Run Command Line in Task Sequence as current user

Hi guys,
So i have package that is running fine by itself as administrator. It creates folder in %USERPROFILE% if it doesn't exist. However when i put the package in task sequence it doesn't run properly since the TS is executed as System account.
Can you advise how i can run the package as the current logged on user with elevated rights in Task Sequence :)

Well when i run package as standalone with %userprofile% variable in the command it runs as the current user. If i use it in task sequence i get the system profile instead. So instead of task sequence i am using one package with multiple programs to run
one after the other.
Does this make more sence?

Using computer variables in task sequence "Run Command Line"

I am attempting to deploy VMs through VMware's vRealize Automation tool using CM. The process creates a CM computer object then creates a direct rule on a CM collection for the new computer object. During the creation of the computer object vRA creates computer
variables provided by me on the computer object. I see the computer object built and i see the custom variables on the computer object:
Name Value
dns1 10.10.10.10
dns2 10.10.10.11
gateway 10.10.10.1
ipAddress 10.10.10.2
netMask 255.255.255.0
In the task sequence the last step is to "Run Command Line":
cmd /c netsh int ip set address name="Ethernet0" static %ipAddress% %netMask% %gateway% & cmd /c netsh int ip set dns name="Ethernet0" static %dns1% & cmd /c netsh int ip set dns name="Ethernet0" static %dns2% index=2
When the TS gets to that step it doesn't substitute the variables in the command with the computer variables listed above. Looking at the smsts logs after the deployment is complete I see lines stating:
Set Command Line:...
Start executing command line:...
Executing command line:...
ProgramName = ...
All of those lines show the command exactly as it is above with the %variables% intact.
The command immediately fails with the error:
Invalid address parameter (%ipAddress%). It should be a valid IPv4 address.
Does anyone have a suggestion on why the TS isn't using the variables? I found this article https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693541.aspx but its for 2007 not 2012. I wasn't able to find something comparable for 2012.

I don't know why anyone here thinks you *need* sccm osd to achieve fully automated customizations.
Customer selects base image (2008 r2 core, 2008r2 gui, 2012 r2 core, 2012 r2 gui), which should be thin and with zero customizations anyway,
vaai accelerated clone creates vm,
ip addr/gateway/dns config is injected with powercli,
customers config management engine agent of choice is installed via powercli script injection/execution (we have puppet users, ConfigMgr users, saltstack users, IEM users, Cheff users),
the clone completes in ~2 minutes and a VM is presented to the customer in less than 5 minutes
Deploying windows VMs via SCCM OSD is not only slow, but requires dev work on the customer side to get things rolling which wastes everyone's cycles including your own

Getting Access is Denied when Running Script in OSD Task Sequence

I am attempting put in a script that will move the computer account to the proper OU in AD. I have the script but when it launches inside of the TS I get "CScript Error: Loading script "C:\_SMSTaskSequence\WDPackage\Scripts\MoveOU.vbs" failed
(Access is denied. )."
I am using the Run Command Line, and using the "Run this step as the following account" I have verified that the account has access to do what I need it to do in AD. I have attached the logs as well.

"You can't fix stupid!"

I'm having the exact same issue. I'm using AutoIT for my script to move the computer account. I've tried using ADO, LDAP, and LDAP/ADSystemInfo object. They all fail with access denied. In fact the ADO version of my script fails just
trying to create the "ADODB.Connection" object which I know for a fact doesn't require elevation or administrator access. However, all three versions of the script work correctly when run manually outside the TS. They also work correctly on XP
machines during OSD. Only when deploying a Win7 machine do they fail during the TS. I've tried adding the runas user to the local administrators group beforehand but no dice. Did you have to restart the computer after doing the net localgroup
change? There has to be some other security config in Win7 that is set somewhere doing this. I just can't figure out what. I've even started looking at DCOM/COM permissions to see if something isn't right there.
I don't see why but maybe the script needs to be run locally? Any other ideas?

TS-Run Command Line-run as different user

HI
I needed to deploy one program which do not like SYSTEM account (do not installs). So I created TaskSequence with
Run Command line and specified domain user which will be running this command.
Is my domain users password safe or it will be provided in clear text in my network? Because this user must be Admin on local computer.

Just to reinforce, the tasks use standard, core Windows APIs to impersonate the account and execute the command -- these APIs never send anything in clear text and if they did, then Windows has much bigger issues. It would actually take
a huge amount of effort to not securely perform this operation.

