VBScript in Task Sequence not working

Can someone let me know if I am doing this right or wrong?
I have a vbscript that I packaged up. No program attached to it, just the folder itself.
In the task sequence, I have a Run Command Line.
I point it to the package & disable 64-bit file system redirection
Command line: cscript outlook.vbs
Is this correct or am I doing this wrong?

check the SMSTS.log file on the client errors using the CMtrace log viewer.
Cheers

MDT Capture Task Sequence not working correctly

Hello All<o:p></o:p>
I need some help to tell me what I am doing wrong. I am using Hyper V and trying to capture a image of Windows 7 x64. From within the OS I run the
Litetouch.wsf from the deployment share. I get the normal MDT Wizard windows. I pick my capture task sequence and everything looks like it is running fine sys prep happens and I but back into windows PE I start to process the rules again and I am taken
back to the Select task sequence screen in WinPE. If I pick the capture task sequence again the deployment fails. <o:p></o:p>

(posting for anyone else that found this page, this was my fix)
I had the same problem as the initial poster apart from what I wanted to capture was a 'real' pc. The reason my 'capture' task sequence wasn't booting into WinPE from the local disk and continuing on with the capture was because the local disk was
being wiped when the boot wim - LiteTouchPE_x64.wim, was being run.
A few weeks prior to me wanting to capture a PC I'd been working out how to stop the occasional error when you boot a PC off the WDS server - “The Task Sequence Has Been Suspended”. I was particularly interested in stopping this error as I want to
remotely start a Win7 install on a PC, this error would stop the install happening but I wouldn't see this error and end up visiting the PC only to find the install hadn't really started. After googling around, I found a page that explains how to edit
the unattend.xml file in the boot image - LiteTouchPE_x64.wim, in the xml file to run the command wscript.exe X:\Deploy\Scripts\LTICleanup.wsf. Sounded good so I done what the page said (myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/cnackers/archive/2010/10/20/microsoft-deployment-toolkit-lite-touch-lti-the-task-sequence-has-been-suspended.aspx)
but it didn't stop the message appearing. In the end I fixed this problem by adding the line 'SkipWizard=YES' in my customsettings.ini file. I didn't remove the LTICleanup.wsf from unattend.xml, it didn't seem to do any harm, that was until I tried
to capture a PC.
When I ran though my 'sysprep and capture' task sequence, the PC would sysprep ok and then reboot, ready to capture it. Instead of the 'capturing a WIM file' sequence I was expecting to see, I, like the original posted got shown the list of available
task sequences window. If you try again to run the capture sequence, it will fail as this has to be started in a running Windows environment, not in WinPE. After several hours wondering what is going wrong, I dawned on me what was going wrong,
the LTICleanup.wsf was being run when the boot image was being run and wiping my disk, a disk that was ready to run an existing task sequence, the capture sequence, no wonder it was failing. Removing the LTICleanup.wsf command from within unattend.xml
or rebuilding the boot image (by running 'Update Deployment Share' within MDT 2010) fixed the problem, the capture now worked.
Hopefully this will help someone else like me who was wondering what was going wrong with a capture.

Format and Partition Task Sequence Not Working As Exprected When Using USB Media

Task looks like this.
Had been working on PXE based task sequence, but when I use USB media, it only makes a single partition that is around the size of the USB thumb drive.
How does this need to be changed so that it makes a C drive partition that is 80% of the total local disk space and a D drive that uses the remaining disk space when using USB boot media?

If you choose to create a "custom" partition configuration like the one above, then you are responsible for creating any extra required partitions like a BitLocker boot partition.
Additionally, if you are deploying on a uEFI machine, then you will also need to create the correct uEFI partitions.
Generally I discourage creating extra partitions.

Office 2013 C2R Update Scheduled Task does not work

Hi all.
I am having difficulty getting network deployed updates to work correctly. I installed and older version of Office 2013 with the ODT from a network share and set the update path. I then downloaded an update via ODT.
The issue is the scheduled task does not update office. If I trigger or manually run from a command prompt "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection modeargs reschedulemode tasktrigger
scheduledtask updateuitype background” from Task Scheduler nothing seems to happen. Monitoring Task Manager it looks like integratedoffice is called albeit very briefly.
But, if I run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection background” from a command prompt Office updates, but if I edit the Scheduled Task to above Office does not update if the
task is triggered.
As Office can update if the right command is given it would appear that my config.xml etc is correct. Any ideas on why the Scheduled Task does not work?
Cheers
Jakes

What permissions are set on the location of the updates ? C2R currently needs permissions granted for machine accounts as it runs under that context. This will change at some point that C2R gets updated.

