I am trying to copy a file using provisioning.
Since it is a mixed I wanted to use a DB value.
I called my public variable ALLUSERPRO
Type: Database Value
Replacement Value: "Computer"."Environment"."Variable"."ALLUSERSPROFILE"."Value"
Core Prov log:
XML Snippet to be used:
<variables /><Copy_file><source>\\vmlandeskcore\software\Packages\GDPicture\ScanViewLive.lnk</source><destination>%ALLUSERPRO%\desktop</destination><copySubItem>False</copySubItem></Copy_file>
The file would not copy. If I hard coded the destination path it worked flawlessly. This leads me to belive the variable is returning NULL
Before you reply I did remember I could just use %%ALLUSERSPROFILE%% and get the local variable from the client. I still want to use variables in the future
My questions are:
why was the variable null?
How can I test a public variable ?
