am currently writing a program that uses multiple scripts we use to diagnose software we use in our environment. Currently, the only we retrieve our information is going to the local machine, and running the script locally, and retrieving the output results. The script is an batch file.The goal of the program I am currently creating is to automate the process by specifying which machines need to have the script ran on, generating the script, dispatching it, executing it, and retrieving the output results from the machine the program is ran on...
i have created a batch file and have added it to the project using add items. Basically what i am aiming at is to execute this file on a button click action. I am using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("hello.bat") command to run this file i have changed the build action to resource for this batch file. But when i run this program, it is not able to locate the batch file. I am required to give a relative path as the path my vary from machine to machine. how can i make this file accessable using a relative path?
I am unable to run batch file that is located in mapped network drive using System.Diagnostics.Process in VB.Net. I get:'<batchfilename>.bat' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.Press any key to continue..I get the same error when navigate to the folder (using explorer) that contains this batch file and double click it. I can successfully run the batch file by changing the directory to that folder through command prompt. I can't figure out why this is happening. I think the problem is Start() function of Process works like double click rather than just run the batch file.
I have a VB program that writes a batch file to allow me to run a line of the following format:java <my class file> [options]I then run the batch file using the Shell() routine in VB.When I do this it says it cannot find <my class file>. However if I run the same batch file from a dos prompt it works.why it works in a dos prompt but not in the Shell function?
i am creating an app that when a button is pressed a batch file is executed and hidden from view.I have managed to get the output of the batch file to be displayed in a text box.
I have been looking all day trying to find a way to do this. I need to run a Batch file which is held on a server, the file path begins with a IP Address which DOS doesn't like. So i found the pushd command which assigns a temp drive letter from which you can run the Batch File.If i was simply running a normal program or file i would use:
Dim proc As Process proc = Process.Start("c:\BatchFile.bat") proc.WaitForExit()
Here is my idea so far: I have a bunch of computers connected in a local network. One of them is a MySQL server, one will have a vb.NET program wich will act as a "second server" and the rest will be different clients. What I want to do is that the "second server" will send out some kind of message or network package to some of the clients in the network, and they will execute a code based on what message it is, or what kind of package it is. I'll give you a simple example:
I am trying to create a program that renames files to 1 - (however many files are in the folder) and also convert .pngs to .bmps.
If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then Dim files As String() files = IO.Directory.GetFiles(TextBox1.Text) Dim filepath_new As String filepath_new = TextBox1.Text For Each filepath As String In files [Code] .....
I have an old batch file i use that I would like to convert to vb.net,
The Batch file use a .reg entry to set the cleanmgr options. abnd then calls the sagerun command to run those options
I pretty sure I know how to create the registry entries what I am not sure to do is how to call the cleanmgr with the switches /dc /sagerun:200 then display a box saying it is complete and deleting the prefetch folder of anything older then 'n' days . [code]...
I need Visual Basic to run a batch file I have placed a batch file inside my startup application directory Inside the batch file I have WUinstall /install /reboot "When I double click the batch file it works perfect" Visual Basic 2008 Command Button I Have
Dim p As Process Try 'instance a new process p = New Process
[code]....
When I click this command button all I get is CMD window just flashes. When I hold down the enter key I can faintly read something about it is not an internal command.
I have a batch file that loads into a form containing 20 IT related incidents. I have managed to upload the batch file into a form. However I have an algorithm that reads an incident and manages to classify into its topic: See Below the data imported form the file:
1) Need to install jet direct to printers and connect users 2) Remove ms project software from PC 04384 and re install on 07882 3) install needed for 2 vectra software for Finance department PC assest 9875 and 8711 4) Supply PC 500 SITA Rest Area phone 2268 Asset and S/N 5) Add printer Epson label printer in ISD2 6) Remove Jetdirect and network printer via port PPSS PC add printer 7) Credentials for user UK15428 not logging onto the network 8) Install CD RW and unsupported software for UKX3395 9) Need Entire software installing on asset 5530, and access to password for use. 10) phone handset not functioning for UK10529, new phone required. 11) install card reader and software following PC move 12) New user group UKG0345 no mail just printers on PC00856 and PC02427 13) Update outlook remove project from PC D0186 in Prod Control per Tony Campbell install on Alisons PC in NDS 14) Unable to log onto the network, profile will need recreating 15) Remove spent toner cartridge 16) The printer doesnt appear to be printing, it looks like there could be a paper jam of some sort 17) Set up laptop and use local admin password to gain access to backup files 18) Remove image grabber card from PC and install on PC in paint shop have explained to user they will have to contact optivision
19) Cannot get onto network as I have forgotten my password, can you reset for UK15617 20) User cannot access voicemails, need mac address to edit on TOIP software
For example number 1) would be classified as a printer problem. I want the algorithm to be able to read each number, not the whole lot and classify the whole block of text, I want it to classify each incident individually, so there are 20 incidents to be classified.
I have written a simple folder backup program which, if started with a /s switch (argument), will run "silently" and perform an unattended backup. The obvious way to start the program with the /s switch is from a batch file, which then runs as a Windows Scheduled Task. I would like to create the batch file from the program itself, when it first runs, as it can then write the value of "Application.ExecutablePath" into the batch file follwed by the /s switch.
So, the question is, where best to save the batch file without running into Vista/Windows 7 permission problems? Is the local application data folder suitable?
Bear in mind there are three parts to this: my vb.net app needs first to create a batch file somewhere without permission issues, that batch file needs to be accessible to Windows Task Scheduler and then, when the batch file is run, it needs to start an .exe which is most likely in the "program files" folder.

Im running VB.Net 2005.Inside of the program I use the line ystem.Diagnostics.Process.Start("program_) to open multiple programs. For all but one of them this works perfectly. This erros when I try to run a batch file using. System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:xx.bat") the batch file opens but then throughs a number of unreconizable java errors follow.
I want to replace ALL <firstName) tags to John and all <lastName> tags to Smith to protect sensitive date. In addition, there will be other tags such as address, ss number and phoneNumber.
NOTE: There may be multiple instances of <firstName> within the file. 1000 xml files with all replacing names, address etc. with the same fixed name such as John Smith These will be used for testing and to prevent sensitive data from being leaked
There is no doubt that I can do this the long and dirty way. (I am working on).
My code is calling a COM component to retrieve data from a contact management product. That code works fine when called directly from my VB code. However, if I add a Progress dialog and run the SAME code via the BackgroundWorker, the COM component does not run. It generates an error: Object does not match target type. when attempting to access items from the COM component.
Also, if I run my application via a batch file that simply calls the application, the COM component does not run. In this case, it generates an exception as soon as the COM component is accessed in the code. I have posted questions to the COM component vendor but after several days have not gotten any responses. Someone told me I could not access COM objects on a thead, but the same BackgroundWorker code works when communicating with Outlook or Lotus Notes (which I believe are both COM).
I have an interesting project that i would like to complete. I have a batch file used to ping our locations. Has 1 simple input but i dont understand how to get this to work in visual basic 2010.
I have an application that will execute a batch script. I want to make this hidden, yet if I do so, the user won't be able to overwrite the command the Batch file is issuing as it prompts in the CMD window "Y or N" to overwrite.
I have a batch file which I would like to include in my code. Dose anyone know how to run a batch file within the codefor example:I have the bath file at c: est.batWhen a click a button a want this batch file to run.
I believe this is an encoding issue due to the resulting output. I am trying to make a batch file (meaning .bat) from VB.NET. The output looks fine in a normal text editor, but when executed via the command prompt, it keeps giving me syntax errors to start. I've even tried using CharCodes, but still to no success.
