Line-1 Error-unknown function name

[willy741]

Hi Guys

I am new to this so please bear with me. I created a simple RunAs script to get a program to run as non admin user. I get the following error when running the script as a regular user. Line-1 Error-unknown function name. I posted the script below.

#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****

#AutoIt3Wrapper_outfile=E-Editor.exe

#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****

; This example will rerun itself with admin rights on using a local account

; Note on Vista this may not work as even though the user is admin it may

; not be elevated even after the RunAs call. In that case use #RequireAdmin

; at the top of the script.

; Are we already admin?

If Not IsAdmin() Then

RunAsSet('Admin','xxxxxxxxxxx')

RunWait('C:\Program Files\E-Editor\E-Editor.exe')

Exit

EndIf

;MsgBox(0, 'Message', 'Now running with admin rights.')

Thanks in Advance

Bill

I don't get an error running it. Do you have the latest autoit installed? Have you run it in scite and just normally.

If the error is line 1. Why don't you delete it. It is just a #region

picea892,

The error is 'Line-1' which is what happens when an error occurs in a compiled exe. This is because the line numbering is lost in the compliation process - you need to run within SciTE to get the full error location including line number.

Edit:

willy741,

RunAsSet is now a deprecated function (16th May, 2008 - v3.2.12.0) - what version of Autoit are you running?

When I check it in ScITE i do not get any errors. I compiled the script. I placed it on a desktop and get the line 1 error

I updated Autoit to 3.3. When I check it I get a error at the end of the path.

('C:\Program Files\EEditor\EEditor.exe')

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

Local $sUserName = "Admin"

Local $sPassword = "xxxxxxxxxx"

; Run a command prompt as the other user.

Local $pid = RunAsWait('C:\Program Files\EEditor\EEditor.exe')

; Wait for the process to close.

ProcessWaitClose($pid)

What am I doing wrong?

It does show you also what is wrong:

ERROR: RunAsWait() [built-in] called with wrong number of args.

Local $pid = RunAsWait('C:\Program Files\EEditor\EEditor.exe')

Check the helpfile for the proper syntax.
