On a Windows 2008 Small Business Server. (Actually Winodws Server Standard FE SP2). I'm having a smilar issue on a SBS 2003. But I haven't installed scite on that one.

Error...

>"C:Program Files (x86)AutoIt3SciTE..autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "C:SysInfott_SystemStatusGatherer.au3"
C:SysInfott_SystemStatusGatherer.au3 (324) : ==> The requested action with this object has failed.:
$objMessage.Subject = "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME
$objMessage.Subject = "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME^ ERROR
>Exit code: 1 Time: 2.518

Section of code in question....

$oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error", "MyErrFunc")
$objMessage = ObjCreate ("CDO.Message")
With $objMessage
.Subject = "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME
.Sender = "monitor@blah.com"
.From = "monitor@blah.com"
.To = "blah@blah.com"
.TextBody = $body & @CRLF & @CRLF & "Do not reply to this email"
EndWith

With $objMessage.Configuration.Fields
.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "mail.server.com" ; <== SMTP SERVER
.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "monitor+server.com" ; <== SMTP USERNAME

.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout") = 60
.Update
EndWith
$objMessage.Send
exit

I tried changing the code to this...

$oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error", "MyErrFunc")
$objMessage = ObjCreate ("CDO.Message")
;With $objMessage
$objMessage.Subject = "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME
$objMessage.Sender = "monitor@blah.com"
$objMessage.From = "monitor@blah.com"
$objMessage.To = "blah@blah.com"
$objMessage.TextBody = $body & @CRLF & @CRLF & "Do not reply to this email"
EndWith

With $objMessage.Configuration.Fields
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing"[/url]) = 2
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver"[/url]) = "mail.mccls.com" ; <== SMTP SERVER
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate"[/url]) = 1
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername"[/url]) = "monitor+mccls.com" ; <== SMTP USERNAME
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword"[/url]) = "m0nitor" ; <== SMTP PASSWORD
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport"[/url]) = 25
.Item ("[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout"[/url]) = 60
.Update
EndWith
$objMessage.Send
exit

But it didn't help any.

This code is working just fine on a few standard edition servers. ie. not Small Business Servers.

Ideas? Suggestions?

Your first With statement is commented out.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Ooops... that commenting out was part of my troubleshooting, which I did before copying the code and pasting it here. I just now double checked and verified that the problem persists when uncommented. Edited by ant2ne

First suggestion... change from 

tags to [autoit] tags...

Build a MsgBox to test what data @ComputerName has in it on the target OS.

changed code to autoit. The problem machine returns RLSSERVER as @COMPUTERNAME. Which is its computer name.

I also noticed that if I comment out the entire ".Subject =" line, I then get a similar error but on the next uncommented line.

Is it possible that CDO isn't installed on the 2008 server? It's not installed by default.

Ok first of all, in the "Subject" part you tried commenting out, you are missing the trailing "

And second... Before trying to get this to work (and I imagine you didn't post the full code). run this through SyntaxCheckProd (or Beta) first to make sure AutoIT is cool with everything. I get the following:

What is CDO?

Could you be more specific regarding the trailing "? I don't see anyplace where I missed a ".

.Subject = "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME

In order to run that stretch of code you will need to include #include <Inet.au3> at the top.

Here is CDO overview.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa140862%28office.10%29.aspx

Basically, your code is attempting to send an email through CDO, but if you don't have it installed/enabled, your app won't work.

Even with that include, it doesn't pass syntax check. Did you run it yourself? The problem I am seeing with the .Subject is that it your line output ends up being:

"Report for: " DOMAIN "" COMPUTER

But the end of the line isn't wrapped. Shouldn't you use something like this instead?

$objMessage.Subject = Chr(34) & "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME & Chr(34)

See because I see the other objects you have everything encapsulated except for Subject. I'm not sure if that matters but it doesn't look right to me.

Even so, SyntaxCheckProd doesn't seem to like the use of quotes in the .Item lines.

Lets not forget, this code runs pefectly fine on my workstation, and 4 of 6 servers. I don't know how it could be syntax issue.

The two with this error are SBS servers, one 2003 and one 2008. Both have functional exchange servers so I can'e see how CDO would be the issue.

With

$objMessage.Subject = Chr(34) & "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME & Chr(34)

I still get

>"C:Program Files (x86)AutoIt3SciTE..autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "C:SysInfott_SystemStatusGatherer.au3"

C:SysInfott_SystemStatusGatherer.au3 (323) : ==> The requested action with this object has failed.:

.Subject = Chr(34) & "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME & Chr(34)

.Subject = Chr(34) & "Report for: " & @LogonDomain & " " & @COMPUTERNAME & Chr(34)^ ERROR

>Exit code: 1 Time: 2.942

What version of Exchange is running on the servers that work, and the ones that don't? Are they the same?
