Network Path....Read From Text File

[Bradman]

I need some helpplease. I have this script that reads from a text file that has computer names along with the path, line by line.

For example:

Line 1 "C:\SCRIPTS\delprof.exe /C:\\PCNAME-XXXX-01 /P "

Line 2 "C:\SCRIPTS\delprof.exe /C:\\PCNAME-XXXX-02 /P "

This will give me a grand total of 21 systems on 21 lines in the text file.

The script works just fine when it reads a local path such as.

Line 1 C:\SCRIPTS\delprof.exe

Line 2 C:\SCRIPTS\delprof.exe

Ect.

I keep getting an error that says the parameter is wrong on line.18 the Run($line) command when I switch to the network paths.

"C:\SCRIPTS\delprof.exe /C:\\PCNAME-XXXX-01 /P " works fine when it is NOT read from the text file.

I am not sure what to do at this point. You will have to forgive my ignorance. I have never done any programming or scripting until just 6 weeks ago.

I have tried everything I know (limited knowledge). I would appreciate some help or direction.

Thanks,

Bradman the NOOB

Below is my code.

CODE

$g_szVersion = "My Script 1.1"

If WinExists($g_szVersion) Then Exit

AutoItWinSetTitle($g_szVersion)

Opt("WinWaitDelay",250)

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4)

Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",1)

Opt("MouseCoordMode",0)

Opt("RunErrorsFatal", 0)

#include <Date.au3>

HotKeySet("^!x", "MyExit")

RunAsSet("XXXXX", "XX", "XXXXXXXXX",2)

$file = FileOpen("C:\SCRIPTS\SYS_NAMES.txt", 0); text file has the delprof.exe path ie "C:\SCRIPTS\Delprof.exe" local for the test

While 1

$line = FileReadLine($file)

If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop

If @error = -1 Then MsgBox(16, 'WARNING', 'UNABLE TO READ FILE OR END OF FILE!',5)

Sleep(1000)

Run($line)

If @error Then MsgBox(16, 'WARNING', 'DELPROF.EXE DID NOT RUN!',5)

WinActivate("C:\SCRIPTS\Delprof.exe","")

WinWaitActive("C:\SCRIPTS\Delprof.exe","",8)

Sleep(1000)

Send("Y")

Sleep(1000)

Send("{ENTER}")

If ProcessExists("delprof.exe") Then ProcessWaitClose("delprof.exe")

If @ERROR Then

$file = FileOpen("C:\SCRIPTS\DELETE_PROFILE_LOG.txt", 9)

FileWrite($file,"UNABLE TO ACCESS REMOTE SYSTEM: ")

FileWrite($file,$line & @CRLF)

FileWrite($file, (_NowDate()) & @CRLF)

FileWrite($file, (_NowtIME(3)) & @CRLF)

FileWrite($file, " " & @CRLF)

FileClose($file)

EndIf

Wend

MsgBox(32, 'SYSTEMS LIST COMPLETE!', ' ALL SYSTEMS ON LIST PROCESSED! ATTEMPTED DELETION OF PROFILES COMPLETE!'); I use this message box as a way of controlling the test when the loop is running!

FileClose($file)

RunAsSet()

Func MyExit()

Exit

EndFunc

Not sure. Perhaps your RunAsSet is failing?

Returns 1--regardless of success. (If the login information was invalid, subsequent Run/RunWait commands will fail....)

With some changes that may help with the script in general.

I am not sure if it is the Runas.....I can get a single system / path to work but not able to get the script to read from the file when using the network paths.

I have gotten the local path to read fine from the file.

I will try your changes at work in the morning and post a reply.

TY

Same thing, the Runasset works fine, as does the Isadmin. I still get an error on the Run($line) cmd. I am not sure if it is syntax related or something else.

TY for checking it out!

I will play around with the script some more today at work.
