edumacate me please?


Recommended Posts

I've been using this for a while but I'd say it fails about 10% of the time. Not a big deal but I'm a noob and would like input. I know the experienced coders here are going to break down and cry but any suggestions are welcome. Even if it means scrapping all my "code".

This script is run as frequently as hourly or infrequently as daily to update the virus definitions for Symantec Antivirus.

I think my two main problems (aside from being a noob) are the download failing and how I prevent duplicate instances from running (couldn't get singelton to work). Please advise if more commenting in the code is necessary. Thanks.

P.S. this only works on SAV 8+ client and Win XP.

I switched to using wget instead of the builtin download functions of AutoIt and it is close to 100% effective now. The only disadvantage is the tool is now 500k instead of 210k

Wow, two identical issues tonight. One easy answer.

Try adding this routine at the beginning of your script to prevent multiple instances from running.

$sVersion = "Updater"

If WinExists($sVersion) Then Exit

AutoItWinSetTitle($sVersion)

Sleep(100)
WEnd; download with system traytip progress in percent
If FileGetSize(@Tempdir & "\rapidreleasevirusdefinition.exe") <> $size Then
    MsgBox(48,"Error","Download failed!")
Have you tried a sleep between WEnd and If FileGetSize? Perhaps the download is not really done before you check the size??? Just a thought....

Thanks, that method is a bit "cleaner". Wish I could figure out _singleton B)

Thanks for the reply. I thought of that and tried adding some sleep(####) and coffee and some swear words... The problem is the download is failing. I think the FTP server OR their connection OR my connection sucks? Anyway, wget is working like a champ :o , plus it can retry if necessary, plus it seems to be faster, plus it has passive / active capabilities etc...
