I'm having trouble with UI++ passing the OSDComputerName variable to the task sequence. Right now, I'm prompting for the end user to fill in the Computer Name inside of WinPE. With Ctrl+F2, I can see that my variable is being populated with the value entered, but the OSDComputerName variable is being set to 0 (zero). Here's my code for the prompt and then to set OSDComputerName: <Action Type="Input" Name="MyComputerName" Title="ComputerName"> <TextInput Prompt="ComputerName" Hint="Must match Asset Tag affixed to this machine" Question="Please enter the Computer Name" Variable="MyComputerName"/> </Action> <Action Type="TSVar" Name="OSDComputerName">%MyComputerName%</Action> Any idea why this might be happening? Am I missing something here? |

Try wrapping %MyComputerName% in double-quotes maybe?
Why not just set OSDComputerName directly?

Alternatively, set the DontEval attribute to True on your TSVar action. If your computer name contains a character that could be used in an arithmetic operation, like a minus sign (-), then the VBScript expression evaluator will try to evaluate it. Eclosing the value in quotes or setting the DOntEvel attribute will prevent this.

Did you ever get this working, evantkraus6? I am seeing the same issue. After imaging has completed, my machines are named "MININT...". Our computer naming standard does not have any dashes and are alphanumeric. Here is a snippet of my code:
<Action Type="Input" Name="Computer Name" Title="Computer Details" ShowBack="True">
<TextInput Prompt="Computer Name" Question="Please enter a computer name." Variable="ComputerName" />
<TextInput Prompt="Asset Tag" Hint="The asset tag entered must be 6 or less characters." Question="Please enter an asset tag." RegEx=".{1,6}" Variable="OSDAssetTag" />
</Action>
<Action Type="TSVar" Name="OSDComputerName">"%ComputerName%"</Action>

Update: I have been able to get the name to pass to the task sequence by creating a TSvar and adding a task to the task sequence to specify the variable. Also, I forgot to mention that I am using UI++ as a prestart in the boot image. My config: snipboard.io/aDBCw5.jpg |
