When I run this script:
code:

;
; For Test stuff, duh.
;

break on

?"Site : " + @site
?"UserName : " + @userid
?"WUserName : " + @Wuserid
?"Fullname : " + @Fullname
?"Comment : " + @Comment
?"LanRoot : " + @LanRoot
?"Machine Domain : " + @DOMAIN
?"Login Domain : " + @LDOMAIN
?"SID : " + @SID
$sid2name = SIDTONAME ("@SID")
?"sid2name : " + $sid2name



It spawns a new comman window and just dissappears. Umm what in the world would cause to open a new command window? It's like it is using "start" and then kix.

KIX32 test.kix is the syntax I used.

I added this to keep it on screen for a while at least:

code:

?"press any key to continue..."
GET$

Hi Jason,

I don't know. I just started a cmd prompt on Windows 2000 SP2 into a directory that is not on my path.

I have the KiXtart 2000 v4.00 Beta 2 in this directory.
I ran this code and it pops open a new DOS BOX and immediately goes away.

code:
"Hello"

I don't run the 2000 code daily, but I could swear that did not happen last week.

No answer yet, but I can confirm the same problem.

Actually it happens with any script...

So umm did this Beta 2 have some sort of time bomb in it? The scripts ran just fine last week.

There are 2 Beta (1, 2 and 2a) .EXE files. One called KiX32.exe and KiX32C.exe. The difference between them is that KiX32.exe is a consoleless version that only creates a console (DOS window) when there is screen output in the script.

The KiX32C.exe version works the same as KiX 3.6x in that it runs in the current console. This means that if you run KIX32 just like you always have, and the new Beta .EXE is in you path before the old .EXE, then your scripts will behave differently - you will get the "flashing console" effect.

The first thing I do when I get the next Beta is to rename the exes the other way around, ie KiX32C.exe is the consoleless version and KiX32.exe is the old fashioned version using the current console. I belive the live version of KiX2k will be like this also.
