Running Sikuli scripts automatically in Windows (trouble getting it to work...)

I had the same problem, and here is the solution: you need to enclose both the bat and script name in separate quotation marks, like this:

"C:\Program Files\Sikuli\Sikuli-IDE.bat" "C:\Program Files\Sikuli\script.skl"

This worked for me in windows server 2003.

then i get the error that he can not find my xxx.py file ^^

I am having the same issue "xxx.py the system cannot find the path specified"

I tried to run command line mode on both Windows XP and Mac OS snow leopard. No luck in both.

On windows I also tried what "ac" mentioned in previous post, but all it does is to generate a tmplib with three dll files. No error message and it does not execute the skl file at all.

It's working for me in Windows 7 - "C:\Program Files\Sikuli\Sikuli-IDE.bat" "C:\Program Files\Sikuli\script.skl"

However, I remember having a problem when I first tried that. I think that I reinstalled Sikuli and know everything is fine.

I got it working based on this post
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/100436

but it does not work for 0.10.1 only for 0.9

will need to figure out how to do the same thing for 0.10.1

hi I want to save a sikuli script and run or execute it I dont know how to do this 0.10.1.

I would really appreciate if naybody could help.

@dnyaneshwari:

you can follow the instruction above if you are using a mac.

you can directly do sikuli-IDE.app *.skl or *.sikuli if you are using windows.

you can also just follow this post. it works for 0.10.1 for me

I just tested it.

If you are stuck, please provide detailed info -- OS, your procedures and error message so that people can help you.

Hi Libo,
thanks a lot I am on windows Xp I saved the script using import executable in File tab, then i right clicked on my executable and said open with the batch file of sikuli and it gave me a error message : runtime error when running C:\ some path
traceback most recent call last :

I cannot wirte the error message its too big :(

But I was wondering if the two lines whicha are mentioned in the above blog should be typed on the command prompt of windows Xp.

I am new to Sikuli so ther is bit difficulty.

I would really appreciate your help.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks

@dnyaneshwari:

you can simply try the above method, on command line mode, do things like this

"C:\Program Files\Sikuli\Sikuli-IDE.bat" "C:\Program Files\Sikuli\script.skl"

@Libo
Hi thanks a lot It worked for me :)

I

If you want automation, you do not even need to use GUI to convert them into
.skl file

you can put it in your script do a simple zip ***.sikuli *.skl, then run
that command to execute it directly. the .skl is only a zip file for the
whole .sikuli folder.

Also I believe the .bat file also takes the .sikuli folder directly by doing

"C:\Program Files\Sikuli\Sikuli-IDE.bat" "C:\Program
Files\Sikuli\script.sikuli"

If you need to run .sikuli using Sikuli-IDE.bat, an extra parameter -r is needed; otherwise the .sikuli will be opened in the IDE.
Use Sikuli-IDE.bat -h to see the details.

Correction on the zip, should be the following:

zip -uj xxx.skl xxx.sikuli/*
