You should try running this setup.exe without STAF and see if it works (or
gives you an error message). For example:
C:\STAF\data\STAF\tmp\TIAT\Job25\ESE\image>setup.exe /u
"C::\STAF\data\STAF\tmp\TIAT\Job25\Response.rsp" /l
"C:\STAF\data\STAF\tmp\TIAT\Job25_DB2.log"

Subject: Re: [staf-users] Process Start error: CreateProcess failed
with OS RC 216: Invalid working directory
The Windows system error code you are getting is 216. Windows system
error code 216 (as described at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681382%28v=vs.85%29.aspx) means:
ERROR_EXE_MACHINE_TYPE_MISMATCH
216 (0xD8)
The version of %1 is not compatible with the version you're running. Check
your computer's system information to see whether you need a x86 (32-bit)
or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software
publisher.
So, I'm wondering if the setup.exe executable that you are trying to run
is is not compatible with the Windows operating system that is installed.
For example, is the setup.exe in this ESE\image directory a x64 (64-bit)
version of the program, but are you running a x86 (32-bit) version of the
Windows operatiing system of this machine? That would explain why it
works on other Windows machines if they are running 64-bit Windows, for
example.
You can tell what version of the Windows operating system you are running
by checking if an environment variable named PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE exists
and if it doesn't then a x86 (32-bit) version of the Windows operating
system is installed. If this environment variable exists and it's value
is AMD64, then a x64 (64-bit) version of Windows is installed.
As to what version of ESE\setup.exe is installed, you need to check
whatever was used to install that executable.
Also, which STAF installation file did you use to install STAF on this
machine (one for 32-bit Windows or one for 64-bit Windows)? Running this
following command provides this information:
STAF local MISC LIST PROPERTIES
Also, what version of Windows is running on this machine? For example:
Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows XP, Windows Vista, etc. Running
the following command provides this information:
STAF local VAR RESOLVE STRING {STAF/Config/OS/Name}

Although the same STAX job works on other Windows machines.
What can be the cause of the problem?
