Run command files (VBScript) before data capture during recovery point creation

[CESoft]

Hi,
I've a VBScript that I'd like to run before data capture. I've follow the instructions on the user manual:

To use a Visual Basic script file (.VBS) during a recovery point, you can create a batch file (.BAT) that will run the script.
For example, you could create a batch file called STOP.BAT that contains the following syntax:
Cscript script_filename.vbs
Make sure that Cscript precedes the Visual Basic script filename.

Bat doing that I get this error:

Description: Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Recovery point of C:\. Error EC8F0401: External command "C:\BESR\script.bat" returned an error. Error E0BB009C: Incorrect function.

So, following this suggestion (http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/294095.htm) I've tried to add "echo done" as second line in the script.bat file. As result no error are raised, but the vbs script will not execute.
I've also tried with a really simple vbs script, just one line of code, but without success.
I'm using BESR 8.5.7 and Windows XP SP3.

Has anyone encountered and solved this issue?
Thanks!
Emanuele.

Just add the following as the last line of the script:
exit 0

Thanks for your suggestion,
but adding "exit 0" the vbs will not execute same as adding "echo done".
My commandFile (script.cmd) is:
 

CScript script.vbs
exit 0

And all files are in the same directory. If I call script.cmd from the command prompt all work fine!

Ok, I've got the solution.
With the objective to write a log file of the vbscript, I call the vbscript from the batch file like you can see below and this work fine!
 

cscript //nologo script.vbs 1>>c:\Log.txt 2>>&1

I don't know exactly why, but it's work!
Thanks.
Emanuele.

Hm, strange. We've had a similar problem caused by a statement that not exited with code 0 that caused the before data capture script not to end with error code 0 and this caused BESR to think the command failed.
