Hello everyone!

I'm trying to run MBSA 2.2 with the following command but it ends with "Cannot load security CAB file" error in Windows 7 client. Windows XP works fine:

@ECHO OFF
mkdir %windir%\temp\mbsa\
copy mbsa %windir%\temp\mbsa\
%windir%\temp\mbsa\mbsacli.exe /xmlout /wi /nvc /nd /catalog %windir%\temp\mbsa\wsusscn2.cab >> \\fileshare\MBSA_Reportsssssss.xml
rmdir /s /q %windir%\temp\mbsa\

MBSA folder includes all the needed files: mbsacli.exe, wsusscn02.cab & wusscan.dll. Remote Registry, Server, Windows Update & Workstation services are running + File and Printer Sharing service is enabled. This is a fresh Win7 install with the latest Windows Update Agent.

If I run the command line without the variables (mbsacli.exe /xmlout /wi /nvc /nd /catalog wsusscn2.cab >> MBSA_Reportsssssss.xml) in the correct folder I get that same error. I've also deleted & re-downloaded/copied the cab file just in case if it got corrupted during the first copy.

Are there any other requirements in Win7 to get this work locally with mbsacli.exe?

Thanks!

Edit: it was a user rights problem

Can you explain how you fixed your user rights to get access? I keep getting access denied when I run this simple script even as a DA

mbsacli /listfile <D:\wsus>\Servers.txt /n os+iis+sql+password

You must run the command promptas administrator.