BO Edge 4.0 Installer stuck on "Run command-line executable"

Hi,
Our BO Edge BI Server 4.0 Installer on Windows Server 2008R2 is stuck on one of the last steps; "Run command-line executable".
Before is was stuck on "WaitForCMSForTheFirstTime". We upped the RAM to 16GB and then the installer went past this, but after a full reset of the server and trying again it is now stuck a few steps later on "Run command-line executable". This is very frustrating, especially since there is no error message at all, no install log and the installer is just stuck indefinitely and we had to cancel it.
At that point the Central Configuration Manager shows this:
Apache Tomcat - Running
BW Publisher Service - Stopped
SAP BO Mobile Authentication Server - Stopped
SAP BO Mobile Processing Server - Stopped
Server Intelligence Agent - Running
We can't deinstall from Windows to start over at this point because the installer says an install is in progress.
What is going on?
Help urgently needed and appreciated

Hello,
Yes, certain stages run for a long duration. "Run command-line executbale" runs for atleast 45 mins. It's normal.
My suggestion would be to leave it for 45 mins-90 mins.
Now that you have interrupted your installtion, try uninstalling it through the control panel.
In case you can't see the software there, then you have to edit registry entries, which is very tiresome.
Regards,
Sonia

I can't find a class to run command line stuff...

Does J2SE have the capability to run command line files/executable files? I need to run some things from command line on my local machine. This ap will be swing based. Thanks for any insight.

that is what I need. I did not think to look there. Thanks so much.

Maximum allowed run time for a task sequence

I found if i left the maximum allowed run time for a task sequence with a defualt value of "0" in configuration manager 2012 r2 cu2,the required task sequence would never run without a maintenance window larger than
12H.
At client side,the servicewindowmanager.log always said this required task sequence had a maximum runtime of 43200 seconds(12h).
servicewindowmanager.log:
OnIsServiceWindowAvailable called with: Runtime:43200, Type:5
Program cannot Run! Setting *canProgramRun to FALSE
There does not exist a Service Window of this Type, for this duration. The Program will not run.
If i set maximum allowed run time to 120 minutes,task sequence would run under a 3h mainenance window.
So if you leave the maximum allowed run time for a task sequence with a value of "0" then client agent will evaluate it as 43200(12h) for a required deployment,is it true? have i missed something?

Hi,
That is correct it will default to the same value as a program with a "Unknown" maximum runtime value, Unknown is also evaluated to 0 = 12h so that is correct behaviour.

Jörgen

SSIS - How to run command line to copy files with User Variables within a Execute Process Task

Hello,
I'm am having syntax issues within the Arguments when trying to copy a file with cmd.exe using User Variables.
It works when I hard code the arguments : /c copy /b "\\folder1\file.txt" "\\folder2\file.txt"
However, it's failing when I try using User Variables to replace the directory and file.
User::FILES = \\folder1\file.txt
User::FILE_NAME = file.txt
"/c copy /b + @[User::FILES] + \" \\\\folder2\\" + @[User::FILE_NAME]"
Does anybody know what's wrong with my syntax?
Thanks!

Hi SSISBeginner,
Assuming the source file is "C:\Temp\Source\file.txt", the destination folder is "C:\Temp\Destination", the expression of FILES variable is "C:\Temp\Source\file.txt", and the expression of FILE_NAME variable is file.txt. Then, we can use the following
expression for the Argument property of the Execute Process Task:
"/C COPY /B " + @[User::FILES] + " C:\\Temp\\Destination\\" + @[User::FILE_NAME]
Note: Pay attention to the spaces in the double quotes in the expression.

USMT Capture Doesn't Run on "Required" OSD Task Sequences?

Hello,
I have a strange issue with USMT and my OSD Task Sequence. I'm upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7 Enterprise via in-place upgrade with SCCM 2012 SP1 integrated with MDT. My TS runs 100% perfectly if I deploy the TS to my collection, make it "Available,"
and run it from the Software Center. All configured profiles get copied and restored using hardlinks as expected.
When I create a "Required" deployment, however, and let it run on it's own, the USMT never runs and I lose all profile information as a result of the drive format. The rest of the TS runs as expected, but as I said, the USMT (scanstate.exe) won't
run. There are no discernible errors in the SMSTS.log file. I see where it processes my TS variable (OSDMigrateAdditionalCaptureOptions) and where it processes the "Capture User State" step, but scanstate.exe never kicks off or creates a log file.
Am I missing something here? Is this expected behavior? I can't find documentation on this, at least not yet. I have reproduced this exact behavior three times now, and I'm out of ideas.

Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. This can be done using "Available," but having to log in to each machine in order to kick-off the TS via Software Center seems inefficient.

