[Unattended] Adobe Reader Script
I recently updated my scripts from cvs and Adobe Reader is failing on this line: todo.pl .ignore-err 255 %Z%\scripts\all\adobe-reader.bat I don't even have a scripts\all directory. Is this a mistake? It appears that Adobe Reader is installed and I can ignore the problem. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

Try to check out this script again, it should work now. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

Re: [Unattended] Adobe reader script
I think I understand In the for %%M in (WHATEVER) do SOMETHING command, when WHATEVER contains a wildcard, then %%M = the filespec for every file that matches the wildcard, and it also executes the do command for each file? Does that sound right?

Can anyone explain to me what this line in the adobe-reader.bat file is trying to do? I can't find any reference to what %m or %%m referrs to, and that script will randomly fail on me. todo.pl for %%m in (\%TEMP%\adberdr\Adobe Reader 7.0*.msi\) do msiexec /qb /l* %SystemDrive%\netinst\logs\adobe-reader.txt /i \%%m\ REBOOT=ReallySuppress
