Remote execution requires permissions to the jobs path 
Category: Problem 
Applies to: Kivati Server 

Users that want to execute jobs remotely on a Kivati Server require file system permissions to the path that contains scheduled jobs.

Details

When a job is executed by Kivati Server, the job's compiled output must first be transfered to the server.  This is done under the context of the user that submitted the job.  Therefore, this user needs read, write, and execute permissions to the directory that jobs are created in, which is controlled by the Scheduled Jobs Path setting in Kivati Server's configuration tool.  Additionally, this user also needs permissions to delete from this directory if they want to delete or cancel the job.

More Information

This is a known issue in Kivati Server and will be addressed in a future release.  As a best practice in the current version, we recommend that you grant users full control to the Scheduled Jobs path, and ensure that access to Kivati Server instances is restricted to trusted users only.
