New to Kixtart so bare with me please if this is a basic problem.
Using Kixtart 4.12:
When copying a file from a server to a client where the file already exists on the client - the script terminates. I want the script to overwrite the file and am using the basic copy statement with no joy. Works fine when I try on my client but not on any of the other clients. I can't get the script to delete or move a file on a client either?
code:
$FileName='<test.doc>'
$SrcPath='\\<server>\<folder>\'
$DestPath='C:\Program Files\<folder>\'
$DestFile=$DestPath+'\'+$FileName
$SrcFile=$SrcPath+'\'+$FileName
if comparefiletimes($DestFile,$SrcFile)<0 or 1-exist($DestFile)
copy $SrcFile $DestPath
endif

Thanks for the quick replies. I am guessing this is a permissions or rights issue however do not have enough experience to make the call. The odd thing is that the user DOES have permission <full control> on this file through windows - its only when executing the login script that there seems to be a permission issue

@serror get $keypress returns a quote:
access is denied
error. however, I again confirm the user has full rights to this file...

user has rights to source and destination. Also, no the file is not in use. The problem seems to be only occuring when writing to anywhere in c:\program files\

since you have spaces in the destination path, did you try adding double quotes to the begining and end of the destination path?

Print the line you are executing to verify that it is attempting what you expect.
code:
? 'copy $SrcFile $DestPath'
Get $
when the script stops with theis on the screen compare it to the DOS command that worked. Is it the same?
Copy it and try it in another DOS window.
