How to easily find which fixlet is causing "Unknown action command"?

Hi everyone,

I'm running into an issue today after building a baseline for this month's Patch Tuesday updates. The baseline contains 97 components.

When I attempt to take action, I get the following error immediately:

”Invalid Action Script

One of the actions in this multiple action group contains an invalid action script. Unable to parse action script line 1:

Unknown action command.

You will need to fix this error before issuing the action.”

It seems one of the components has a bad script, but Christ I really want to avoid opening all 97 components individually to find it.

Is there a way (maybe via session relevance) to quickly identify which specific component in the baseline is triggering this error?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Can you check baseline for any fixlet which says “No Action selected” something like this. Or if you are seeing option to sync all components, this could be the easiest fix.

I have had this happen before. It is a pain.

Did you choose each fixlet and add them one at a time or did you add them from a filter or something like that? I ask because if you can export them all into a single .bes file, you can open in an editor and search for "<ActionScript" and find the first line of every action script for all 97 components. You should be able to spot the issue fairly easy.

The one I had an issue with had a : on the first line.

Hopefully this session relevance will pull the first line of the action for each component in your baseline, just replace ##### with the name of your baseline.

Hi @adeilson it’s most likely caused by the following fixlet:

5076122: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Microsoft server operating system version 24H2 - Windows Server 2025 - KB5076122 (x64)

Please verify that “Action1” is selected in your baseline. We are actively addressing this issue and it will be resolved in a future site propagation. Thanks, Gus.

Hi @adeilson , this issue has been fixed in Patches for Windows, version: 4675. Please re-sync this fixlet and verify that Action1 is the default. Thanks Gus.
