StripTDS exe is giving error Access is denied

Hello,



I am using TestComplete application for testing an application developed in Delphi. before I run project in test complete I wanted to strip the Debug information from then application exe for which i am trying to use stripTDS exe. But when I try to do this it gives me error as follows -


Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.



C:\Users\shasanep>stripTDS SDKHILSimul.exe

AutomatedQA TDS Debug Info Processor

(C) Copyright AutomatedQA Corp.



SDKHILSimul.exe: Access is denied.



0 module(s) processed, 1 module(s) failed.



Now the evironment on the machine where I am tring to do this is - it is windows 7 machine, I have installed TestComplete and the other application that has to be tested using TestComplete. Delphi is not installed on the machine



I copied the exe to strip the information and StripTDS exe in one folder where I have required admin rights also. Still it is giving Access is denied error.



Please let me know StripTDS exe requires anything more to execute and create .TDS file.



If I try to strip debug info from the exe where delphi is installed it works properly. What this problem could be?

  • Hi Prachi,


     


    It sounds like there are some issues with permissions on your computer. Also, please make sure that the SDKHILSimul app isn't run in the moment when you create debug information.
