EXECUTE Command Error

Hi All,

I am getting the following error when I use EXECUTE command in my load script.

The following error occurred:

EXECUTE statement requires Override Security
I am aware that we need to add following entries in the settings.ini file which are as follows:

[Settings 7]

OverrideScriptSecurity=1

And then I need to restart the Engine and Service Dispatcher services.

But for some unknown reason, even after following all the above steps, I still get the same error.

It would really great if any one has an answer to this problem.

Thanks,

I think you need to modify the .ini setting for

AllowExecuteCommand=1
