Test user/password in _ShellExecuteWaitAsAdmin

[Docfxit]

I know the python script is running.  Is there a way to test the userdomain and userpassword to make sure there isn't a permissions issue in the python script.

My AutoIt script is:

#RequireAdmin
;_ShellExecuteWaitAsAdmin("userlogin","userdomain", "userpassword", 0, "\\server\path_to_batch\batch.bat")

_ShellExecuteWaitAsAdmin("Administrator", "workgroup", "MyPassword", 0, "C:\Batch\CGPLog.bat")

Func _ShellExecuteWaitAsAdmin($sUserName, $sDomain, $sPassword, $iLogonFlag, $sFile, $sParamters = "")
    Local $sCmd = ' /AutoIt3ExecuteLine "ShellExecuteWait(''' & $sFile & ''', ''' & $sParamters & ''', '''', ''runas'')"'
    Return RunAsWait($sUserName, $sDomain, $sPassword, $iLogonFlag, @AutoItExe & $sCmd)
EndFunc   ;==>_ShellExecuteWaitAsAdmin

The bat file I'm trying to run:

cd "C:\Programs\CommuniGate Files\SystemLogs"
Call "C:\Batch\CGPLogSummary.py" 
cmd

The python script isn't reading/writing the files it should.  I'm not getting any errors.

Thanks,

What happens when you try to run the commands manually without autoit?

[Docfxit]

I right click on the bat file and select run as administrator.

I get Access is denied.

Are you using an administrator account?

[Docfxit]

Yes.  The user I am signed on with does have administrator rights.

Hmph. So even on your admin account you cannot access it manually or with AutoIt?

Your alignment looks a bit off, may not be, but looks it to me.

Try replacing your $sCmd and RunWait with this:

Local $sCmd = '"' & @AutoItExe & '" /AutoIt3ExecuteLine "ShellExecuteWait("""' & $sFile & '""", """' & $sParamters & '""", "", "runas")"'
Return RunAsWait($sUserName, $sDomain, $sPassword, $iLogonFlag, $sCmd)

Edit:

BTW, you do have an app on the machine you're trying to run this on by the same name right?  If you're sending this via F5 it uses the AutoIt exe in the AutoIt directory, if you're compiling and sending it, it's using the name and location of the exe you're compiling.

Thank you for the suggestion.

I'm getting an error saying:

Although the new AutoIt code is causing a problem.  I tried running the bat file while logged in as Administrator.  So I think it's a problem with the python script and maybe not the authorization it's running under.

I would like to correct the AutoIt code so that when I get the python script running correctly I will be able to run this under the correct user.

Thanks,

PS:  Does anyone know where I can get help with the python script?

Starting to confuse myself with this.  I don't use this function, but I know you need to concatenate the quotes in case of spaces.

Also the fourth parameter is a verb, I don't see "runas" as an acceptable verb.

Try this I guess:

Local $sCmd = '"' & @AutoItExe & '" /AutoIt3ExecuteLine ' & '"ShellExecuteWait(""' & $sFile & '"", ""' & $sParamters & '"", "", Null)"'

[Docfxit]

That does run without giving me errors.

I will know more when I get the Python script executing correctly.

Thank you very much,
