I don't know why the following command isn't working on your Windows XP machine C:\>staf local process start command "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe"
since it works find on my Windows XP machines as follows: C:\>STAF local PROCESS START COMMAND "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" Response -------- 875 Use one of the workarounds that I suggested instead. -------------------------------------------------------------- Sharon Lucas IBM Austin, luc...@us.ibm.com (512) 286-7313 or Tieline 363-7313 yamini sardana <sardana.yam...@gmail.com> 06/29/2009 11:03 AM To Sharon Lucas/Austin/i...@ibmus cc Subject Re: [staf-users] Error starting process Hi Sharon, Thanks for the response. I am using Windows XP (Version 2002, SP 3). The installer gets launched when I encapsulate the command in double quotes: C:\>staf local process start command "\"C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe\"" Response -------- 159 Also, when I use the shell command it works fine: C:\>staf local process start shell command "afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" workdir "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer" Response -------- 161 But I am still not clear why is it causing a problem with C:\>staf local process start command "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" Regards, Yamini Sardana On Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 4:42 PM, Sharon Lucas <luc...@us.ibm.com> wrote: Running your PROCESS START command works fine for me (where I simply copied another executable to afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe in the same directory structure that you used). For example: C:\>STAF local PROCESS START COMMAND "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" Response -------- 242 So, I'm not sure why it isn't working on your Windows machine. What Windows operating system are you using? Try encapulating the executable within double quotes within the command as follows. Does that work on your machine? C:\>STAF local PROCESS START COMMAND "\"C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe\"" Response -------- 244 If that still doesn't work, try starting the command using the SHELL option and specifying the WORKDIR option as follows: C:\>STAF local PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" WORKDIR "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer" Response -------- 250 -------------------------------------------------------------- Sharon Lucas IBM Austin, luc...@us.ibm.com (512) 286-7313 or Tieline 363-7313 yamini sardana <sardana.yam...@gmail.com> 06/29/2009 10:11 AM To staf-users@lists.sourceforge.net cc Subject [staf-users] Error starting process On the command prompt I am issuing a start process command which gives me the below mentioned error: C:\>staf local process start command "C:\Testing\Bluetooth Test\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" Error submitting request, RC: 10 Additional info --------------- Error starting the process. CreateProcess failed with OS RC 193 If I remove the blank space between "Bluetooth Test" to make it to C:\>staf local process start command "C:\Testing\BluetoothTest\Bluetooth Installer\afBluetooth_v1_0_1_Setup.exe" the process starts successfully and the installer is launched. I have another installer maintained in the similar directory structure which gets executed successfully. C:\>staf local process start command "C:\Testing\GSM Test\GSM Installer\afGSM_v2_3_1_Setup.exe" Can somebody please let me know am I missing something here or what is it that is causing the problem.
