PSTOOLS Office Activation Not Working

> It appears to run fine.

How can you confirm? A log created?

If you run it manually on a client, does it work?

Here is what I get from manual run on a single computer


Even though the cmd starts in the I:\ path, it doesn't seem to find the C:\ path.

I think I know what it is. The end user doesn't have access to the C drive, so the command can't locate anything in C:\.
That is why the command won't work properly when run from PSESXEC?
Is there a way to get the batch file to run cmd as admin?

Your image differs from your first post code, i.e. "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\cscript ospp.vbs /act"

Per your first post, cscript is assumed to reside in "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15"

cscript.exe normally resides in C:\Windows\System32 and does not need to be placed in another folder. Try:

psexec @c:\list.txt -d -n 5 -u domain\adminuser -p password cmd /c "cscript ospp.vbs /act"

Select allOpen in new window

If I run it from system32 folder, cscript won't know how to find the ospp.vbs.

What do you think about this?

In OCT I set it to run c:\windows\system32\cscript C:\"Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\OSPP.VBS" /act

Fixed:

c:\windows\system32\cscript "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\OSPP.VBS" /act

Select allOpen in new window

OK, so I've got this:

psexec @c:\list2.txt -d -n 5 -u domain\username -p password cmd /c c:\windows\system32\cscript "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\OSPP.VBS" /inpkey:12345-12345-12345-12345-12345

Select allOpen in new window

and

psexec @c:\list2.txt -d -n 5 -u domain\usernme -p password cmd /c c:\windows\system32\cscript "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\OSPP.VBS" /act

Select allOpen in new window

Running it now on a select few machines.

Didnt work. This is what I got:


So it looks like while the cscript is loading, part of the c:\ runs and then finishes program files, etc. afterwards.

What about adding a timeout?

psexec @c:\list2.txt -d -n 5 -u domain\username -p password cmd /c c:\windows\system32\cscript 
<enter a TIMEOUT /T1 here?>
"c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\OSPP.VBS" /act

Select allOpen in new window

That did it! Thanks a bunch for your help! You seriously got me out of a pickle!!

I was glad to help, Paul. I know how that feels. 8-)
