Problem
Using an OnEvent action to launch VBScripts fails because wscript.exe cannot be found when called with the path implied.
For example:
- OnPostActivate = "wscript.exe Sample_Script.vbs"
Error
Wscript.exe cannot be found.
Environment
Symantec Workspace Virtualization 6.1 SP7 MP1
Windows Vista
Cause
This is a change in behavior from SVS 2.1.3078.
Solution
This issue will be fixed in a future release of Symantec Workspace Virtualization.
The Workaround is to use the full path to wscript.exe
For example:
- OnPostActivate = "C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe Sample_Script.vbs"
