Can I ask the two of you, @perrycj and @mm2270 if you have a moment to look at this post of mine? I saw the wonderful info that you have given about Dockutil and wanted to see if you have experienced this issue at all.

Thank you, both in advance for any insight that either or both of you or anyone else may have. I am indebted to everyone here at JAMF for the assistance that you have given.

Have a very great day today!

@skinford This wouldn't be a jamf issue. Dockutil isn't associated with jamf at all. It's its own binary. EDIT: I didn't read your post all the way.To clarify, the dock is set correctly but it's being killed three times first?

LoggedInUserHome="/Users/$LoggedInUser"

exit 0

I reposted your script for readability. Is it returning any errors?

@Asnyder correct, it rewrites the dock from the correct version to a couple of icon apps version back to the correct version.
I realize why it wipes the first time is because of this line, /usr/local/bin/dockutil --remove all "$LoggedInUserHome", but it didn't do that before 10.1.1, it never showed the smaller dock and then the correct dock again.
I will check but as far as I know, I haven't seen any error. I can check logs though.

Thank you, @Asnyder

/usr/local/bin/dockutil --remove all "$LoggedInUserHome" and

killall -KILL Dock

will cause the dock to flash.

configureDefaultDock May as well but I'm not sure on that one.

Would suggest pinging Kyle Crawford via Github:

https://github.com/kcrawford/dockutil

@skinford Were you able to get this going?

@perrycj Morning,

Had to put it on hold for awhile. I have tried editing everything that was suggested but it flashes three times and gets the correct dock with my original script. If I delete anything that was suggested the dock comes up with many question marks so I believe that I have to live with the flash. Wish I knew what changed, right after we ran a Casper update to version 10+ it started doing this. Worked all the way up to 9.100. If my script is off I'd sure like to find out where. I have even put questions on the dockutil GitHub site and no one knows why.

I'll keep digging @perrycj but at this point stuck with the three flashes.

@skinford, I just started using dockutil (and it is great!). I'm experiencing the same thing. My Cloud JSS instance is 10.11.1. Are you having this issue still?
