How to create Fixlet of a command line

[asuleman]

I have a working command that runs properly in command prompt but I can’t get it to work in a fixlet

WMIC product where "Name LIKE '%Java%'" call uninstall

tried the following in a fixlet. it doesn’t uninstall anything but it says fixed since successful completion of all lines in actionscript

delete __createfile
delete run.bat
createfile until _end_
WMIC product where "Name LIKE '%Java%'" call uninstall /nointeractive
_end_
move __createfile run.bat
wait run.bat

WMIC product where “Name LIKE ‘%Java%’” call uninstall /nointeractive

Is there a reason you are using a batch script rather than simply running the command in the fixlet itself?

wait "WMIC product where "Name LIKE '%Java%'" call uninstall /nointeractive"

That said, from what I see it looks like it ran correctly using what you had…

STATUS: Running action…
Command succeeded delete No ‘D:\Program Files (x86)\BigFix Enterprise\BES Client__BESData__FixletDebugger__createfile’ exists to delete, no failure reported
Command succeeded delete No ‘D:\Program Files (x86)\BigFix Enterprise\BES Client__BESData__FixletDebugger\run.bat’ exists to delete, no failure reported
Command succeeded createfile until
Command succeeded move __createfile run.bat
Command started - wait run.bat
Command succeeded (Exit Code=0) wait run.bat

— Result —
Evaluation completed successfully!

You could use the fixlet debugger to help with this too

my bigfix action will say the same thing…successful completion but the java installs still show in control panel. when I run the single command in cmd prompt it will actually uninstall all java versions installed on the machine

here is a pic of running a .bat file I created and manually ran on the machine. it says it can’t find an instance but if i ran the same exact command directly in cmd prmpt it will find installs and uninstall them. something changes or it doesn’t interpret the same when running in a .bat file or actionscript…

In a batch file, %JAVA% would evaluate as an environment variable named JAVA (no such variable exists). Try using %%Java%% to pass literal % signs.

thanks I was able to get it working.
1-created batch file with single command line
WMIC product where "Name LIKE '%%Java%%'" call uninstall
2-created software distribution management package, uploaded the file, created task with command line
nameoffile.bat
3-fixlet works removing all java versions 32 or 64 bit
