I have a Scientific Linux 6 machine in my office which I do not have admin rights to but work from. I would like to use Ctags using vim there. However how can I install this if I do not have admin rights? Is there anything similar I use or maybe a plugin?
cheers,
Alex.

When I tried to manually uninstall VMWare Workstation 14... It gives me this error...Windows installer Service Could Not Be Accessed .... I'm using corporate machine, could this possibly mean I have to contact my sys admins and have them remove it? Has anyone had this problem before and solved it?
I wasn't going to post this - I think I misunderstood your scenario - but here goes, maybe see if some ideas pop up:
A few questions:
Does this happen with other packages on the box as well?
Do you see the same problem with the VMWare package on other boxes?
Do co-workers - with similar login credentials and rights - see the same problem(s)?
Did you ask you system administrator what policies apply for the install / repair of MSI packages? Maybe group policy blocks them? Is this a package you downloaded yourself, or is it "blessed" by a sys-admin?
Do you know if this is a 32-bit or 64-bit package? Do you have a tool to open the MSI? If you got Orca - open the MSI and go to View => Summary Information... - what does the Platform field say?
When things like this happens, you should generally first hit the vendor site looking for user forums, knowledge bases, support contact information etc... Unless you have a service agreement, in which case you should obviously just call them and enjoy some nice waiting music.

Maybe try msiexec /regserver first - it seems to be the most harmless option. My guess is that this is a policy thing which locks the whole Windows Installer service from running. What security software do you have installed on the box?
I am developing a web application ofline using Xampp. I am working offline for this an a machine with administrator rights. I tried running it on my work machine but Apache and SQL will not start because of the ports. What rights do I need to set from the admin user in order to give all time acces for this programs? (I do need to go to the IT desk and ask them to do it, so I need a working solution)
It was an easy fix after all. I just asked the IT staff to log in as administrator and give permisions to the xampp folder for everything. This does not endager the company policy.
I'm updating our installer for Windows 7 (based on Inno Setup). What came into my mind is that if the user does not run the installer with admin permissions, later on the application cannot be launched directly from the installer. So I'd like to enforce him to run the installer with administrator permissions. So how to do it? Should I stop the installation process and tell him to run it with the right permissions?
If so - how to identify if he uses admin permissions?
Looking for best practices. Please advice...

One of the best ways to install is using the web platform installer.

Not command line, but powerful because you usually need to install other things also. Lets you select everything and then install the bundle.
Not IIS but you could always install Apache!
I used this.

On page: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=a45059af-47a8-4c96-afe3-93dab7b5b658 you can find installation for AD LDS. It's actually some kind of update for Win7. When your installation is done, to install AD LDS you have installation wizard in Control Panel/Administrative tool. Also, in same window you have ADSI Edit to get approach to AD LDS instances.
