Post Job Script - vbscript?

Deadline
1

how does Deadline execute the Post Job vbscript? Does it use full-fledged vbscript or have you embedded a subset of vbscript in Deadline?



In my vbscript file I am trying to launch an external script via:



Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject(“WScript.Shell”)

WshShell.Run( commandLine )



but Deadline reports this error:



Scheduler Thread - Error executing post job script: Line 32: Object required: ‘WScript’ (ExocortexScripting.Exceptions.ScriptException)





I am used to launching vbscripts via WSH ( CScript or WScript ). If that functionality isn’t available to me, how should I execute command lines from with the Deadline post job vbscript?



Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,



Try this:



Set WshShell = CreateObject( “WScript.Shell” )

WshShell.Run commandLine
