To mitigate this issue, log into ISS, and go to Manage Users. Search for the lawson user and click the Edit button. On the Basic tab, set “RunAs Enabled” to “YES” and click save. Wait for the configuration to take effect, or run a stoplaw/adminlaw/startlaw.

If you are not using ISS, the Landmark command to set the RunAs is:

secadm actor enablerunas lawson

After running this command, run the stoplaw/adminlaw/startlaw.
