IEDoDownload

Post by [email protected] » Fri Jul 13, 2018 7:59 pm

In the following section of code, execution stops at the IEDoDownload line. The download occurs and completes, but execution never proceeds. Any thoughts?

Label>GotIt
Position>timeago">,thisItem,1,pos,FALSE
MidStr>thisItem,{%pos%+9},10,StDate
GetDate>Today
DateDiff>Today,StDate,D,DD
if>DD>1
TimeStamp>%SCRIPT_DIR%\nightly.log,Nightly Snapshot has not completed.
MDL>not complete -- %Today%<>%StDate%
Exit>0
endif
IEClickTag>IE[0],,,A,INDEX,%idx%,ie_res
IEWaitDocumentComplete>%IE[0]%,ie_res
IEDoDownload>https://mysite.com/admin/backups
IENavigate>%IE[0]%,https://mysite.com/logout,IEres
IEWaitDocumentComplete>%IE[0]%,IEres
GetNewestFile>%SCRIPT_dir%,inFile
IEQuit>IE[0],IEres

Which version of Windows and IE is this?

Have you tried just:

Code: Select all

IEDoDownload>mysite.com
Does this simple script work for you:

Code: Select all

IECreate>IE[0]
IENavigate>%IE[0]%,www.clipmagic.com,ie_res
IEWaitDocumentComplete>%IE[0]%,ie_res
IEClickTag>%IE[0]%,{""},{""},{"IMG"},{"INDEX"},{"6"},ie_res
IEDoDownload>clipmagic.com

Yes, the sample code works.
BTW, I created a not so pretty work around.

IEClickTag>IE[0],,,A,INDEX,%idx%,ie_res
IEWaitDocumentComplete>%IE[0]%,ie_res
IEGetAllText>IE[0],2,strText
IEWaitDocumentComplete>%IE[0]%,ie_res
Wait>5
SetFocus>snapshots - Internet Explorer*
wait>3
Press ALT
Send>s
Release ALT
Wait>10
Let>Ext=.partial
Let>wt=1800
While>Ext=.partial
GetNewestFile>%inDirMS%\*.*,inFile
ExtractFileName>inFile,strFileName,1
ExtractFileExt>inFile,Ext
if>Ext=.partial
wait>wt
let>wt=wt/2
endif
EndWhile

Sorry, I did not answer all the questions:
Windows 10 Pro (10.0.17134 Build 17134)
IE 11 (11.112.17134.0)

Glad you have a workaround.

If the sample code is working for you but it's not working for your site that tells me there is something different about what your site is doing. I'd need access to it in order to find out what that is and what we can do about it. Are you able to give me access (privately)? If so can you email support with details.
