I have line in my login script (batch file) that says

:^ UPDATE WHICH RUNS ONE TIME
cscript.exe "%SystemDrive%\cabs\login\scripts\Update.vbs" //nologo /b

It doesn't run. The script actually exists on a network location and does not exit in the c:\cabs\login folder and it is a onetime run. Can anyone help?

thanks,

Janet

Welcome to VBScript Jane stClaire,

I presume you are 'shelling' out of your batch file?

eg: shell cscript <scriptname> /<switches>

Thank you for helping. It still doesn't work even when running from the location where the vb script exists.

Works when I just run it outside of the login script.

Can we see the snippet of your batch file. I would say that is where the problem is

Not sure how much you wanted. All the rest works great.

Probably just my paranoia, but

cscript.exe "w:\setup\Update.wsf" //nologo /b

These are generic utility functions which should be made available
to all VBScripts by calling through a .wsf file. I have tried just calling the update.vbs and it doesn't work.

To eliminate the possibility that your batch script isn't allowed/able to call cscript.exe: Is the "Amyuni" stuff working?

Could you replace Update.vbs with a simple test script that just indicates (msgbox, logfile) that it is called?

Hi Jane,

It is like I thought. You need to "SHELL" cscript.exe

The SHELL command
SHELL=%systemroot%\cscript.exe "w:\setup\Update.wsf" //nologo /b
