Office plugin on Windows 8.1

Question

Hi,

I installed the latest agent (2.1.2) and Office plugin (PluginOcsOfficekey-2.2.4).

When the agent tries to run the script it gives the following errors in the log:

EXECUTABLE PLUGIN => Searching for VBS script(s) in folder <C:\Program Files (x86)\OCS Inventory Agent\plugins>
    EXECUTABLE PLUGIN => Found executable plugin <msofficekey.vbs>
    WARNING *** EXECUTABLE PLUGIN => Executable plugin <C:\Program Files (x86)\OCS Inventory Agent\plugins\msofficekey.vbs> output is not UTF-8 encoded or an XML document, trying to UTF-8 encode
    WARNING *** EXECUTABLE PLUGIN => Executable plugin <C:\Program Files (x86)\OCS Inventory Agent\plugins\msofficekey.vbs> output encoded to UTF-8, trying to reload XML document
ERROR *** EXECUTABLE PLUGIN => Executable plugin <C:\Program Files (x86)\OCS Inventory Agent\plugins\msofficekey.vbs> output is not a valid XML document

and creates a file in c:\program data\ocs inventory ng\agent\
The filename is: msofficekey.vbs.xml and the content is:

'cscript' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

when i try to run cscript from cmd i have no problem at all.

Any idea why is this works differently on Windows 8?

 

Thanks, Robert

Hi,
Your vbs must not be named .vbs.xml but only .CBS

The script not named as msofficekey.vbs.xml the script (msofficekey.vbs) creates a file which is named as msofficekey.vbs.xml and the content is:

'cscript' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

And the log contains the UTF8 errors.
