MrBedo 1 Posted March 20, 2006 Hi I'm using the following command: Run("msiexec /i g:\ts3\ts3.msi /qn SERVER="myserver" ADDLOCAL="ALL"") If I run this from the "Run" dialog box in Windows it works fine, but from within an autoit script I recieve an "unknown function name" error when it gets to the myserver part. The SERVER="myserver" and ADDLOCAL="ALL" are additional parameters specifict to the ts3.msi file, so I'm guessing it's something to do with this. Anyone got any ideas what I can do about this ? many thanks rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadBoy 3 Posted March 20, 2006 Run("msiexec /i g:\ts3\ts3.msi /qn SERVER="myserver" ADDLOCAL="ALL"") You need to double the quotes around "my server" too Run("msiexec /i g:\ts3\ts3.msi /qn SERVER=""myserver"" ADDLOCAL=""ALL"" ") should work i guess My little company: Evotec (PL version: Evotec) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marc 34 Posted March 20, 2006 (edited) It's the Quote-Signs... either use doubled quotes (makes reading more difficult) or use ' instead: Run('msiexec /i g:\ts3\ts3.msi /qn SERVER="myserver" ADDLOCAL="ALL" ') best regards Marc edit: madboy has been faster...need to improve my typing speed Edited March 20, 2006 by Marc It's my job to comfort the disturbed and to disturb the comfortable.

MHz 80 Posted March 20, 2006 1st time that I have seen anyone use quotes in a MSI propertyname value. No spaces used, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
