Help with script installing printers on 32-bit systems
I am having trouble getting the script below to run on 32-bit XP and 2003 systems when pushed from the K1000. However, if I run it from a batch file saved to c:\ it runs with no issues. The printer port gets created and the print spooler restarts, but the command prompt windows doesn't popup and rundll32 does not run. On the Win7 64-bit machines I have tested it on, it runs with no issues and the cmd windows appears and displays the proper echo messages when pushed from the K1000. I tried changing it from offline kscript to online kscript. As an online script I have tried it using both local system and run as using domain admin credentials.
I am using the most recent version for the K1000 and agent.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have modifed the script. I am deploying this on a workgroup system running Windows 7 64-bit. It errors out at Installing 64-bit drivers... - akilpatrick 10 years ago

Answer Summary:
I found a solution...since the file runs locally, I attached the the .bat file as a dependency and then use launch a program to run it from the dependency folder on the pc. This allows it to run successfully on XP, 2003, and 7, either x86 or x64. I gave pjgeutjens and Tentacle Master credit for helping with the answer since they both helped me to correct the scripting.

pjgeutjens is correct,
your use of GOTO commands are incorrect. it should be GOTO Win7 not GOTO :Win7.
Also,
if "%programfiles(x86)%"=="%programfiles(x86)%" goto 32BIT is an incorrect method to check for architecture, it will always be true.
Instead use IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"=="x86" GOTO 32BIT

Thanks for architecture variable, I couldn't find it. My original script had the line read if "%programfiles(x86)%XXX"=="XXX" goto 32BIT, but I changed it to what you said. I also corrected GOTO commands. However, it still stops running after the services are restarted and works fine if ran locally instead of being pushed. - jcantello 12 years ago

2 remarks:
I dunno if you copy/pasted the script, but your use of GOTO is inconsistent. You sometimes use the colon in the goto command, which I don't think is the way it should be.
So not GOTO :Win7 but GOTO Win7
Second, I'm pretty sure your condition if "%programfiles(x86)%"=="%programfiles(x86)%" is not as it should be... this will always evaluate true if I'm not mistaken. I think it should be if "%programfiles(x86)%"==""

I haven't used this in a while, but it worked on both Windows 7 and XP (both 32-bit), with the 5.0 and 5.1 KBOX agents. I copied this line from the raw XML editor:

Well, shoot, the line won't paste unless I remove some delimiters:
