I automatically install software on 3 machines in our lab, and at the end of the process, use eLOG to record relevant information for each machine (all running Windows XP) via the command line program elog.exe. 2 of the machines log their info correctly, but on third machine, I get the following error:
Cannot retrieve host name: No error
The error is not very clear (i.e., the error is "no error"?), and furthermore, operationally, the error makes no sense to me, for the three machines are supposedly configured the same. Additionally, the elog.exe used is stored on a network drive, as are the other batch files that all3 machines use, so it is not as a problem could creep in due to differing versions/configurations of files.
Just in case I am overlooking something, here's the command line invocation (I've X'd out sensitive information):
C:\>x:\@adat\tools\elog.exe -h max13 -l "Maxtee" -u xxxxxxxxxx xx1234 -a Tester=AULS_xxx_y -a M
achine="Mercury 99" -a "Module Type"=Controller -a "Action Description=Configuration Change" -
a Title="AULS upgraded to 1.2.7344 from [1.1.7343]." -a "Card Count=998352" -m X:\@ADAT\InterimP
F\MERCURY29.Blat_Msg1_PostBoot.TXT 1>X:\@ADAT\InterimPF\MERCURY29_eLog_CmdLineOutput1_(PostBoot).txt
Cannot retrieve host name: No error
Obvoiusly, there *must* be some configuration difference between the 2 working and 1 non-working machine, but I am at a loss to figure it out.
I am not sure which version of eLOG is being used, but the size of the elog.exe is 139,264.
I suggest a new option be added to display the version information, or display the version info whenever eLOG is execute, or display the version info when "-?" option is used. |
