Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Bundles

Situation

ZCM adds a space before and after the separator character when editing an INI file, so that "value=1" is written to the INI file as "value = 1" -  some programs cannot cope with the extra space.

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.1.2 - see KB 7001914 "ZENworks 10 Configuration Management 10.1.2" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support


WORKAROUND:
add an extra action, Edit Text File, after the Edit INI file action, and in there replace all " = " (without the quotes) with"=" (without the quotes)
