Status: offline 		homedir = to absolate home dir pulled from Active Directory (from previous step)
const PROGRAMFILES = "\Program Files"


Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(homedir)

If Not objFSO.FolderExists(objFolder & PROGRAMFILES ) Then
objFolder.SubFolders.Add("programfiles")
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
   objStream.WriteLine "Cannot create programfiles directory: " & Err.Number
   WScript.Quit Err.Number
End If
End If


On my development enviroment this works fine. In my production environment, it returns Err.Number = 424, each and everytime. 
There is a chance that my permissions may not be the same in "prod" as they are in "dev" but I am able to other, similar, actions in prod via a different script.

I guess I am asking if anyone sees something wrong with my script?
Is there anyway a permissions problem can cause an 424 error?


Thanks,

Higgledy

The above line does not initalize the filesystem object.
Add this above that
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

I ran your script with the var homedir being "F:\" and it worked....

I think you better do a check on the output from AD rather then looking at the script, b/c that seems to be working...

Good luck...

PS. If you need help with your AD output, please post your full script/side scripts that contribute to this output

Status: offline 		I agree with Snipah
I ran the following and it worked

homedir = "d:"
const PROGRAMFILES = "\Program Files"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(homedir)

If Not objFSO.FolderExists(objFolder & PROGRAMFILES ) Then
objFolder.SubFolders.Add("programfiles")
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
  objStream.WriteLine "Cannot create programfiles directory: " & Err.Number
  WScript.Quit Err.Number
End If
End If

Status: offline 		Snipah, I checked the out from AD it is perfect. In fact, I logged the value, then cut and pasted it into exploer and it resolved to the user's home directory as it should.

I am still stuck on this being a permissions problem, but why is the Err.Number returned a "424" and not a permissions error code?
