Windows 7 Cant Execute VBS Script From network

[c0nfuser]

Hello,

I have an application which a pc in the newtork runs a VBS script to another pc and executes some actions. It works fine in physical/Virtual machines of Windows XP and Physical machines of WIN7 but the script is not executing in Virtual Machines with WIN7. Do you have any idea what is wrong? The code is fine I tested by a very simple script (just a mesage box ) and still didnt work.. Should be something with the network permission ..

Cheers

It sounds like you are encountering an issue where a VBScript that is supposed to run from one PC to another within a network is not working properly on Virtual Machines with Windows 7. Since the script executes successfully on physical/virtual machines with Windows XP and physical machines with Windows 7, but not on virtual machines with Windows 7, the issue might be related to the configuration or permissions within the virtual machines. Here are a few suggestions to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue: 1. Firewall Settings: - Check the firewall settings on the Windows 7 virtual machines. Ensure that the necessary ports are open to allow communication between the machines. - Try temporarily disabling the firewall to see if it resolves the issue. If it does, you may need to adjust the firewall settings to allow the script to run. 2. Network Configuration: - Verify the network configuration on the Windows 7 virtual machines. Ensure they are in the same network as the machines where the script runs successfully. - Check for any networking issues that may be preventing communication between the machines. 3. Permissions: - Ensure that the user account under which the script is running has the necessary permissions to execute scripts and perform the required actions on the Windows 7 virtual machines. - Check both share and NTFS permissions on the folders/files involved in the script execution. 4. Execution Policies: - Check the execution policy for VBScripts on the Windows 7 virtual machines. You may need to adjust the execution policy to allow scripts to run. 5. Group Policy Settings: - Review the Group Policy settings on the Windows 7 virtual machines. There might be specific policies affecting script execution that need to be configured appropriately. 6. Debugging: - Add logging statements within the script to trace the progress of the script execution on the Windows 7 virtual machines. This can help pinpoint where the script is failing. By checking these points and making the necessary adjustments, you may be able to identify the specific issue causing the script not to execute on the Windows 7 virtual machines. If you encounter any specific error messages or behaviors during the script execution, providing those details could help in further troubleshooting the issue.
