RunAs to open IE8 does not work

[svaneenoo]

Hi all,

I have a script that works perfectly with Internet Explorer 6, but not with Internet Explorer 8.It opens IE as administrator, opens a page in order to install an activeX control.

In AutoIt the output is:

>"C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\SciTE\..\autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "C:\Documents and Settings\rwd_eenoo\Desktop\Install_ie7_8.au3"

>Exit code: 0 Time: 1.909

This is the code

RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, '"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "http://rwd-apsv/RWDHlp/rwdhlp_sot.htm?url=http://rwd-apsv/gm/?format=doPerformSearch.shtml&source=HLP&P6=RWD_ACTIVEX_INSTALL_SEARCH::&F6=transaction_code&SO=rel&w=40&h=80&pos=1"')

When I try a normal Run, it works...

Does anybody have an idea why this Runas does not work with IE 8?

Any is help is very much appreciated.

Best regards

What if you try your credentials with something else, like just:

RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, 'Notepad.exe "C:\Temp\Test.txt"')

The same problem. So it has nothing to do with IE.

Has to do with the computer config.

I am running windows xp, version 2002, service pack 3

Are you sure the credentials work?

Oh boy, the credentials were incorrect.

Thanks for bringing me back on track.

Now it works

Cheers
