I am not sure this is the right forum for my question, but I hope that somebody can help.
I am attempting to implement a power-on script in ACE, but up to now I was unable to get a script work...
I created a simple VBscript file that makes a file copy and returns 0 (FALSE) but it does not work.
The script body is:
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("C:\mio105.txt")
wscript.quit 0
and I run it as cscript //B script001.vbs
While starting up my ACE VM I get the following error: Error running your ACE's power on hook policy script: An internal error was encountered while running and the log says:
Sep 19 14:31:53.298: vmx| Policy_RunPowerOnHook: bad script output, expected either TRUE or FALSE.
Sep 19 14:31:53.298: vmx| PolicyVMX_PowerOn: failed call to run power on hook: 7.
Sep 19 14:31:53.298: vmx| Msg_Post: Error
Sep 19 14:31:53.298: vmx| http://msg.vmx.poweronHookError Error running your ACE's power on hook policy script: An internal error was encountered while running
I can see that the script did run because I find file c:\mio105.txt, so the problem is the return code: how can I set it?
I made a different test with a .bat file whose body is:
@echo off
copy c:\mio100.txt c:\mio102.txt
exit /B FALSE
and I get the same error and the same entries in the log.
Is it available aniwhere even a single sample of a working power-on startup script in either VBscript or as a DOS .bat file?
Can anybody please help?
