walle Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Hey! I'm using the torrent tracker Utorrent, and it got a features that it lauches a .exe file after the torrent file downloaded. I notice that it wont load .exe converted files that I'm converted from .au3. Tried thousand of other .exe, and even converted .bat -->.exe and all of them work. What's wrong, can i converted them in some other way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SmOke_N Posted November 27, 2006 Moderators Share Posted November 27, 2006 Just changing the extension of a file doesn't make it the type of file you are changing the extension to. Use the Compiler in SciTe (under tools) to compile and make it an actual .exe. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHz Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 An au3 file needs an interpreter to run., If you need further help then we may need to see your script that launches this executable to evaluate it further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 (edited) If I'm understanding this correctly, you made an .au3 file in autoit and it works, but you want to compile it to .exe so you could have it run from uTorrent. so you then used AutoIt's converter to convert it to an .exe, but it still won't work in your torrent thing. Am I on the right track? If so, one thing that might be worth trying is removing the UPX Compression on the .exe when you compile it. Not sure it will work, but it couldn't really hurt anything to try. Edited November 27, 2006 by Paulie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walle Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Well, that didn't work either =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P388l3s Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I know that uTorrent is also packed with UPX maybe it's an incompatibility with 2 UPX's running together, just guessing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walle Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 (edited) kk, thx for the information Well, don't think we gonna solve this, so start working on a "Work around". For the moment I'm using a converted .bat file that will open my converted .au3 file. But the thing is, my script uses the command "@scriptname", and I changes the scripts name everytime I use it. So every time I need to change the scipts titel/name I need to change the .bat file and then recomplie it. Very frustrating! Edit: Is there a function that could reconise if the torrent file has finshed downloading?? Edited November 27, 2006 by walle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
