Can't make Random Campaigns!

[Narko]

So...I'm in a trouble.
It seems I can't generate random campaign, I always get an error!

I have latest NET.Framework 4 and Internet Explorer 9. Running Windows 7 64bit.

Also files like PzCRCg are opened by Microsoft HTML Application.

What should I do?

Narko,

ca you generate a random battle? Let's make sure that works then we can see if we can try to duplicate your problem.

Thanks

[Narko]

Yes, I can generate random battle without any problems.

[rickier65]

When you create the random battle you're going through the Game menu, selecting Campaign, then Random.

Then from the Random Campaign Screen you chose Build Campaign?

Does the Prgress bar start to fill in?

Thanks
Rick

[Narko]

Nop, It just shows script error when I press Build Campaign.

Also, Try running the game as the administrator. The line that is generating the erro is calling a "objWMIService.ExecQuery". Perhaps there is a permission issue, though I've not seen that problem before.

Thanks

You mean like this or?

[junk2drive]

This is the program in your PCO folder that you need to check

PzCRCg.hta

[Narko]

It seems I can't.

I'm on XP so I can't help much.

It seems I can't.

What Language setting is you computer on?

the complete line that is failing is:

var colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = 'mshta.exe'");

Perhaps there is some issue with how the Select is being implemented?

I'll do some more looking.

Thanks

Can you log to your computer as Administrator and then run PCO?

Thanks

OK. It probably isn't a permission issue then. I'll try a few things here and get back to you.

Thanks

I've tried a few things narko, but nothing I've tried seems to help your problem.

The line that is causing your problem is:

var colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = 'mshta.exe'");

for some reason it doesn't seem to want to run the objWMIService.ExecQuery, but i dont know why.

Sorry i wasn't able to help, perhaps someone else has some ideas to try.

thanks

Sveiks Narko,

Did you experience this issue only after installing the new update or did you have this problem before that as well?

Regards,

Hi!

After update, haven't tried in older version.

Hi!

After update, haven't tried in older version.

to followup on Eriks question. I'm attaching a copy of the Random Campaign generator before the update. You can see it it runs.

mshta.exe is an executable used by Explorer to run hta files and is installed by default on windows. It should be located at C:\WINDOWS\System32\mshta.exe for a normal install. There have been some instances of this exe being infected with a virus so you may want to run an up to date virus checker and see what it finds.

Take a look at http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic363517.html for an example of an infection. This may not be the source of the issue your facing but as mshta.exe is seperate from anything Matrix installs it would be good to check it out.

Scanned with Kaspersky, no viruse found.

Still an error!

Thanks for the help guys!