My deployments have the same settings (except the ones that change when going from Available to Required, of course), so that doesn't appear to be the culprit. I re-examined my Capture User State step, and it looks fine, but I'll post my settings just in
case I'm missing something. I can't post the screen capture here for some reason, so below is an outline of my settings:
Package for User State Migration Tool: (My USMT package is listed here)
Capture all user profiles by using standard options is selected
Verbose Logging is OFF
Skip files using EFS is OFF
Copy by using file system access is selected
Continue if some files cannot be captured is ON
Capture locally by using links instead of by copying files is OFF
Capture off-line mode (Windows PE Only) is OFF
Capture by using VSS is not selected

How to run command line tool in my program???

Hi,all,I've got some tools that are usually,or take JDK for example,if we are not using an IDE,we need to open the command prompt,and then use the javac command to compile the source files and the "java "command to run the program,and both of them accept some command line params.The problem is that how could i integrate the tools in my own program,like JBuilder or some other IDE,you configure the params and compile and run in the IDE which don't need to open a command line prompt.Hope i have got my question clear:)
Best regards..

jesperdj ,thanks:)
actually,i am using eclipse to run my ant tasks programmatically,but I got trouble with the AntRunner class.it seems that i should config a proper classloader for it,but i just don't know how.please lend a hand:)thanks

GPUpdate /force in Task Sequence as current logged on user

Hi,
I am currently trying to "upgrade" around 800 installations of Microsoft Office Standard 2010 to Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus. To do this, I'll have to:
1: Install Office 2010 ProPlus
2: Uninstall Office 2010 Standard
3: Repair Office 2010 ProPlus
Due to these steps, I've decided to make a task sequence to do the magic.
So far, so good, the "upgrade" is installing, and the MAP toolkit reports are showing the correct results from my test lab.
During the repair of Office 2010 ProPlus, the Office applications cannot
run, so I've created a task to copy a custom group policy to %systemroot%\System32\GroupPolicy to deny the affected users to start the applications.
After applying the group policies, I manually run a gpupdate /force on my test computer. The applications are not starting. Also - so far so good.
Ok, so here is my challenge:
Since the Task Sequence is running in context of the SYSTEM account, the applied group policy will not refresh the GPO's of the current logged on user. Meaning; during the installation / repair of Office 2010, the user can open all the applications regardless
of the applied GPO's, and I'd very much like to avoid that. The TS will fail otherwise. Yes, I know I can perform a restart to apply the policies, but I'd like to avoid that as well.
Any idea how can I solve this?

I think you're making it very complex for yourself. I think that the PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit would be very benificial for a situation like this. For more information have a look here:

Using java to run command line as %username%

Hi all,
can any one help with this?
I'm trying to run a command line from a database as %username% in Windows. So far I have the following script, courtesy of Frank Naude to build a java class that is published within a plsql procedure. A command line can then be passed to it.

The trouble is although this script works great for commands that can be run is the 'background' as SYSTEM is I want to pass a command to actually open something e.g. notepad in the above example nothing seems to happen. As far as I can make out the command line is running but not as %username% so it's not running notepad.exe in the foreground.
I'm happy to clarify more if necessary.
Can anyone help with this?
Cheers

Bill,
Thank you for the quick answer. I believe you are right in your assumption.
I have been searching but found nothing so far.
I need to be able to run this line "wmic
Product where name='XXX XXX XXX' call uninstall"
in an elevated command prompt to uninstall the program.
I was looking for a VB script or PowerShell to execute it remotely on non domain roaming PCs.
Th3e command can be run remotely against stand-alone workstations but you must supply credentials. Post in the platform forum for you version of Windows for help in using the WMIC utility. WMIC /? will give you all of the command options fro
remote execution. UAC only affects local systems. You cannot use WMIC to remote back to the local system. WMIC does not allow impersonation to the local system.
Most installers will not automatically allow an unattended uninstall. If there is any dialog at all the uninstall will fail and can hang.
I recommend contacting the vendor of the application to get more information.
In all cases you cannot bypass UAC as Bill has noted. I am only noting that, sometimes, in a workgroup, you can use WMIC to remotely uninstall an application.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Jay,
Your question isn't very clear, hence Joerg's well meaning but irrelevant advise.
Do you mean:
I've written a simple program in java which echos
it's command-line arguments to back to the console.
Here's my code:
package forums;
public class ArgsEchoer
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (String arg : args) {
System.out.println(arg);
But can't figure out how to compile and run the program.
I'm using winblows shista, and it's cr@p.
Please help me, Thanks in advance.So... where are you at? Have you installed the JDK (java development kit)? Which version? Is your path set? Is your classpath set?

Hi,
You just post ur output file in some folder , lets say /usr/sap/sapout/test/.and the shell script in this path /usr/sap/bin/convert.sh.
Inside the File access parameters put target directory and filename scehme and for shell script give processing parameters as File construction mode , File type and OS Command and use a space after the shell script name and the %F.
And for input can use it directly.
Check out these links. First one will help you in acheiving want you want.
