houghl Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Hi there im having trouble with the adlibenable function. I have read other posts whch i thought would help but still not working. I must be missing something here but here goes, you help would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to install some software and during the install process a window appears asking whether i want to keep or overwrite files because they exist. I thought the script below would do this but no such luck i have included a win spy screen aswell. I want the check to run during the whole script to pick these errors up AdlibEnable("conflict", 1000) Func conflict() If WinActive("Version Conflict") Then Send("{ENTER}") EndIf EndFunc Run("setup.exe") WinWaitActive("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup", "OK") Send("{ENTER}") Press CTRL-ALT-F to pause the display. >>>>>>>>>>>> Window Details <<<<<<<<<<<<< Title: Version Conflict Class: ThunderRT6Form Size: X: 465 Y: 366 W: 350 H: 291 >>>>>>>>>>> Mouse Details <<<<<<<<<<< Screen: X: 5 Y: 562 Cursor ID: 2 >>>>>>>>>>> Pixel Color Under Mouse <<<<<<<<<<< RGB: Hex: 0xBCBCBC Dec: 12369084 >>>>>>>>>>> Control Under Mouse <<<<<<<<<<< Size: Control ID: ClassNameNN: Text: >>>>>>>>>>> Status Bar Text <<<<<<<<<<< >>>>>>>>>>> Visible Window Text <<<<<<<<<<< No to &All &No &Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSlug Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 (edited) How exactly does the script fail? Does the Conflict window popup and the script get stuck at that point?1) You might want to use WinExists instead of WinActive in your func.2) The following might help you debug. Check that the window title does not contain an extra space at the end, and make sure Adlib enable is being called every second:Func conflict() Local $title = WinGetTitle('');title of active window Tooltip(">>" & $title & "<< " & @SEC, 0, 0) If WinActive("Version Conflict") Then Send("{ENTER}") EndIf EndFunc3) Your script might be finishing right away....Does the conflict window appear BEFORE or AFTER the "Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup" window appears. If answer is AFTER, then your script is probably ending too soon.You might need to add WinWaitClose("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup") OR you might want to get rid of AdlibEnable, and just call WinExists a few times at the start of the script.....Edit: Added comments about WinWaitClose Edited March 24, 2005 by CyberSlug Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!

houghl Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 Thanks for your reply CyberSlug much appreciated After reading your reply i used your bit of code for the debuging of my function this worked a treat, and as you also suggested my script was simple ending before the conflict windows appeared. I am now using the winwaitactive as you can see alot more often to control the script properley instead of just sending enters when i think they are needed. My script (sorry our script) now looks like this. AdlibEnable("conflict") Func conflict() If WinActive("Version Conflict") Then Send("{ENTER}") EndIf EndFunc Run("setup.exe") WinWaitActive("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup", "OK") Send("{ENTER}") WinWaitActive("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup", "Directory:") Send("{ENTER}") WinWaitActive("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer - Choose Program Group") Send("{ENTER}") WinWaitActive("Neoteric AutoCard Viewer Setup", "completed successfully") Send("{ENTER}") This now works like a charm. thankyou once again for your help you guided me down the right path cheers. PS how do you do the bit where your post has the code in a window rather than just as message text? As im hoping to use this wonderful tool alot more and would make my posts easier to read.

CyberSlug Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 [ code ] stuff goes here [ /code ]Be sure to remove the spaces around the brackets.You should also see buttons near the top of the window when you create a new post...The buttons look like: B I U FONT SIZE COLORhtp:// IMG @ QUOTE CODE Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!

houghl Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 While you seem to be my online support specialist CyberSlug ive got another question for you not strictly related to adlib but a continuation of my script. My script now functions if i run it on my PC i now need to roll this out to a number of machines (140) i normally use beyondexec which is a neat tool (http://www.beyondlogic.org) to issue commands to be run at remote machines but for some reason it wont run the au3 files. From your experience are there better ways of doing this. I could get the users to click on a shortcut but would prefer it to do this automaticaly. And i know ive said it allready but thanks for your replies PS Heres my bit of code hopefully in a pretty window....lol @echo off REM Script to send the autocard viewer to desktops (LPH, 24/05/2004) :loop dir d:\3gpatch\sendautocard /b>%temp%\sendautocard.txt FOR /F "TOKENS=1,*" %%k IN (%temp%\sendautocard.txt) DO ( echo About to send Autocard to %%k. if not exist "\\%%k\C$\VISION\bin\vision.exe" ( echo %%k is inaccessable or no VISION installed. cls ) ELSE ( copy d:\3gpatch\autoview.reg \\%%k\C$ beyondexec \\%%k REGEDIT /S c:\autoview.reg del \\%%k\C$\autoview.reg /q beyondexec \\%%k -c d:\3gpatch\autocard\autoit-v3-setup.exe autoit-v3-setup.exe /S copy d:\3gpatch\autocard\autocard.au3 \\%%k\C$ beyondexec \\%%k autocard.au3 del \\%%k\c$\autocard.au3 /q now %%k has autocard installed>>sendautocard.log del d:\3gpatch\sendautocard\%%k cls ) ) goto loop and the result is as follows BeyondExec V2.05 - Spawn Remote Processes on Windows NT/2000/XP WorkStations.

PS I know its nothing to do with my au3 script because i tried running the msgbox.au3 example and it fails too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSlug Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Are you trying to run the .au3 script file? I doubt that will work. Compile the script into an Executable.... Right click the AU3 and see if "Compile Script" is an option.... or look for Aut2Exe in "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\" or in the Start Menu.....
