Process.Start To Start An External Command Line Application

Aug 4, 2009

I'm using Process.Start to start an external command line application and using the StartInfo.Arguments method to send parameters to the application. I imagine I'll need to use a loop... but I can't figure out exactly how yet.I need to send anywhere from 1 - an infinite number of files names to this application. Each file has to be sent one after the other. So once the first one is done, I need to loop back around and past the second one.I can probably use the Directory.GetFiles method to get all of the files, but I don't know how to assign them.

VS 2010 Unable To Start Specific Command With Process.start

Jun 18, 2011

Here's what I currently have:

[Code]...

I've commented out various things to limit it to specifically this command (example, I can swap mklink out with notepad and it works fine). The command runs fine from a DOS window, but can't be found when I use it this way. I also tried using the SHELL command just to test and I get the same results. No idea why it can't be found, as like I said it executes from the command prompt just fine.

C# - Detect If Application Start Using A Manual Handling (Pressing An Icon) Or Start When Windows Start?

Feb 28, 2011

I have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?

VS 2008 - Process.Start AT Command - Return ID

Jul 25, 2010

I want to add a scheduled task like this: Dim myProc As Process myProc = Process.Start("at", "02:00 /every:T,W,Th,F,Sa c:ackup.bat") When I type that command at a command prompt it returns "Added a new job with ID = x". How do I get this ID in my code, as it's needed if I want to delete the scheduled job? I've tried looking at some of the properties of myProc but haven't found the right one yet. Maybe I need to wait until the process has completed? (If so, how will I know?).

Process.Start - Set Start In Directory?

Feb 8, 2012

I am writing an application that in the end needs to execute another executable at some point, the problem is that the executable has dependencies in the directory it runs in that are required to operate. When I use the Process.Start to run the executable it errors out because it's looking for the dependencies in my applications directory.

I tried the startInfo.WorkingDirectory option but that didn't seem to do it either (not sure if I did it right) - here is how I used that:

Process.Start("my.exe").StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "C:Test"For the life of me I cannot find how to set the "Start In" directory. I looked everywhere, so unless it's under a different name, I'm at a loss.

Asp.net - Architect A .net Web Application To Kick Start Independent Process?

Feb 23, 2011

Can somebody form an idea on how to architect a web application which will kick start an independent process in the server which can perform data uploading function from flat file to Oracle table. This independent process should keep running until it finishes its job regardless of the web application's sign out or timeout issues. The client is a .aspx page which uploads the data file to server and then triggers the independent process in the server.I want to implement this in ASP.NET, VB.NET, VS 2003.

Start A Regular (not Privileged) Process From A RequiereAdministrator Application?

Jan 23, 2011

I'm writing an application that runs with the RequiereAdministrator flag enabled, but this application needs to launch some processes with the regular user privileges. Processes are "inheriting" the privileges from its creator, but they should have the regular user permission. I mean, they should revert back to the "asInvoker" flag, without it being overriden by the 'parent' process.

Using Process.Start Method To Launch Another Application From Application?

Feb 27, 2010

I'm using Process.Start method to launch another application from my application. Until today, there was no problem. But I have tested my application in a different OS, Windows XP (SP3), and my application didn't work right on that. I'm also using arguments to run that application. I guess for some reason my application couldn't send arguments to other application correctly under Windows XP. Maybe it is related to my code. But you should know, it works great on Windows 7.

Window Service Does Not Start All Process On Window Start?

Aug 1, 2011

We create a window service that will launch multiple process of an application with different configuration. And application further communicate with sql server. It works fine when we start service manually from service manager. It launch all the process ( try with launching 3 process ). But when we test it by restart the machine and service launch automatically then it launch only one process third one. I check the event log in event viewer. I see the following message by MSSQL$MSSQLEXPRESS service

Login failed for user 'dduser'. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database. [CLIENT: <local machine>]

one thing we also tried by delaying ( with thread sleep ) the code execution of service. Then by starting machine again , it launch 2 process , first one still not launch.

OSK Process Start/stop - PID.Kill() Fails Because It Says The Process Already Exited

My app starts an On-Screen Keyboard process like this:

Dim PID as System.Diagnostics.Process
:
PID = Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32osk.exe")
:

[CODE]...

It seems to work 90% of the time. However, sometimes the PID.Kill() fails because it says the process already exited. At this point the OSK is always still there on screen. Yes, I know my code should be testing to see if the process is still running before trying to kill it, but given that the OSK is still on screen..

Process.start() Freezes Main Program Until Process Finishes?

Feb 21, 2011

I have a program that starts another program after setting the regkeys basically the program continually syncs the calandar of outlook and another application.I set the regkeys than launch the c:sync.exe app. I have tried a simple process.start and launching the process as a thread and they both do the same thing: The other process starts and works as it should but my main program goes "White screen" or "not responding" until the process.start has exited.

I want the process.start to run in the background so if users click in my main app it responds and truly that they can access the context menu of my main app from the taskbar while the process.start is running.

Detecting When An External Program Ends To Start A New Event?

Apr 17, 2009

I need to be able to detect when an external program closes so that I can start another event within VB 2005. I have tried to do this by monitoring the processes on my computer. The problem is that this programs comes up as some weird sub-process. It has an Image Name, which is indented from the other Image Names, and it shows that the User Name is the Administrator. This is the only information you can get from the Processes tab. There is a Task Name under the Applications tab, however. I was wondering if there was some code to monitor the Applications tab instead of the Processes or if there is yet another way to do this.
