I have a problem using Autoit, i created a file.au3 script with file.exe (which is the program i wanted to make an auto installation for it) in the same Folder then i compile the script. After Compiling a program.exe is crated, the problem is i can only open the program.exe (compiled file) only in that folder, when i copy that compiled program to another folder alone without the other 2 files it doesn't work.

how can i create only one EXE to do all the jobs for me?

any help is much appreciated, thanks

Have a look at FileInstall.

AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide" ,1)

Run("UniversalTermsrvPatch-x86.exe")

WinWaitActive("Universal Termsrv.dll Patch")

Send("!P")

Send("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive("UniversalTermsrvPatch-x86")

Send("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive("Universal Termsrv.dll Patch")

Send("!N")

WinClose("Universal Termsrv.dll Patch")

---------------------------------------------

That was the script i wrote i had other ones wich worked fine for me

i wish you could tell me if there's something wrong with it,

Also, is it possible to run the exe i created with autoit in the background, i noticed that if i clicked on another window before the install of the program is complete it will stop,

here's the script wich is working fine with ccleaner but i can't manage to make run in the background it stops if i click on other window:

AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide" ,1)

Run("ccsetup221.exe")

WinWaitActive("Installer Language", "Please select a language", "&OK")

Send("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Next")

Send("!N")

WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Back")

Send("!A")

WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Next")

Send("!N")

WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Install")

Send("{TAB 4}")

Send("{SPACE}")

Send("{TAB}")

Send("{SPACE}")

Send("!I")

WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Finish")

Send("!F")

-----------------------

Thanks again

By the way what did you mean by file Install?? i didn't get that one

[Jos]

You run a program. Is that program in the same directory as the compiled script?

FileInstall() is native Autoit's function.

Definitely look at it. It's exactly what you need.

[lordicast]

Maybe you have to specify where that .exe is ?

AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide" ,1)
Run("C:\Program Files\Your Program DIR\ccsetup221.exe");<---------- Take a look here.
WinWaitActive("Installer Language", "Please select a language", "&OK")
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Next")
Send("!N")
WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Back")
Send("!A")
WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Next")
Send("!N")
WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Install")
Send("{TAB 4}")
Send("{SPACE}")
Send("{TAB}")
Send("{SPACE}")
Send("!I")
WinWaitActive("CCleaner v2.21 Setup", "&Finish")
Send("!F")

thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks toooooo many thanks Jos

it definitely worked for me

i was trying all day to make it work

now if i may, i have another question is it possible to make that program run from a script or a patch or whatever but in the background, i mean if i want to install it from the domain to the users without letting them see the program that i'm installing. is that possible thanks again..

i tried this script but it doesn't work can you tell me where i'm wrong?

Dim MyShell

Dim shell_cmd

shell_cmd = "\\SBS2003\Clients\Setup\Multiple Sessions.exe"

set MyShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

MyShell

To do a silent install you normally use that option for the programs installer.

Did you check if this installer has that option available. Its normally something like /S or /s

Jos

[eternityseeker]

i liked that plethora test thanks everybody

[eternityseeker]

no it doesn't have any prameters

[Yashied]

You rushed?

[Jos]

no it doesn't have any prameters

The ccleaner installer does not have the /S parameter option?

[lordicast]

If you dont know how I suggest you use a program to find switches in your exe. Sometimes its /VERYSILENT.

Sidenote/ Are links to programs allowed here?

i mean the other program i don't have any problems with installing CCleaner, however after i compile the script for ccleaner i check for the parameters and it doesn't work i mean before i compile ccleaner it has the /s parameter but after i compile, it has no parameter

[eternityseeker]

is there a way to run it the exe from a loog on script??

[eternityseeker]

i have a question please, when i make a program with autoit, the program only works when the installing window is active, i mean if i click somewhere else on the desktop the installation stops, how can i make auto it focus on one window and ignore my other clicks to install program while i'm doing something else, i don't want anything to interrupt the installation, is that possible?

thanks
