Console does not start on XP SP2



SP2 tightened DCOM security settings, so when you start the console, it says something like "Error in ATE connection"*.

This is a security permission issue tha can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool."

Do the following:

- Windows Start
- run: dcomcnfg
- Console Root/Component Services/Computers/My computer/DCOM Config/ATE.SimpleScriptPlugin
- right click on properties and go to Security tab
- select in "Launch and Activation Permissions"
- "Customize" and press "Edit"
- Add local userid TW32JS_USER and add activation permission. Then OK OK OK...

After that the console works.
