Thanks Wade,

I have a line in the vbscript that writes the current directory to a file
and some other debug stuff.  If I run this package as a regular SCCM
package (as download and execute), the current directory is C:\Windows
\.....\cache\... and everything works just fine.  If I run this package
thru a task sequence and DynamicPackaging (reading from the SQL database to
see what is installed), the current directory is \\distribution point
\packageID.  So in both cases the vbscript starts but the objshell.run
(notepad.exe) does not run in the DynamicPackaging.  I just tried opening a
cmd window and running the exe from a full path and it works.  Now what??

The issue with vbs run is its looking for the file in the wrong location
(where ever the default path is).  If you open a cmd window and don't cd to
the directory of your script and run it with the full path you should be
able to recreate the problem.  I have found scripts so you figure out where
the vbs file is so you can run the full path to your exe. I am ooo so I
don't have any examples but I bet this is your issue.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] DynamicPackaging running EXE's




I am using DynamicPackaging to replace applications when I upgrade to
Windows 7.  I have my standard SCCM Packages that work very well.  I have a
package that is "Install NotePad".  In SCCM packages I start the install by
calling "cscript.exe NotePad.vbs".  In the vbs script I use objshell.run
"NotepadInstaller.exe /S, 1, TRUE".  Then copy some dll's to the notepad
folder.  This works well in MDT or SCCM., but not in DynamicPackaging.  If
I have a msi instead of an exe DynamicPackaging works.  How can I call an
exe inside of a vbs script to made this work??