Test sequences not working in standard prototype adaptor with Execute Steps in process

Test sequences not working in standard prototype adaptor with "Execute Steps in process" but the sequences works in "Execute steps in an External instance of CVI"(Debug mode). Pl help with solution
Apriciate your help
Regards,
Sharanu

Sharanu,
Thanks for contacting National Instruments. It would help us out a lot if you could specify exactly what is not working. Will the sequence just not run? Is it giving you an error message? Or what exactly does not work about it? The initial thing that I could think of that would make it not work in External Instance but not using the RunTime Engine is that you might be missing a support library when trying to run it in this configuration. If you click on the "Configure Auto-Loading of Support Libraries Needed for Linking .objs and .libs" button, you can make sure that all the support libraries you might be using are added in this list (you can add them using the "Add Other Libraries..." button). If this does not fix your problem, then let us know a litt
le more about what is going on and we can help you from there. Thanks.

Running Function Module in Background with Update Task is not working

Hello Friends,
I have a "Z" Report Program where I am running this Report in Background using JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE. I am calling this in BADI.
In this Report I am calling another Function Module PRICES_POST which is a standard Function Module and in this FM there is another FM 'CKML_UPDATE_MATERIAL_PRICE IN UPDATE TASK'. Now when I am running the BADI these values are not being updated.
Friends I would like to know whether can we run Function Modules which are included with UPDATE TASK as Background Job program?
Kindly help me in providing your valuable suggestions in proceeding further.
Thanks and Regards
Pradeep Goli

Usually the sequence of CALLs in your report should look like
CALL FUNCTION 'CM_F_INITIALIZE'
    EXPORTING
      msg_on_screen = c_x.
CALL FUNCTION 'CKMS_BUFFER_REFRESH_COMPLETE'.
CALL FUNCTION 'PRICES_CHANGE'
    EXPORTING
      actual_bdatj = f_matpr-pp-bdatj
      actual_poper = f_matpr-pp-poper
      bukrs        = p_bukrs
      budat        = p_date
      xblnr        = p_xblnr
    TABLES
      t_matpr      = t_matpr.
READ TABLE t_matpr WITH KEY pp-xerror = ' '
                            TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE i046(ckprch).
ELSE.
    CALL FUNCTION 'PRICES_POST'
      EXPORTING
        i_bktxt    = p_bktxt
        bukrs      = p_bukrs
        lis_update = 'X'
      TABLES
        t_matpr    = t_matpr.
ENDIF.
COMMIT WORK.
If you forget the COMMIT-WORK each and every FM called in UPDATE TASK will not be triggered.

MDT 2012 - Task Sequence Not Completing

I'm a complete novice with MDT 2012, but I have had pretty good luck getting a deployment for Server 2008 R2.
I have a reference system, and I do a very vanilla sysprep and capture using the template task sequence with no changes.
My deployment has a few app installs and other configuration items, but nothing too exotic.
My problem is this: during deployment, after applying the system from WinPE, I perform the final reboot. At this point, the expected action is for an autologon to take place, and for the local Administrator account to run c:\Litetouch.vbs, which does some final
cleanup and a few tasks that require the target system to be running.
This isn't happening on my system. And a look at the registry shows that the autologon stuff has not been set up, so it won't ever happen. It's not a matter of having an incorrect account, or a count of 0, none of the autologon registry keys are even present.
In trying to solve this (I believe it worked when I first started!) I've stripped down my deployment to a pair of task sequences that have no customization
at all in either the capture or the deployment task sequences, and still no luck. So I believe that something has changed in my reference system - but I unfortunately can't roll back.
What is driving me a little nuts is that I can't tell when that autologon information is supposed to be inserted in the registry. There is code in Litetouch.wsf that appears to do it, in function PopulateAutoAdminLogon, but I can't come up with a scenario in
which this function gets called. I am guessing that perhaps sysprep does it when creating the WIM, but I can't seem to find good information on that.
I've done a lot of searching on this, and unfortunately the answer space is cluttered with people who have a similar sounding but completely different problem - they want their deployed system to do an autologon, and after deployment their system comes up with
the logon screen instead of doing what they want. I've seen a few people post similar problems to mine, but nobody has received an answer. This one is pretty close, it suggest I might have a group policy item that disables the local admin account, but I don't
think it hits the mark for me.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/mdt/thread/e625aa88-2415-4a2a-9e79-ac6b37119c27
So in a nutshell: when deploying a system using MDT 2012, at what point do the autologon items from unattend.xml stuffed into the registry for use after state restore/reboot in the task sequence? And what can go wrong with that?
- Mark

