Profile creation fails on Windows operating system

The Profile Management Tool or manageprofiles command on IBM BPM might fail on the Microsoft Windows operating system if it is launched without administrative privilege.

To install or run pmt.sh on Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, you must elevate your Microsoft Windows user account privileges. If you do not use the correct privileges the profile creation will fail and you will receive an SQL1092N message in the log which indicates that the user does not have authority to perform the requested actions. Whether you are an administrative user or a non-administrative user, right-click the pmt.bat file and select Run as administrator.

Alternatively, use the runas command at the command line.

For example, the following command can run be executed from the INSTALL_ROOT\bin\ProfileManagement directory:

runas /user:MyAdminName /env pmt.bat
Non-administrative users are prompted for the administrator password.

To install or run the manageprofiles command on Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, you must elevate your Microsoft Windows user account privileges using the runas command. Remember to put double quotation marks around the manageprofiles command and all parameters.

For example, the following command can run be executed from the INSTALL_ROOT\bin directory:

runas /env /user:MyAdminName " manageprofiles -create -templatePath  INSTALL_ROOT/profileTemplates/BPM/default.procctr" 
Non-administrative users are prompted for the administrator password.
