Executing Compiled Jar File From .NET (System.Diagnostics.Process)?

Feb 8, 2011

Trying to integrate the google closure compiler in a batch job of mine and having difficulty getting it to work.Using command prompt I can enter the following command and get my scripts compiled. (The command is a self explanatory example)

java -jar "compiler.jar" --js_output_file="myOutput.min.js" --js="input1.js" --js="input2.js"

I have tried to replicate this using the System.Diagnostics.Process object but thus far have failed.I have tried

Dim command As String = BuildCommand(CompilationScripts, Me._Output)
Dim process As New Process
process.Start("compiler.jar", command)

And I have tried

Dim command As String = BuildCommand(CompilationScripts, Me._Output)
Dim process As New Process
process.StartInfo.Arguments = command

System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses?

Jul 18, 2009

I am fairly new to VB.NET (but have vast professional experience with several other languages) and am completely new to these forums (so please don't burn me if I posted in the wrong place). I have run into a rather odd quirk with System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses. I have a sample application (source posted below) that checks all running processes every second for changes (created and destroyed) and tells the user what has changed, if anything, in the last second. The sample runs for anywhere between 29-72 seconds before issuing an array out of bounds error. It appears that the Windows system processes, SearchProtocolHost.exe and SearchFilterHost.exe explicitly, disappear from the list causing my application to throw the aforementioned exception. Specifically the exception I am receiving is as follows:

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.I have noted in comments where the exception is thrown in the code below. If any of you would be willing to try this sample on your PC's or could suggest potential issues with my sample that could cause this problem

My sample code:
Imports System
Imports System.Diagnostics

Working With System.Diagnostics.Process?

Dec 22, 2010

I am tring to build network toolkit for my very computer illiterate techs. What I am trying to accomplish is to embed a command prompt of sorts in a form. I have been sucessful to a point. Here are my main two problems.

1: I cannot read line by line as the output of the process is generated. Rrather I have to wait untill its complete, this is ok for "IPConfig and Maybe "Ping". But for longer diag tests this would take too long and it would look like the app has crashed. So I need to figure out how to redirect the output of the process to my text control.

2: I would like to have the ability to redirect keyboard input to the process. For telnet as an example. I would capture all keyboard commands while my text control has focus and send them to the process and with the problem solved I should be able to establish 2-way IO with the process. Is there a way to do this or am I barking up the wrong tree.

Dynamic System.Diagnostics.Process.Start?

Jul 6, 2009

I'm having a problem. I have researched this for over a week and have not found what I need. I find a lot of great suggestions but none of them work for me.My code and program works 100% if you put a valid program, process or file name in the box but if you don't, it crashes. Also if the program is not registered or in a known path it will crash.

I've tried My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(txtProcessName.Text) and System.IO.File.Exists(txtProcessName.Text)

But every variation I try thinks that none of the files exist.I don't want to hard code any of the paths or file names because I want this to be dynamic. I also want it to be a one file program. I know eventually I will need to get into multiple files but I like basing all my programs on a file that can be copied and pasted to any computer and ran without problems.

NOTE: This is a multi-function program. Not only does it start programs but it also terminates them, looks the process up on the web to see if it's spyware, adware or a valid program and it also is a Task manager.

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start When File Is Not Associated?

Nov 30, 2009

I'm using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start to open a file using a string stored in a SQL datatable. It works absolutely fine as long as there is an application on the local machine associated with the file type. If there isn't an association, what happens is the "Save as" dialog box pops up. What I'd like to happen is to just bring up a message box or some other prompt that tells the user what the problem is, and to contact the helpdesk. Some users will be confused if they see a "Save as" dialog box, I think.

Opening Multiple Instances Of Program When Clicking System.Diagnostics.Process

Mar 28, 2012

I have an windows application (created using visual studio 2005) and it also is using an autocad .api. The user runs Autocad and the user enters various commands that will open forms. One of these forms, contains Windows.Forms.LinkLabels with paths to the autocad drawing files they've attatched (.dwg). When they click on the link, I need the file to open in the existing Autocad they already have open; however, the problem is that it's opening a new instance of Autocad and placing the file into it. How can I make it so it opens in the existing Autocad program already open? [Code]

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start Won't Work In Startup When Supplied User Account

Jan 31, 2011

I have a vb.net 2008 application that is supposed to run at startup. After meeting certain conditions, the PC is supposed to restart. Below is the code that is failing:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("shutdown", "-r -t 00 -f", myUsername, myPassword, myDomain)

myUsername and myDomain are both strings while myPassword is a SecureString. The application works properly when execute manually, but give the following error when executed from startup (either by placing in the startup folder or by adding to the registry):

The directory name is invalid

Also, the program executes properly when the last 3 arguments are left out and the user has the necessary rights.

