BPCM Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Hello, I made a small test case to show whats happening: #RequireAdmin Local $command = "winmgmt -standalonehost" ConsoleWrite("----------RUN AS---------" & @CR) ConsoleWrite(_RunAsTest($command)) ConsoleWrite("-----------RUN-----------" & @CR) ConsoleWrite(_RunTest($command)) Func _RunTest($command) Local $text = '' Local $str = StringFormat("%s /c ""%s""", @ComSpec, $command) Local $Pid = Run($str, @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, 8) While 1 $text &= StdoutRead($Pid, False, False) If @error Then ExitLoop Sleep(10) WEnd Return $text EndFunc ;==>_RunTest Func _RunAsTest($command) Local $text = '' Local $str = StringFormat("%s /c ""%s""", @ComSpec, $command) Local $Pid = RunAs(@UserName, @ComputerName, "AdministratorsPassword", 4, $str, @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, 8) While 1 $text &= StdoutRead($Pid, False, False) If @error Then ExitLoop Sleep(10) WEnd Return $text EndFunc ;==>_RunAsTest Console Output: ----------RUN AS--------- Service configuration changes succeeded. Please stop and restart Winmgmt service for changes to take effect. -----------RUN----------- Service configuration changes failed I am using the built-in 'Administrator' account when I execute the script, and I am testing this on Windows 2008 R2. I have also tried changing the 'logon_flag' in RunAs() to check if one of the flags will cause it to behave the same way Run() does; there is no difference among them. Does anyone know a way I can get this to work without RunAs()? I would prefer leveraging _RunDos() Since it will return the commands exit code, but any workaround would be greatly appreciated? Thanks, BPCM Edited August 7, 2013 by BPCM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Try adding #RequireAdmin at the top of your script. 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.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

BPCM Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Unfortunately, the rusults are the same with or without #RequireAdmin. I should add that I am using the built-in 'Administrator' account when I execute the script, and that this is Windows 2008 R2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willichan Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I couldn't help but notice that you are passing "" as the working directory for Run() and @SystemDir as the working directory for RunAs(). Not that it should make any difference with winmgmt, but if you are trying to compare the two functions, you should supply the same parameters.

BPCM Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Awesome! That did the trick, it looks like i'll need an x86 and x64 version of the exe since this is a mixed environment. Thanks very much for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
