Log script action?

[zichd]

Hi, firstly thanks for great site and scriptin app

Newbie here

Have the following simple script which works well

--------------------------------------------------------

$i = 0

While $i <= 100

WinWaitActive("GetLastError")

Send("{ENTER}")

$i = $i + 1

WEnd

--------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know how to get it to log or email or inform us when the script has caught the "GetLastError" wreaking havoc on my system?

Any sort of notification would suffice

Thanks in advance

msgbox(0,"Notice", "your message here")

2

#include<file.au3>

_FileWriteLog("C:\Notice.log", "Your message here")

I'm not sure why you need a While/WEnd loop around the WinWaitActive line. The script will just sit there and wait for that window to become active. Does the window/message show up several times? If so, just wrap the code below in your loop - you might get 100 e-mails.

I would send it to a pager/phone/PDA:

; get bmail from this link:
; http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions/cmdlinemail/cmdlinemail.htm

WinWaitActive("GetLastError")
Send("{ENTER}")
$S_bmail = "path to bmail.exe"
$S_SMTP_Server_switch = " -s SMTP server name goes here"
$S_TO_address = " -t alias@.com"
$S_FROM_address = " -f AutoIt-Bmail"
$S_Text_Subject = " -a GetLastError"
$S_Text_Body = " -b GetLastError"
Run($S_bmail & $S_SMTP_Server_switch & $S_TO_address & $S_FROM_address & $S_Text_Subject & $S_Text_Body)

Caveat - the code above was not tested after being sanitized - I might have missed a quote/space or two.

Great!, works fine thanks for the help

Do need looping as the machine only reboots about 1once a week and error may popup a few times during the week.

Muchly appreciated