How do I force a restart using an specific, alternate user credentials on startup?

VS 2005 Windows Services - Process Is Listed As A SYSTEM Process Rather Than A Process Under User Name

Jun 4, 2009

I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

Use Diagnostics.process.kill In With Devices?

If I have two apps which I have written with vb 2008 for windows 6 device lets say app1 and app2. App1 is running but then needs to start app2 - then app2 needs to shut down app1 and do some updating of app1 then app2 needs to restart app1 and app2 then needs to be shutdown. I am aware of the systemdiagnostics.process classes. One thing I don't understand is how to shutdown app1 from app2 how would get that processid of app1 due to the fact that you havn't access to getproccessbyname methods.

C# - Kill Process Started With System.Diagnostic.Process.Start("FileName")

Oct 2, 2010

I am trying to create an app that will perform actions on specific times (much like the Windows Task Scheduler). I am currently using Process.Start() to lunch the file (or exe) required by the task. I am initiating a process by calling a file (an .mp3) and the process starts WMP (since it is the default application), so far so good. Now I wan't to kill that process. I know that it is normal behavior for the Process.Start(string, string) to return nothing (null in C#) in this case. So I am asking how can i close WMP when I called it through Process.Start(string, string)??

Identify A Process That Is Executing But Has An Error?

We have several programs that run during off hours and I want to write a program to monitor them. I have defined a list of priority programs and have written code to verify that they are running using 'Dim instance As Process'. The problem is that I can't figure out how to determine if the program has a pop-up error window like "unhandled exception" or similar window. The instance.responding still shows 'true'. How can I identify a process that is executing but has an error?

Connect To Remote Computer And Display The Status Of Process Running On Remote Computer?

Dec 27, 2009

I'm trying to develop a windows application where i can get connected to remote server and look for process state going in remote server.We have many remote servers where automatic installation of software going on. We have an xml file(installstatus.xml) where it tells us at what stage the installation is (Example : Inprogress , Completed, Failed.)

So our aim is to develop a windows application where i can get connected to that servers and look for their installation status(may be we can use installstatus.xml to look for installation status). Every time i connect to a server, the server information should get stored in XML file(i want to create a xml file where all the servers list i connect to should get stored)

The UI at left side should will have list of servers i can connect to. When i get connected to server, at right side of UI, i want to display the status of installation (In progress, failed , completed).

I am writing a program that looks for a particular exe running on the stations on the same workgroup, if it finds it then it will kill it. I know how to look for running processes on the local pc but can not figure out how to do it on a remote pc. I am able shell("TASKKILL /S computername /F /IM exe") which works, however I do not have error logging. If there is an error the application just hangs.

WMI Remote Process To Copy File?

Dec 9, 2010

copy a file to a remote target where UNC connections TO the target might not be possible.However UNC connections FROM the target and BACK to the server will always be possible. So the plan was to use WMI to start a remote command shell (cmd) and use the copy command to grab the file. But this doesn't work. The following command works fine when executed manually from the command line of the target:

[2005] Remote Process Execution Using WMI

I would like to do the same thing in .net using WMI, and I tried to do this on my own, but my code is not working properly. If I specify my logon credentials, the process will execute on the remote machine and the code works fine, but I want the program to send the WMI query by using impersonation. I believed this was supposed to send the user credentials of the user using the program to the remote WMI provider on the remote machine. Here is the code I am using:

.net - Create Remote Process Via WMI And Wait For It To Exit?

Jan 18, 2012

I'm using System.Management to start a process on a remote target via WMI like this:

InputParameters("CommandLine") = "executable here"
OutputParameters = ManagementClass.InvokeMethod("Create", InputParameters, Nothing)

This kicks off the process and my code continues to run, but I need a way of monitoring that process and not doing anything else until it finishes. Is there a simple solution? I'm hoping there's something similar to Process.WaitForExit like there is when creating a local process.
