Okay, this is some ugly code, but please review it as it hopefully might be a little more what you're looking for.

Part of the issue though I think is that the installer may be rebooting your system before the log can write if the installer process reboots. You need to write to the log just before you run the installer.


Code:


Break On

Dim $ServerChk
;If WIN9X then exit
If @INWIN <> 1
  Exit 10
EndIf

;Check for Server and exit if Server found
$ServerChk = ReadValue('HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions','ProductType')
If $ServerChk<>'WinNT'	;System is not a Workstation
  Exit 10
EndIf

;Check to see if Hummingbird DM has already run  on this machine
If Exist('\\filer-lan\data\printer\hummingbird\dm_install\'+@WKSTA+'_DLL.txt')
  ;If file found exit script
  Exit 13
EndIf

;Check to see if Hummingbird DM has already run  on this machine
If Exist('\\filer-lan\data\printer\hummingbird\dm_install\'+@WKSTA+'_DM.txt')
  Exit 10
EndIf

;If the folder C:\Program Files\Hummingbird\DM Extensions does not exist create it
If GetFileAttr($directory) & 16
  ;Do nothing
Else
  ;Create it
  MD ('%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Hummingbird')
  MD ('%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Hummingbird\DM Extensions')
EndIf

$ERR_DLL_logfile = 'R:\printer\hummingbird\dm_install\ERR_'+@WKSTA+'_DLL.txt'
$DateTime = @DATE+'_'+@TIME
$dmcode = ""
$SleepTime = 40

  $dmcode = @ERROR
  If $dmcode <> 0
    ;Write to log file if the dll was not copied in the time allowed
    $WL=WriteProfileString($ERR_DLL_logfile,$DateTime,@USERID,'dmlookup.bat Return Code = '+$dmcode)
  Else
    $WL=WriteProfileString($OK_DLL_logfile,$DateTime,@USERID,'APA_PROD.bat Return Code = 0')
  EndIf
EndFunction
