jfones Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 I am very new to AutoIt. I am working on various install scripts and am repeatedly running into the same problem of a security warning when launching the file. Below is an example of one of my scripts. It is currently using the 'run' command to launch the setup file, but I have also tested with 'shellexecute' and '_rundos'. What is the best/recommended command for launching a setup file from a UNC network path and how can I circumvent this security warning? Thanks in advance! ; ********** Define Parameters ********** #RequireAdmin #include <date.au3> #include <File.au3> #include <Process.au3> ;required for _RunDOS command below Local $tCur, $logfile $tCur = _Date_Time_GetLocalTime() $logfile = 'C:\AI_SQLnativeclient_Install.LOG' AutoItSetOption('MouseCoordMode', 0) ; ********** Launch installer ********** Local $32bitsetup Local $64bitsetup $32bitsetup = "\\domainname.local\DFS1\Z GM Info Technology\Install\SQL Native Client\sqlncli.msi" $64bitsetup = "\\domainname.local\DFS1\Z GM Info Technology\Install\SQL Native Client\sqlncli_x64.msi" _FileWriteLog($logfile, '**********************************************************************' & @CRLF) _FileWriteLog($logfile, 'BEGIN PROCESS' & @CRLF & @CRLF & @CRLF) If @OSArch = 'X86' Then _FileWriteLog($logfile, 'FILE PATH - ' & $32bitsetup & @CRLF) ElseIf @OSArch = 'X64' Then _FileWriteLog($logfile, 'FILE PATH - ' & $32bitsetup & @CRLF) EndIf run('\\domainname.local\DFS1\Z GM Info Technology\Install\SQL Native Client\sqlncli.msi') ; temp test in place of if/then below If @OSArch = 'X86' Then Run($32bitsetup) ;MsgBox(0, 'path', $32bitsetup) ;temporary test messagebox in place of run command above ElseIf @OSArch = 'X64' Then Run($64bitsetup) ;MsgBox(0, 'path', $64bitsetup) ;temporary test messagebox in place of run command above EndIf
jguinch Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 This kind of warning is a standard behaviour of Windows, according to the Internet Explorer configuration. To avoid a security warning appears when you launch a program from a network path, just add the server name in the Intranet Zone of Internet Explorer (for example, add file://MyServername when the program is stored in \\MyServername\someshare\program.exe). Of course, you can automate in your script (best way should be the use of a Group Policy if you have the possibility) : Local $sServername = "MyServername" RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\" &$sServername, "file", "REG_DWORD", 2) ; add file://MyServername site in the Intranet Zone Spoiler Network configuration UDF, _DirGetSizeByExtension, _UninstallList Firefox ConfigurationArray multi-dimensions, Printer Management UDF