Same here, can't find any solution though. Did you ever work it out?

Ctrl Alt Del and Task manager not working

Hi, Ive been having a problem getting task manager to run at all. On a fresh reboot, if I use the ctrl alt del function the according screen will come up like normal, and I will click on task manager. It bring me back to my desktop and nothing pops up.
Its not running in my task bar or anything. Then if I try to use the ctrl alt del function again, nothing happens. Ive tried running task manager straight from the start menu, but then I get an error saying that the version of that file is not compatible with
the version of windows I am running, which is 64 bit W7. It just started happening on my system a few days ago and I have changed nothing the past few days. I have tried to do a system restore, but to my idiocy, I did not know I needed to manually create restore
points. So I can only restore to yesterday which would fix nothing. I have run antivirus and anti spyware programs and they have shown no problems and my hard drive only has a 1% disk fragmentation. Is there a way to uninstall and re download a 64 bit compatible
version of the windows 7 task manager? Or is there a separate reason why it is not working? Thankyou

Also try it By Registry Editor :
Start --> Run --> regedit --> ok
Then
Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Key: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Name: DisableTaskMgr
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0=Disablethis key, that is Don't Disable, Enable TaskManager
Regards,
MCP | MCTS | MCITP
The first fix did not work, I tried doing the second one but there is no system folder in
Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
The only one its showing is an explorer folder.

Applications Installed through task sequence not showing up in Software Center

In the task sequence we use for our OSD Windows 7 machine build, we have Custom-Install Application steps which install a number of of our Applications. Each of these Applications has the "Allow this application to be installed from the Install
Application task sequence action without being deployed" checkbox checked. All of the Applications have the following properties set:
Installation behavior: Install for system
Logon requirement: Whether or not a user is logged in
Installation program visibility: Hidden
When a machine is built using this task sequence, all of the Applications install successfully - they show up in Control Panel\Programs and Features, and they run correctly. However, none of them show up in the Software Center. I'm not seeing anything in
any of the logs that indicates a problem, and the Software Center remains empty even after running all the client evaluation cycle actions
Interestingly, if I add a couple of the newly build machines to a collection, then target deployments for the already installed Applications to that collection, after running the Machine Policy Retrieval and Evaluation Cycle the Applications immediately
show up in Software Center as installed.
Does anyone know if Applications installed through a task sequence do not show up in the Software Center by default, or could you give me some troubleshooting tips if this is not normal?
Thanks for any suggestions!
SCCM 2012 SP1, Single site, W7 clients

Why you deploy applications through task sequences? Task sequences are built and meant to be used with OSD, not application deployment.
To my knowledge, if you have application install step in a task sequence and you deploy that task sequence to a collection of machines, the software center on those machines only sees the task sequence itself, not the applications inside the task sequence.
If you want your applications to be shown in the software center, change the method of deploying stuff and deploy applications as they're are meant to.

Hi Apoorva!
What do you mean with "Access Sequence"?
In CRM 7.0 EHP1 there is a generic framework-feature available which allows the defininition of the tab-order.

