LUA Buglight 2.0 - preview

Attached to this blog post is a PREVIEW VERSION of LUA Buglight 2.0.  LUA Buglight is a utility that helps identify "LUA bugs" in desktop applications -- the bugs that appear when the application is run as a standard user instead of as an administrator.

Some of the improvements in LUA Buglight 2.0 over its predecessor:

  • Much better Vista support
  • Streamlined UI and improved flow
  • Identifies more bugs
  • On XP, not restricted to using a local account to create the admin context
  • On Vista, prompts for elevation just one time per session instead of for each test
  • User options saved to the registry

There are more improvements and refinements that I want to make, but I think you'll find it is quite usable now.  And I promised some audiences here at Tech*Ed that I would post a preview version here prior to my Friday morning session introducing LUA Buglight 2.0. :-)

Note that I haven't written up new documentation yet, and that these binaries have not been signed yet.

Update, June 14:   Yes - meant to mention - LUA Buglight is designed only for x86.  I'll add a processor check on startup.

Update, November 6: Removing the attachment, because the Second Preview version is now available here.

    LuaBuglight 2.0 (PREVIEW VERSION) does not work on Vista 64. At my first attempt, I get these errors after selecting the executable to run, and clicking start: Error 1:

GrantSeImpersonatePrivilege

CmdLine = 6036 ProcID = 6036 Unable to start LUA Buglight kernel driver.  (Might be a version issue.)  Error = 1275

OK  

Without accepting the error, a short delay of a few seconds, you also get Error 2:

LuaBuglight

Timed out waiting for LBLTokenHelper-Vista.exe process to complete.

OK  

Subsequent attempts yeild a different error:

GrantSeImpersonatePrivilege

CmdLine = 2720 ProcID = 2720 Unable to start LUA Buglight kernel driver.  (Might be a version issue.)  Error = 3

OK

    So, I guess we have a feature request.  When you get the 32bit version finalized and code signed and all pretty, could you create one for 64-bit as well? You do good work, and I have enjoyed your classes here at TechEd 2008!
