RME 3.3 Automated Action

[k-kriegel]

Problem Description: I have a d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs that runs just fine from my win2000 dosbox command line.

in the RME automated action I have tried -

d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs

sh d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs

sh cscript d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs

c:\winnt\system32\cscript d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs

sh c:\winnt\system32\cscript d:\scripts\trapalert.vbs

I recieve this error in the sysloganalyser.log

trapalert.vbs -> Are you trying to run a Visual Basic Script for this?. Make sure that you're following the docs for the correct syntax and usage.

Hi,

I have had basically the same experience. I think the java stuff has problems with calls to the OS when run on Windows. In my case, a simple bat was not run if it included a redirection of STDOUT ("> output.log ").

Hi,

I think I got a step ahead, but still without resolving the problem. Syslog Analyzer seems to be unable to run vbs or jscripts directly. One has to explicitly call the Windows Scripting host wscript.exe

But all I achieved that way is that there are no error messages in the Sysloganalyser.log any more. But the script isn't executed either.

Cheers
