	Do i need the server component running to make use of Kixtart login script. Can i run a login script on a machine that is a standalone workstation?
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-04 11:10 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Yes it will run stand-alone. Some macros rely on a server however.

	Please read the KiXtart Manual, it explains how KiXtart can be used as a login script processor. Additionally, please read Kixtart Starter's Guide . Finally, KiXtart can run as a 'stand-alone' product, too, as it just process the script that is passed to it through the command line.

	I'm just running through the kixstart starters guide now. And when i run the 'hello.kix' script from the command prompt, i get this error "Script error: unknown or unexpected command [Hello.kix]! --------start Hello.kix--------" Any ideas? Rob.

	the first quote is missing from the start of the line.
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-04 11:39 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	the command should be: kix32 hello.kix
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-04 11:43 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	OH I get it... you are taking the instructions too literally. The two lines: --------start Hello.kix-------- -------- end Hello.kix-------- are not meant to be in the text file, only: "Hello World" If you want the other two to be ignored, remm it out with a semicolon. ;--------start Hello.kix-------- "Hello World" ;-------- end Hello.kix--------
datsun120y (Fresh Scripter) 2002-12-04 11:45 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Sorry the missing quote and i left out the command i used to trigger it was my fault. Here is the full listing below from the command line. C:\>kix32 hello 0Script error: unknown or unexpected command [hello.kix]! --------start hello.kix--------
Lonkero (KiX Master Guru) 2002-12-04 11:47 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	like I said, missing quote! ---- is not kixtart command. you need to comment out the line or add quotes around it!
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-04 11:47 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Read my second reply.
Lonkero (KiX Master Guru) 2002-12-04 11:48 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone

	Don't let Jooel confuse you!
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-04 11:52 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	What Jooel is trying to say is that if you wrapped those two lines that were never intended to be in the script in the first place, it would fix the problem. "--------start Hello.kix--------" ? "Hello World" ? "-------- end Hello.kix--------" ? Like I said, don't let him confuse you.
Lonkero (KiX Master Guru) 2002-12-04 11:54 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	yep, I'm just dude speaking jooelish or lurenkoish from time to time
datsun120y (Fresh Scripter) 2002-12-04 11:59 PM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Here is the file i'm calling, that is straight out of the starters guide. Not sure what your intending with the quotes. Rob. --------start hello.kix-------- "Hello World" -------- end hello.kix---------
Lonkero (KiX Master Guru) 2002-12-05 12:01 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	well, les explained that in his last to replyes pretty well. remove those "---" lines or add quotes around them.
Howard Bullock (KiX Supporter) 2002-12-05 12:01 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	As shown a couple post above; you will have to put quotes around the first and third lines or use a semi-colon to comment them out.
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-05 12:02 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	What did I say about ignoring Jooel and his quotes? Forget the quotes. Reread my second post. The only think that is supposed to be in the file is: "Hello World"
datsun120y (Fresh Scripter) 2002-12-05 12:05 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Are u sure your not getting confused with the ---------- characters that automatically get appended to the post etc?
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-05 12:07 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Certain! There should only be about 13 characters in your script.
datsun120y (Fresh Scripter) 2002-12-05 12:09 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Sorry understood. Changed and fixed. Thanks for your guys patience. I misunderstood the starter guide. Rob
Les (KiX Master) 2002-12-05 12:12 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Partly my fault... kept harping back to my second post. Actually it is the third...
Bryce (KiX Supporter) 2002-12-05 04:23 AM	Re: can Kixtart run as a standalone
	Hi, The lines in the Starters Guide --------start Hello.kix-------- -------- end Hello.kix-------- Are not ment to be copied into the script file to be ran. If you were to Download the hyper linked zip file you will find all of the example scripts in the zip file. I really need to update the Starters Guide I glanced through it the other night.... it is a little bit out of date! Bryce
