no output from run command

[hellAT]

Hello,

i have a strange problem. Several PC are running a script where i use "ipconfig /all" to get some in. My original script looks like this:

$stream = Run(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /all", '', @SW_HIDE, 2)

While 1

$line = StdoutRead($stream)

$cmdreturn &= $line

If @error Then ExitLoop

WEnd

On two PCs i do not get any result, means $cmdreturn=""

So does someone have an idea why the return value is empty?!? For me, it seems that all PCs are installed in the same way (WinXp Prof, same patchlevel etc). If i open an DOS Box and run "cmd /c ipconfig /all" it looks fine.

thanks in advance / karsten

Have you included Constants.au3?

Your error test is at the wrong place:

$cmdreturn=""
$stream = Run(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /all", '', @SW_HIDE, 2)
while 1
    $line = StdoutRead($stream)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    $cmdreturn &= $line
WEnd
ConsoleWrite('@@ (9) $cmdreturn = ' & $cmdreturn & @CRLF);### Debug Console

Not sure if thats the real problem, you could also capture the STDERR to see if there is any error message displayed....

A short question to ConsoleWrite. My way is to compile the script and then send the exe to the User by mail. Is there a way, to direct the Output to textfile or Popup?
