Have you ever done it? I have tried using WScipt.Shell in about every way
that I know how and it doesn't execute the script. If you have an example I
would appreciate seeing it.
Thanks

There are lots of sample scripts on the web. When you say "it doesn't

I get no indication that the script worked. The script is supposed to
create a small text file. The file ain't there! When I execute the script
from the command line it works fine.

Do you have On Error Resume Next in your ASP page?
Also, when you talk about a script - I assume you don't mean a .bat batch
file, but rather a .vbs WScript file (or similar)?

Hi Larry,
Did you want to execute a VBS file or some VB Script code? On client side
or server side?

I'm talking about a .vbs WScript.
Here is the ASP Page ( in wwwroot ):
<% dim s
s=Server.MapPath("listprocesses.vbs")
CommandLine s,""
Sub CommandLine(progName,strVariable)
'Create Shell Object
Set objScriptShell = Server.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
'now run your program and dump the results into a .txt file
ss= "cscript " & progName & " " & strVariable _
& "> " & Server.MapPath("shellLog") & "\log" & ".txt"
objScriptShell.Run (ss, 0, True)
End Sub
And here is the vbs script that I am trying to execute ( in wwwroot ):
'
' listprocesses.vbs
'
set objService = getobject("winmgmts:")
dim s
for each Process in objService.InstancesOf("Win32_process")
if lcase(process.name)="dllhost.exe" then
s=s & Process.Name & vbTab & Process.processid & vbCrLf
end if
Next
WScript.echo s

Could this be the problem? Given that you've already checked Permissions,
that is: http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2180

Ken,
Additional information:
I am getting a return code of "1" from the Run method--but can't find any MS
doc that tells me what that means.

That's an "error". Possible return codes are (if I'm looking at the right
info):
0 SUCCESS
1 ERROR
2 WARNING
4 INFORMATION
8 AUDIT_SUCCESS
16 AUDIT_FAILURE
Looking at the script you are running - I suspect that IUSR_<machinename>
wouldn't be able to enumerate a list of running processes (if it is in the
Guests group) - but I'm not sure about that.
Can you turn off "Allow Anonymous Access", and authenticate as a local
administrator, and see if your script runs?
Cheers

I think that it is something much more basic, Ken. I commented ALL of the
lines of the script and I am still getting the return code of 1. I checked
the script and all permissions are turned on ("Full Control"). Also inetpub
and wwwroot. I can't figure out what I am missing.

Hi Larry,
I found "WScript.Echo" in your VBS code, this method will outputs text to
either a message box or the command console window. However, you can't do
this in ASP server side. You may use LogEvent method instead.
