Hi everyone, I'm working on a little repair script within our enterprise, and during the process this includes reinstalling SCCM (with the command line parameters from a batch file) This works well, but I'm looking to employ some error handling. My problem is (I think!) this: - The batch file calls the .exe - The .exe calls the .msi - The .MSI Reports the exit code to the .exe - The .exe reports its own exit code to the batch file This leaves the batch file unable to detect whether the install was successful or not. Does this sound plausibly like the issue? If so, is there a way to pass the MSI's exit code to the .bat directly? Thanks for any advice or input :-)

You can use the exit code reported by the .exe to exit the batch, so ConfigMgr will know how the .exe ended.Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

Hi Torsten, Thanks for your response. I'm not sure if I'm doing it wrong now, but it's definitely not reporting back a correct error level. Here's basically what I'm doing: ccmsetup.exe (arguments) ECHO: %ERRORLEVEL% This is returning 1 every time - even on a successful install. Am I doing this wrong? Thank you once again!

Just use ccmsetup.exe (arguments) or ccmsetup.exe (arguments) exit %ERRORLEVEL% Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

Just use ccmsetup.exe (arguments) or ccmsetup.exe (arguments) exit %ERRORLEVEL% Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de Thanks again for the response Torsten. This one is also problematic, as the script I'm hoping to do will continue on, and dependant on the result, do some further troubleshooting. Is there a way to report back the errorlevel without exiting the bat?

Then use a conditional and store %ERRORLEVEL% in another variable and then later in the script you can use this variable as the return/exit value: if ERRORLEVEL 1 exit %ERRORLEVEL% set CCMSETUPERRORLEVEL = %ERRORLEVEL% ... exit %CCMSETUPERRORLEVEL% Note that I'm not positive if you need the %ERRORLEVEL% at the end of the first line above -- test it out and see.Jason | http://blog.configmgrftw.com