Validation sequencing not working

hi
I have found that my item level validations on a page are not working as I expected. I validate a field (P74_change_id) to 'must be numeric', then I have another validation with a much higher sequence number that checks whether the value already exists in the database, but this is causing an error if the value if not numeric. The following text is taken from my debug mode, what surprises me is the second line that clearly states the first 'not numeric' validation is functioning correctly and returning a fail, but it still carries on with the other validations.
0.28: ...Item is numeric validation: P74_CHANGE_ID
*0.28: ...Validation did NOT pass*
0.28: ...Item Not Null or zero Validation: P74_CHANGE_ID
0.28: ...Item Not Null Validation: P74_RAISED_DATE
0.29: ...Item is date validation: P74_RAISED_DATE
*0.29: ...Validation did NOT pass*
0.29: ...Item Not Null Validation: P74_APPROVED
0.29: ...Item Not Null Validation: P74_TYPE
0.29: ...Item is date validation: P74_APPROVED_DATE
0.30: ...Exists Validation: type="NOT_EXISTS" select * from budget_ct_header where (change_ID = :P74_change_Id) and (change_ID_rev = :P74_change_id_rev) and (project = :P74_project) and (type = :P74_TYPE)
0.30: Show ERROR page...
I get a 'ORA-01722: invalid number' and 'Error ERR-1006 Error in validation routine' referring to 'Exists Validation: type="NOT_EXISTS" select * from' etc the on the page below the debug.
Any ideas/thoughts??
Thanks
-Marc

Marc
Apex will check all validations before the error page - hence the 'X errors have occured' message. This is a good thing, there's nothing worse for a user to get an error, fix it, re-submit the page only to get another error etc etc.
Looks like you need to check you NOT EXISTS validation so make all the other validation conditional never and then get that one working.
I think the problem is probably with one of the bind variable predicates where you reference the page items. Have you tried wrapping them in TO_NUMBER() where appropriate?
By the way you don't need brackets round your predicates in the WHERE clause of your not exists query.
Let me know if you need further help.
Cheers
Ben
Sorry forgot to mention that your ORA error seems to relate to your NOT EXISTS query - not your IS NUMERIC validations

Export Task Audit Not Working

Hello,
We are on HFM 11.1.2.1.103 and I am getting an error message when trying to export a users activity from the "Task Audit" menu. When I click on export a new tab comes up with the URL http://server:port/hfm/Administration/TaskAuditExport.asp and then I get an error message:
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the
system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more
about this error.
And when I click on "here" it takes me to this URL Running Classic ASP Applications on IIS 7 and IIS 8 : The Official Microsoft IIS Site
Any thoughts on how I resolve this would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Jason

SDM,
Thank you for the response. This is helpful and I was able to extrac the data, but this utility doesn't give you the ability to focus on one users' activity as you can from the web. Why is it not recommended to use the web and is there a way to get that working properly?
The reason the utility is not working for my purpose is I want to view a few users' activities over the last year and when I run the utility it gives me everyone and extracts the data across numerous files, which is not particularly easy to work with.
Thanks.

Browse sequence not working in IE 10 - works in Chrome and Firefox

Hi all:
I am using RH10 and generating webhelp. I have applied the recent fixes for webhelp.
The browse sequence does not work when the webhelp is displayed with IE 10. It works when the webhelp is displayed in Chrome and Firefox. Index, Search and Glossary are working in all three browsers.
Does this sound familiar to anybody? It seems to be a different problem from the one that was addressed by the recent fixes.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Juliette
Working on a deadline and getting rather stressed....

Do you have the latest IE patches installed? See

SSIS 2012 Script Task Debugging not working (VSTA Popup but no script displayed in IDE)

Hi,
I am trying to debug 2012 SSIS Package but for some reason its not working. Basically when I run package (64bit mode) it pop up Script IDE but never brings up Script (see below). Usually when debugging of script starts it should break execution at the code.
Anybody experienced this issue with SSIS 2012 ?

Task Sequence not installing patches

Hi,
In order to automate the patching process for servers, I have a task sequence that runs at a specific time which triggers a wuauclt.exe scan to check for updates. I have a software update group created with the patches that we want to install. This time
around the patches were available in software center but were not installed. I just would like to clarify what I found as to what may be the reason for this. The task sequence that is deployed has an assignment schedule of 4/11/15 At 03:00 and will run for
a maximum of 120 minutes. Checking the software update group scheduling properties, the software available time is set to 4/11/15 At 12:00.
Would this be why the patches did not install because the software available time was after the task sequence was finished running?
TIA

Hi,
The Software update muse be available to install through a TS as well, that is what I have seen in the past as well.
