i was testing batch files using below script

@echo off
del c:\test\d.txt
c:\PsExec.exe \\server -u domain\username -p password netstat -n |find /c "IP/PORT" > c:\test\d.txt
for /F %%i in (c:\test\d.txt) do set myRESULT=%%i
echo RESULT IS  %myRESULT%
if %myRESULT%==0 (echo ":Server is Not Connected") 
REM Set PRTG Sensor to Warning by returning <1>
Exit 1
else (echo ":Server is Connected")

if i run script normally i get proper output in txt file.

but if i use this batch scripts using PRTG EXE/Script sensor the output in txt file changed to 0 (output should be 1 or higher if server is connected)

need help...

Hello there,

Please try this:

  • In the device you added sensor to, try setting admin credentials in the device's "Settings" (section "Windows Credentials").
  • In the EXE/Script sensor's settings configure it to "Use Windows credentials of parent device".

Does it work then?

Kind regards,

Erhard

Hi Erhard Thanks for your help..

now its showing as

Response not wellformed: "(Connecting to server... Starting PSEXESVC service on server... Connecting with PsExec service on server... Starting netstat on server... netstat exited on server with error code 0. )" (code: PE132)

@echo off
del c:\test\d.txt
c:\PsExec.exe \\server -u username -p password netstat -n |find /c "IP" > c:\test\d.txt
for /F %%i in (c:\test\d.txt) do set myRESULT=%%i

if %myRESULT%==0 echo %myRESULT%:Server is Not Connected 

REM Set PRTG Sensor to Warning by returning <1>
Exit 1

else echo %myRESULT%:Server FIX Connected

thanks in advance.
