    A particular job with nant script fails with this error "Create process failed for su"

     

    Any help is highly appreciated.

    sounds like you were trying to do an su. does that user have permission

    to issue an su?

    No. the same user. However it is resolved by installing the workload automation client again.

    original install was probably bad. oh well.

    keep an eye on it. maybe someone is going on that machine and stepping

    on java etc.

    check to see if windows or anything else was updated on that machine.

    I have seen windows updates step on the agents before.

    Can you use su on Windows jobs? We are in a pickle with this currently.

    Yes, Lenn. We were able to resolve it based on the replies from CA community. We had to repair the agent to resolve the problem.
