run

I use the following command in one of my packages

Code: Select all

run_notfatal(r'wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow')

But I get the following message:

Warning: Command 'wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow' returned non-zero exit status 1.
Output: 'wuauclt.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, executable program or batch file.

However, I can run this command manually on the machine; I haven't found an explanation in the Wapt documentation...

The path to system32 needs to be specified

Code: Select all

run( '"%s" /resetauthorization /detectnow' % makepath(system32,'wuauclt.exe') )

Sorry, but I'm still getting the following error with this last command:

Warning: Command '"C:\\Windows\\system32\\wuauclt.exe" /resetauthorization /detectnow' returned non-zero exit status 1.
Output: "C:\\Windows\\system32\\wuauclt.exe" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Likely a 32-64 bit redirection problem because wapt is 32-bit so Windows makes a "transparent" rewrite of certain paths to show the wapt process a 32-bit type system.

To disable this redirection:

Code: Select all

with disable_file_system_redirection():
    run( '"%s" /resetauthorization /detectnow' % makepath(system32,'wuauclt.exe') )

Yes, it works well with the disable_file_system_redirection instruction, thank you!
