= Windows installer logic for version 6 =

[[T(VersionSix)]]

Major differences from version 5 are:
 * Account-based sandboxing using unprivileged accounts.
 * Moves the BOINC data directory if needed.
 * BOINC executables are in a separate directory.
 * Simplified installer user experience.

[[PageOutline]]

== Sandboxing ==

The installer offers two modes: 'Graphics compatible' and 'Secure'.

Graphics compatible installations is the same as the single-user installation of the v5.
The manager will be responsible for launching the core client, and all applications will be launched in the same security context as the user who logged into the system.
This allows users to see graphics from older as well as newer science applications,
or projects with long running tasks which won't complete for a while.

If the user selects Secure,
the core client will run as a service.
Two user accounts and two groups will be created:

=== Users: ===

 boinc_master:: The core client runs under this account.
 boinc_project:: Apps and graphics app run under this account.

If the computer being installed upon is a domain controller,
then the account names will have the computer name appended on to them.

=== Groups: ===

 boinc_admins:: Members of this group can change the configuration and protection settings for the BOINC client (for example the GUI RPC password and host list) and can also run the BOINC Manager and screensaver.
 boinc_users:: Members of this group can run the BOINC Manager and screensaver.

Initially, each group contains the following members:

|| boinc_admins  || Administrator [[BR]] <Installing User> [[BR]] 'boinc_master' ||
|| boinc_users || Everyone (if 'Allow everyone to use BOINC' is checked), else empty ||

Account passwords are managed as follows:
 * The installer creates a file 'client_auth.xml' in the BOINC data directory containing the name and base64 encoded password of the boinc_project account.
 * The password properties are added to !SecureCustomProperties to prevent them being logged.
 * The password for boinc_master is managed by Windows.

On each installation, both of the account passwords are randomly regenerated.

=== User Rights Assignment ===

||boinc_master||Deny logon locally [[BR]] Deny access to this computer from the network [[BR]] Debug programs [[BR]] Log on as a service [[BR]] Bypass traverse checking||
||boinc_project||Deny logon locally [[BR]] Deny access to this computer from the network||

== Data directory ==

All data, configuration files, and logs will be moved to the following default location:
{{{
Vista:
C:\Users\All Users\BOINC

2000/XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC
}}}

Under the data directory there will be 'projects' and 'slots' directories.

Directories will have the following permissions:

|| BOINC          || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_admins (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_users (Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read) [[BR]] boinc_project (Deny All) ||
|| BOINC\projects || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_admins (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_users (Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read) [[BR]] boinc_project (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) ||
|| BOINC\slots    || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_admins (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_users (Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read) [[BR]] boinc_project (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) ||

Notes: What to do if an organization has disabled the 'Bypass Traverse Checking' user right for Everyone? See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823659 for more details. ''This right can't be denied, it can only be granted. So we can override it by granting the right to boinc_master. I think.''

== Executables directory ==

Same default location as previous versions, C:\Program Files\BOINC

Directory will have the following permissions:

|| BOINC          || SYSTEM (Full Control) [[BR]] Administrators (Full Control) [[BR]] boinc_admins (Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write) [[BR]] boinc_users (Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read) [[BR]] boinc_project (Deny All) ||

== User Interface ==

=== Welcome Screen ===

Same as before.

=== License Screen ===

Same as before.

=== Configuration Screen ===

{{{
Click Next to use installation defaults.
Click Advanced to use customize.

[Advanced] [Next]
}}}

Advanced goes to the advanced configuration page.
Next goes to the Confirmation screen.

=== Advanced Configuration ===

{{{
Data directory: [...] [Browse]
Program directory: [...] [Browse]

[] Launch BOINC on system startup
[] Use BOINC Screensaver
[] Protected application execution.
   If checked, you will have increased protection against faulty BOINC project applications.
   However, this may cause screensaver graphics to not work with older applications.
[] Allow all users on this computer to control BOINC
[Next]
}}}

Checkboxes are off by default.
If any values are present from previous install, use them.
The "Allow users" checkbox is disabled unless the "Protected" checkbox is set.

'Next' goes to 'Confimation' screen.

=== Confirmation Screen ===

Same as before.

== Custom Actions ==

Custom actions are executed in the following sequence:
{{{
    ... MSI: Validates installation package
    ...
    CAValidateSetup
    CAShutdownBOINC
    CAShutdownBOINCManager
    CAShutdownBOINCManager95

    CAMigrateBOINCData (New in Version 6.0)
    ...
    ... MSI: Begin installation process
}}}

=== CAValidateSetup ===

Checks that the parameters passed into the installation program are valid for the installation type. Otherwise it reports an error to the user. This is a backup check for validating the parameters passed in via the command line, if the user is installing via the GUI this shouldn't ever be a problem.

{{{
IF SetupType == 'Single-User' THEN
    IF ALLUSERS == 1 THEN
        ABORT
    END IF
    IF SERVICE* IS NOT NULL THEN

Handles case where user is upgrading from BBC to V6.

{{{
MoveFileEx("C:\\Program Files\\Climate Change Experiment", strInstallDirectory, MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED|MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH);
}}}

=== CACreateBOINCAccounts ===

Creates the two user accounts used for a protected installation.  Passwords are base64 encoded before being stored to disk.

{{{

strComputerName = GetComputerName()
bIsDomainController = IsDomainController()

GetProperty("BOINC_USERNAME", strBOINCUsername)

GetProperty("BOINC_USERNAME", strBOINCUsername)
GetProperty("BOINC_PROJECT_USERNAME", strBOINCProjectUsername)

IF GetGroup("boinc_project") NOT EXISTS THEN
    CreateGroup("boinc_project")
    AddUserToGroup(strBOINCProjectUsername)
END IF

}}}

=== CAMigrateBOINCData ===

Look in the registry for the old data directory, else "C:\Program Files\BOINC".
Move data files from old data dir to all users application data location if the all users application data location doesn't already exist.

{{{
old_data_dir = registry_lookup
MoveFileEx(old_data_dir, strDataDirectory, MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED|MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH);
}}}

== Reverting to a pre-V6 version of BOINC ==

Manually move data dir contents to executables dir, then install old version.

Manually remove BOINC-related accounts and groups.
Note: we can't remove them automatically on uninstall,
otherwise they'd get removed and recreated on each upgrade,
and any group membership changes would be lost.
