCategoryName, GeospacialPerformance._performanceCategoryDescription, PerformanceCounterCategoryType.SingleInstance, counterList);   As u can quickly see, i'm trying to create my own custom performance counters to help monitor our applications. For some reason, the user account which i must be using with my local XP VSTS machine has sufficient rights, but the Team Build server/account doesn't.   I was afraid of having to figure out what account the build is being run under on the build server (i'm assuming it's the account i installed the product under/as) and then having to give that silly account some special rights to access the registry and perfomance counter stuff.   Could this be done programatically via code. So where i do some perfomance counter stuff / my permon class, i could apply some special attributes or something to allow team build to be 'allowed' the correct .net security? It might seem simple to just give the build useraccount the correct access, but what happens when we load balance. Also, if it's breaking on the build server, it will definately break on the web servers which are load balanced.   Any thoughts, folks? Boy this has been killing me over the last 24 hours :(     EDIT: appologies to the listmanager for accidently sending my initial email to that address, instead of listserver.
