I just took a look at the GUI Runner for the first time today. I expected to be able to set user and project variables via the GUI. It looks that isn't possible. So...
1) Did I overlook that functionality?
2) I don't see anything that leads me to believe that there is a "preferred" way to get values to those variables. What do most people use? INI files?
Automise Runner is really just designed to allow a user to run a pre-defined script. I guess if you need to set different variables for different users you could load them from an ini file, or you can prompt for variables.
I have finally gotten around to trying to get one of my Automise 4 projects to run on a different computer using the GUI runtime. I am able to load the project, but none of the action steps are loaded. I just get a bunch of errors. A long list of the same error:
[code]WARNING : An unknown custom action package is not loaded and is referenced by this project.(For a more informative error message, enable at least one .pkg action package under Tools -> Package Manager and restart Automise.) [/code]

I posted a screenshot, but it is not displaying properly. Possibly the forum doesn’t allow PNGs?

Hi Chaim,
This error arises when action packages haven’t loaded which are expected to be present in the Automise directory. I would suggest reinstalling Automise Runner.
Also is this the only Automise product you have on the machine? If not, then I would be expecting the ATCMD and Automise4 to be having the same issues.
I reinstalled the GUI runner and the issue remains.
The GUI runner is the only Automise product on that computer.
This is a fresh VM. Although the install doesn’t complain, do I need to have a particular .NET framework installed?
I installed .NET framework v 4 and that didn’t solve my problem.
Hi Chaim,
I have found the issue and will get a build to you ASAP.
The runner is currently looking at the automise ini file. For a stop gap fix, you can copy the runner ini file to the automise location. This is found in the VSoft directory of the “Program Data” folder on windows 7.
Hi Chaim,
The latest installer of the GUI Runner has solved this issue. Please find it located here.
