Zambra Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I'm running several scripts in more then 1000 machines. In about 1% of then when I run the compiled script, the scripts are closing without error message, just closing.I try to compile the follow script in many diferents versions of AutoIt.The anti-virus is not running. I try to use the filemon and the process explorer and none relevant results was found.All machines are 32 bits. In 64-bit machines, this is not happening.WHILE 1 Sleep(500) WEnd -----------------------------------------------------------------To a lot of people, the Sky is the limit.

WHILE 1 Sleep(500) WEnd Are you saying that a compiled version of the simple While loop you showed closes? If so then I would guess that something is closing it, and since SpyBot for example, detects recently compiled versions of AutoIt as malware (reported to SpyBot and apparently a fix in the next update) I would expect that the 1% of machines have some malware detection software that falsely detects AutoIt as harmful and shuts it down. Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

water Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Last week I had a similar problem. A compiled script was working fine on a lot of PCs but crashing on a single PC. After some investigation I found the problem to be caused by a wrong working directory in the users link definition on his desktop. The script was reading an ini file from the working directory, didn't find it but unfortunately didn't catch the error to display a message. So: Check the environment!

Inverted Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) You mean there are a few PCs where no compiled script works ? The can't even start ? (try not using upx, long shot I know) Edited July 8, 2009 by Inverted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 If you have a machine where you can reproduce the problem I would do the following:Install the full AutoIt / Scite PackageOpen your script in Scite and run itIf you get any error messages try to solve the problemIf you don't get any message insert #AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Debug_Mode=N in your script and again run it from Scite and see what the script does My UDFs and Tutorials: Spoiler UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2022-02-19 - Version 1.6.1.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsOutlookEX (2021-11-16 - Version 1.7.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX_GUI (2021-04-13 - Version 1.4.0.0) - DownloadOutlook Tools (2019-07-22 - Version 0.6.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - WikiPowerPoint (2021-08-31 - Version 1.5.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiTask Scheduler (NEW 2022-07-28 - Version 1.6.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Wiki Standard UDFs:Excel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - WikiWebDriver - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 The next thing I would do is write a log file. At some significant points in your code (at the beginning, before and after reading/writing files, before you start a loop ..) write a record with some meaningful data (@HomePath, @ScriptFullPath, @WorkingDir, @NumParams, returncode of file operation, counter for your loop ...) with _FileWriteLog.

There is no logic. In one of the machines, I delete the windows user profile and create again and the problem stop. But on the others machines, the problem is still occurring. -----------------------------------------------------------------To a lot of people, the Sky is the limit.
