Execution over a network Share?

[jheyde]

What I'm trying to do is perform an automated software install remotely using a program called CornerStone. It allows for remote execution of files over groups of computers.

The setup I've got is a Snap server with a network share that holds my exe's. I map the drive to that share and then try to execute the installer file. Everytime I do I get:

AutoIT Error:

Line -1:

Error: Unable to execute the external program. The system cannot find the file specified.

I'm new to this and would appreciate any advice on how to do this. I appreciate everyones time.

Here's my code---

CODE

DriveMapAdd ( "z:", "\\SNAP724226\jheyde" , "","user","password")

sleep (5000)

Run ("GoogleInstall.exe", "z:\")

WinWaitActive ("Open File - Security Warning")

ControlClick ("Open File - Security Warning", "", 4423)

WinWaitActive("Google Updater", "")

Send ("{TAB}")

Send ("{SPACE}")

Sleep (180000)

Send ("{SPACE}")

Send ("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive ("Google Earth Plus")

Send ("{!+F}")

Send ("{UP}")

Send ("{UP}")

Send ("{UP}")

Send ("{ENTER}")

sleep (5000)

Run ("GoogleInstall.exe", "z:\")

WinWaitActive ("Open File - Security Warning")

WinWaitActive("Google Updater", "")

If you want to default the flags in DriveMapAdd(), use 0 vice "", and test the result for error handling before you go blindly on.

Providing a temp dir of "z:" does not necessarily path the executable, so your Run() should have the full path to the .exe file.

Other than that, execution over a network should work fine.
