Cant seem to get the

Code:

;Declared Variables
$RTRNSOPHOS3 = EXIST ("%ProgramFiles%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\SavService.exe")
$RTRNSOPHOS4 = EXIST ("%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\SavService.exe")

$RTRNSOPHOS3PATH = "%ProgramFiles%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\"
$RTRNSOPHOS4PATH = "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\"

;************************************************************
;** Check OS version for Token File Placement Then Create  **

;Check Which OS Version is Installed
$Handle = FreeFileHandle()
IF $Handle > 0
  If $RTRNSOPHOS3 = 1
    IF Open($Handle, $RTRNSOPHOS3PATH + "Alto-INS-Track.txt", 5) = 0 
       ;at (14,5) "RTRNSOPHOS3 $RTRNSOPHOS3PATH + "Alto-INS-Track.txt""

My guess is that the line $RTRNSOPHOS4PATH = "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\" is not populating correctly. Have you tried placing some ? lines to verify your info is getting passed along correctly? For example... Code: ;Declared Variables $RTRNSOPHOS3 = EXIST ("%ProgramFiles%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\SavService.exe") $RTRNSOPHOS4 = EXIST ("%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\SavService.exe") ? "RTRNSOPHOS3: "+$RTRNSOPHOS3 ? "RTRNSOPHOS4: "+$RTRNSOPHOS4 $RTRNSOPHOS3PATH = "%ProgramFiles%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\" $RTRNSOPHOS4PATH = "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\" ? "RTRNSOPHOS3PATH: "+$RTRNSOPHOS3PATH ? "RTRNSOPHOS4PATH: "+$RTRNSOPHOS4PATH

A simpler way of coding would be something like (untested) Code: if exist(programfilesx86()+"\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\") ;do stuff endif function programfilesx86() $programfilesx86=iif(@onwow64,"%programfiles(x86)%","%programfiles%") endfunction

It works fine on most Win 7 32 bit Versions Also as I was debugging the Paths (Yes they are populating correctly, I have used the ? and the AT commeand extensively in the Script.) I noticed if I create a Folder C:\Temp lets say I can open the file in and write to that. The problem is that for Sophos AV install it would be better if I could create the file in the product home Folder. I will try the suggestions Please note I am executing these scripts with the Runnas.exe program as the Domain\Administrator So I can't figure out why permissions would be a problem UAC maybe Thanks again

cmptrguy1 cmptrguy1 Just in Town Registered: 2011-03-11 Posts: 4 Loc: Alabama	Also I have noticed as a standard user it appears they do not have access to create a file under either Progam File Folder I am checking to see what kind of access the Domain\Admin USer has on the Box.

Try running the script while logged in as a domain admin. If it works there, you will know the logic is OK and need to focus on access. 3. If the Domain Admin account fails, use the local admin account. Domain Admins have just slightly less access than "the local administrator" on Windows 7. 4. Trying to elevate access during login is tricky, and usually frowned upon by security organizations. There is an example in the script vault for triggering processes that you can get some specific ideas from. What we do is have the user determine if an admin task is needed. Users generally can read anything. If something is missing or a lower version, a file can be written to a central server which identifies the client and the task. The server can push an install script to the client, create a scheduled task with specific local or domain credentials, and then immediately trigger the task. In most csaes, we can trigger admin-processed installs on client workstations within 15 seconds of a user logging in. No user or task rights elevation required and no issue with UAC. There is an entire library of task scheduling udfs (tcLib) on our web site that can implement the remote task define & trigger process. We've deployed this at several client sites, from a few dozen users to sites with thousands of users. Glenn _________________________ Actually I am a Rocket Scientist! $\:D$
