Workstation 7.1 - using "nogui" option to start the VM - having problems

Hello

I am running some automated install testing and am finding that won't start all the processes that are supposed to start once the installation is complete.

I'm X product installation on a virtual machine Windows Win7 64 bit which was started by an automated script using vmrun... start with nogui option.

After producing X has finished installing, fileX.exe is supposed to run and start the process of silica and launch a toolbar on the virtual machine.  This is not the case.

"Nogui" also affects this toolbar to launch?

Any idea is appreciated

Thank you

Hi JerriM,

I took a quick glance through your script, but I don't know Robot management.

Let me give you a quick description of some vmrun options that could help.

To start vmrun-

nogui: this shouldn't affect what happens in the virtual machine. It is to determine if the virtual machine, when consumed, does within de VMware Workstation user interface, or if it runs in the background on the host computer.

For vmrun runProgramInGuest -.

Interactive: I think that's the problem. When you run a program using vmrun, by default it is started by a service Windows running inside the guest. On Windows Vista and later versions, the services have not access to any office user environment. They exist in some hidden Office. So, no matter what UI start by these applications will be never visible by the user. If you need start a program that must interact with directly (via the console/customer display) then you should use the "-interactive ' option. However, this requires that the user account must be connected to the Windows desktop computer (such as through the screen when Windows starts connection); the easiest way is to activate the automatic connection, so that the account will automatically connect.

noWait: This makes output vmrun earlier program in housing starts comments, rather than wait for it to come out.

activeWindow: This makes the program run in the comments, if it is a user interface, start with a non-minimized window.

Let me know if it helps.

  • How to use an option button in the report of the IR to redirect itself to view another report

    IHH team, I have a requirement where I have an IR report option button. By clicking this radio button, another report appears under the main report with few other details of the selected item. The idea was to have a zoom of report as seen in the Group of MS Excel.  However, I am stuck because I don't want the user to press the "submit" button each time after selection of a radio button. I want the result to Report2 to change on the selection radio button in report 1.

    Please notify.

    Kind regards

    Samar

    for example

    Report1 details

    RB col_id text1 text2 Text3

    1 . abc erd 45

    2 ghj dfgrt 67

    Suppose the user selects the first option button, the page displays another report with details below the main report

    Report1 details

    col1_id text1 text2 Text3

    RB1 1 abc erd 45

    2 RB2 ghj dfgrt 67

    Report2 details

    I was able to achieve using the linl. I created a link on the col_id and it redirected to itself after you set the value of col2_id. I also changed the style of the button link and so col1_id looks like a button.

    However, I was interested to know if we can achieve this with a radio button and use the update form the Report2.

    You mean like this? It is very simple to implement using dynamic measurements.

    1. Add a column of radio group to the main report:

    select
        apex_item.radiogroup(1, d.department_id) rbg
      , d.*
    from
        oehr_departments d
    

    APEX 5.0, apply a static ID "rbg" to the column of radio group.

    2. create a hidden page unprotected element to maintain the value of the selected radio button to use as a filter in the detailed report. In the example, it is P31_DEPARTMENT_ID.

    3 refer to the element of filter in the WHERE clause of the report detail:

    select
        *
    from
        oehr_employees
    where
        department_id = :p31_department_id
    

    Set the Items property of the Page to send in the definition of report P31_DEPARTMENT_IDretail area.

    4. create a dynamic action of change on the Group of radio buttons:

    Event: Change

    Selection type: jQuery Selector

    jQuery Selector:td[headers="rbg"] input[type="radio"]

    Real Actions

    Seq: 10

    Action: Set value

    Type of value: Expression of JavaScript

    JavaScript expression:$(this.triggeringElement).val()

    Selection type: Article (s)

    Point: P31_DEPARTMENT_ID

    Seq: 20

    Action: Discount

    Selection type: Region

  • Pavilion dv6700: Pavilion laptop computer under Vista: Windows does not start, the Startup Repair cannot fix it. What to do next?

    Hello
    My laptop seven year old made me proud til yesterday, but now it does not fire upwards. Instead, it hangs for a minute or two (black screen, no HARD drive light blinks, nothing), while it charges to a screen with two options - either start the system restart or start Windows normally. The second option takes me around the loop again. The first option tells me that it cannot fix the problem automatically. When I display the error details, it lists all of the tests, as adopted successfully, but ends with the words: "Root cause found: failure so that the Setup program is underway.

    I'm sure I know why she fell: two days ago, I left all my files on a portable player and defragmented the disk. The idea was to speed up the machine and get it running like new. He immediately started to hang when connecting, so I thought, well I'll go for a complete restoration of the system. I followed the procedure using the disks provided with the machine, and that's when it stopped working completely. I felt that this was more than the aging than HARD drive could take.

    My attempts at rejuvenation have actually caused his untimely death? Or is there a difficulty - something I could undertake?

    Or should I just bite the bullet and go and buy a new machine? When everything (screen, keyboard and trackpad) worked so well, it seems a shame...

    Any help or thoughts welcome. Thank you

    If you really want to resurrect, you could certainly purchase a new hard drive and try to restore the system of work using the recovery media - but then, even if it did work, you would have still lost all your data, settings, and applications in the process - and having to reinstall all your applications everywhere again.

    Hey, don't feel bad, I'm guilty of this too - has recently attempted to resurrect an era Tablet XP PC so that it can run Win10!  He went from XP to Vista, Win7, for Win8 - and along the way, gains of new memory and drives hard - but the Win10 bet was too.  So, I got to a "give up to use it.

    However, I also kept a cell phone 5 year alive by replacing the HDD with a SSD and adding more memory.  So now it is faster than ever, it has been and works like new.

    But... He has NO touchscreen, there no USB3 ports, it doesn't have 1 GB ethernet - and the list goes.

    Thus, it works very well for what we use it for - but it can't really be upgraded, so sooner or later, we will have to replace it.

    Everything depends on how much you need 'new' - touch screen, stylus, handwriting, camera, 3 USB ports, display port jack, HDMI ports... etc.

    Try to restart Firefox, the time of a page (s) after the beginning of a new version should disappear. In fact this last time with 8.0 they did not come to the top for me.

    If it works then raise Subject: config and insert the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that appears and use "Reset".

    With regard to the option ATI;

    Hello

    -What is the operating system installed on your computer?

    -What do you mean by "he went there nothing"? You receive all of the options for change or it appears grayed out?

    -Did you do changes on the computer before this problem?

    To Cancel the changes in the game, you need to start the game. If you're not bale to use the tab game fall down, I suggest you to press Ctrl + z to undo the move and check if it helps.

    To change the appearance, I suggest you to press F7 and check if that helps.

    Method 1: As the first method of resolution, I suggest to uninstall and reinstall the game to Windows features turn on or off and check if the problem persists.

    Follow the steps to uninstall and reinstall the game:

    Step 1: Uninstall the Chess Titans:

    1. go to Start and in the search type "Turn Windows features on or off".

    Reinstall the Chess Titans:


    1. go to Start and in the search type "Turn Windows features on or off".
    2. Select "Turn Windows features on or off".
    3. find the games and check mark in front of ""Chess Titans ". "

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
    (a) click Startand type cmd in the box start the search.
