trying to run executable on server

[Kevin O'Brien]

Hey guys,

I am trying to run an exe on the server with the following line and it is
not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Kevin

Dim myProcess As Diagnostics.Process =
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("d:\bin\discover.exe -r server01 -7
wxpmis01 -v 9")

The process.Start created a process under the asp.net account. Does
your account has rights to execute it?

Does the aspnet account just needs read and execute rights to the folder?

Thank you,
Kevin

I think this should be enough...

Why do you think the process is not working? You don't see an output,
or it doesn't make any result?

I see, you have an arguments in the string

try to call it using as follows (I don't know if it makes any
difference)

Process.Start("d:\bin\discover.exe",
"-r server01 -7 wxpmis01 -v 9");
