SUMMARY:
Attempting to shut down the databases from a command line using PROSHUT causes the error:
Invalid shutdown request from <user-id> on console (541)
A Progress 9.1C database started by ProControl (ProService under the default System account) running on Windows 2000 or Windows NT may not be stopped at the command prompt using PROSHUT unless the user has local administrative rights.
EXPLANATION:
Error 541 means the user attempting to shutdown a database did not start it. ProService, under the System account, started the database. So, the user does not have the authority to shut it down. The user would need to have local administrative rights to shutdown the database.
Even a user who is part of a domain admin login account, who by default, belongs to the local administrator's group, does not inherit all of the rights and privileges of the local administrator.
SOLUTION:
The workaround is to add a local user account with the same name and password as the domain login account. Add the new users to the local administrator's group. This will allow the user to stop any database started by ProService.
NOTE: This applies to any action that involves a Windows service.
