windows_service attributes run_as_user and run_as_password ignored?

Open michael-tam opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

Has anyone been able to get the run_as_user or run_as_password to work for the windows_service resource? When I tried to run it, the Log On information does not get updated when I look in the Windows Services console.

@jaym Jay -- is this a doc issue or potentially a bug in the chef-client?

sounds like a bug if anything

Do you know of a good way to change the Logon As user for the chef-client service? Right now the only way is through a PowerShell script.
