Command woks in CMD but nothing happens when run AUTOIT - (Moved)

[cesinha87]

I am building a script that will connect remote to a system using PSEXEC and run a command to output to txt file. When I run in the AutoIt nothing happens, meaning I don't see the txt file getting create in the @TempDir\GetCert but if I copy the command that AutoIT just executed and paste in the CMD everything works fine. As you can see ConsoleWrite I tried everything, @ComSpec, I tried C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe, etc. Again if I copy the entire command from the AutoIT output and paste on CMD it works just fine

Moved to the appropriate forum, as the AutoIt Example Scripts forum very clearly states:

I only see this line:

ConsoleWrite ("""C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe""" & " /c """ & $SysInternal_Loc & """ \\" & $System_Loc & " """ & $vtp_loc & """ /GetCertChain """ & $FileLocation & """ > """ & @TempDir & "\GetCert" & "\" & $ProcessName & "-Cert.txt""")

This won't excecute it, only write it to the window in the bottom of Scite.

Maybe something like:

$sPSExecString="""C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe""" & " /c """ & $SysInternal_Loc & """ \\" & $System_Loc & " """ & $vtp_loc & """ /GetCertChain """ & $FileLocation & """ > """ & @TempDir & "\GetCert" & "\" & $ProcessName & "-Cert.txt"""

ConsoleWrite ("Debug output:"&$sPSExecString&@CRLF)
Runwait($sPSExecString,"",@SW_HIDE)

You could also use run, combined with StdoutRead to read the input directly into AutoIT if you were going to further process the output in AutoIT, rather than relying on a text file.

[cesinha87]

The code is working when run the command the problem I am not able to export the data to a text file. As you can see in the screenshot, AutoIT runs the PSexec and exports the cert successfully in the cmd but this data is not in variable. I tried in the code use > and does not create the file through AutoIT, but the output is correct

Now I am trying to use the STDOUTREAD and not working....at this point all I want is to export the data store in the variable $PSEXEC_RUN

 

$sPSExecString="""" & $SysInternal_Loc & """ \\" & $System_Loc & " """ & $vtp_loc & """ /GetCertChain """ & $FileLocation & """"

ConsoleWrite ($sPsExecString)
$PSEXEC_Run=Run($sPsExecString)


MsgBox(0, "CertResult", StdoutRead ($PSEXEC_Run))
;MsgBox(0, "CertResult", StderrRead ($PSEXEC_Run))

Try this :

$PSEXEC_Run=Run($sPsExecString,"", @SW_SHOW, $STDOUT_CHILD)
ProcessWaitClose ($PSEXEC_Run)
MsgBox(0, "CertResult", StdoutRead ($PSEXEC_Run))

 

[cesinha87]

I am very close to accomplish what I want, just need little more help. I can't figure out why my STDOUT READ is cutting a portion of the command. When I run the command locally in the CMD I get the text file on the right, the highlight portion is the portion I am missing from my Stdout Read in my AUTOIT. Looks like it's running PSEXEC in a loop and it's stopping from complete the first command. 

This how the command looks like now:

 

$sPSExecString="""" & $SysInternal_Loc & """ \\" & $System_Loc & " """ & $vtp_loc & """ /GetCertChain """ & $FileLocation & """"

ConsoleWrite ($sPsExecString)
$PSEXEC_Run=Run($sPsExecString,"", @SW_SHOW, 8)
ProcessWaitClose ($PSEXEC_Run,10)

$sOutput=""

 While 1
        $sOutput &= StdoutRead($PSEXEC_Run)
        If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error.
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", $sOutput)
    WEnd

$Stdout_cert=$sOutput

 $temp_filecreate=FileOpen (@TempDir & "\GetCert\" &  $ProcessName & "-Cert.txt", 10)
 FileWrite ($temp_filecreate, $Stdout_cert)
 FileClose ($temp_filecreate)

Your msgbox should be outside the loop...

Nine thank you for helping me....I tried that as well. No Lucky

Maybe this : 

Local $sOutput="",$sRead 

 While 1
   $sRead = StdoutRead($PSEXEC_Run)
   if $sRead = "" then ExitLoop
   $sOutput &= $sRead
WEnd

MsgBox (0,"",$sOutput)

 

[cesinha87]

This is what I have so far and for some reason I am not able to pull the full data using AutoIT

$sPSExecString="""" & $SysInternal_Loc & """ \\" & $System_Loc & " """ & $vtp_loc & """ /GetCertChain """ & $FileLocation & """"


ConsoleWrite ($sPsExecString)
$PSEXEC_Run=Run($sPsExecString,"", @SW_SHOW, 8)
ProcessWaitClose ($PSEXEC_Run)


Local $sOutput="",$sRead

 While 1
   $sRead = StdoutRead($PSEXEC_Run)
   if $sRead = "" then ExitLoop
   $sOutput &= $sRead
WEnd

MsgBox (0,"",$sOutput)


$Stdout_cert=$sOutput
 $temp_filecreate=FileOpen (@TempDir & "\GetCert\" &  $ProcessName & "-Cert.txt", 10)
 FileWrite ($temp_filecreate, $Stdout_cert)
 FileClose ($temp_filecreate)

Copying the command from AutoIT output and paste in the CMD, this is what I get

 

That's not what I see in the MSGBOX or the txt that AutoIT creates
