Can anyone point me to the error codes of RunAs or Run?

[LuI]

Hi all,

sorry for that Q, but I cant find my solution :-((

I try to call a console program using Run() or RunAs(), but I get a PID=0 and @error=1. Error codes are not explained in the help. Can someone help out?

TIA

Hi Doc,

can you show your code please?

Otherwise we can assume only what might be wrong.

PID=0 means the run command was not successfull.

RUN() Return Value

Success: The PID of the process that was launched.

Failure: Returns 0 and sets @error to non-zero

Post the script

Sorry guys,

I was more interested in WHAT error 1 means resp. where I can read that.

But here we go:

$Shl = "command /c"

$Cmd = "PGRestaWS"

$usr = "yyy"

$Domn = "xxx"

$Shw = @SW_MINIMIZE

$AsAdmin = 0

If $AsAdmin Then

$PID = RunAs($usr, $usr, $Domn, 4, $Shl&$Cmd, _

$Path, $Shw, 0x3) ; Call a console ; Call a console as admin

$MyError=@error

Else

$PID = Run($Shl&$Cmd, $Path, $Shw, 0x3) ; Call a console as user

$MyError=@error

EndIf

Try this

$Shl = @ComSpec & " /c "
$Cmd = "PGRestaWS"
$usr = "yyy"
$Domn = "xxx"
$Shw = @SW_MINIMIZE
$AsAdmin = 0
$Path = ""

If $AsAdmin Then
    $PID = RunAs($usr, $usr, $Domn, 4, $Shl&$Cmd, _
      $Path, $Shw, 0x3)    ; Call a console                ; Call a console as admin
    $MyError=@error
Else
    $PID = Run($Shl&$Cmd, $Path, $Shw, 0x3)                ; Call a console as user
    $MyError=@error
EndIf

And please use code tags when posting the code

UEZ,

thx for your solution.

I assume RunAs() does really need the complete path to cmd; having cmd in the search path is not enough?!

Anyway, do you have a ref to the error codes as being returned by Run() and RunAs()?

I'll try my best with code tags in future. Had been away from here for looong time ;-)

Googling for 'RunAs Error Code 1' returns a lot of links. At least a few made the impression that a fully qualified path is required as the help to RunAs() states.
