What is the STAFResult value after the <process> is run?  It will contain 
an error message that may provide more information about what the problem 
is (e.g. a file or directory it can't find or create).

What is the command that you use to run the python script on the specified 
machine without STAF via the command line.  The same command should work 
when run via a STAF PROCESS START request or via a <process> element in a 
STAX job assuming the environment from the command line is the same as the 
environment that STAFProc is running in on the specified machine.  By 
environment, I mean things like the environment variable settings and the 
current user.  You can check the environment variables that STAFProc is 
running with by submitting a "STAF machine VAR LIST" request and looking 
at the values of the STAF/Env/xxx variables.  You may also want to log the 
value of the cmd variable in your STAX job to make sure it contains what 
you want it to.

Subject:        [staf-users] Running a Python script on the remote machine



Hi,
 
I have the following code to run a python script on the specified machine:
 
<script>cmd='python.exe %s\\DeleteOldSnapshots.py %s'  % (tempDir_PS, 
VMIMAGE)</script>
<process name = "'Delete old snapshots'">
                                <location>machine</location>
                                <command>cmd </command>
                                <stdout 
mode="'append'">'D:\\Cindy.out'</stdout>
                                <stderr 
mode="'append'">'D:\\Cindy.err'</stderr>
                                <console use ="'new'"/>
</process>
 
I got this: “the process failed to start, RC 10….”
 
Can you please tell me how to run a python script on the specified 
machine?
 
Thanks,
 
Cindy
