Run on Windows7

[BMP]

I have write a litte Programm:

$ProgrammPath=RegRead( "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EasySetup\{2E1C262F-B7FC-4046-B1F8-F49648BFC10E}", "InstallDir")
DirCreate($ProgrammPath&"\Daten\SpielstandALT\")
FileCopy($ProgrammPath&"\Daten\Spielstand\*.*", $ProgrammPath&"\Daten\SpielstandALT\*.*", 9)
Run($ProgrammPath&"\esIUpdater.exe")

The Copy works very well. But the Run doesent start the esIUpdater.exe.

Scite shows no error, the Programm will not run in the Background.

I have no Idea why ??

Does this program require the Workdir to be set to the ProgramDir?

The work and ProgrammDir are the same...

[Jos]

Not in your script you shown.....

The Workdir will be the directory where the script is located.

I have save it in C:\Programms\KoFuMa\

The RegKey shows on C:\Programms\KoFuMa\

If i say:

Run(".\esIUpdater.exe")

it is the same, no error but the EXE will not start.

If i Start it whit hand it will ask for Admin rights, can this be a hind ?

Try:

Run($ProgrammPath&"\esIUpdater.exe",$ProgrammPath)

Its the same. The EXE will not Start.....

I have try it whis this:

run("C:\Program Files\KoFuMa\esIUpdater.exe", $ProgrammPath)

But it will not work ;-(

[Jos]

So the content of $ProgrammPath is "C:\Programms\KoFuMa\" ?

If so try:

Run($ProgrammPath&"esIUpdater.exe",$ProgrammPath)

[BMP]

The same...... Not work....

[Jos]

The same...... Not work....

so the answer to the question is?

anyway what is the result of this script when run in SciTE?

$ProgrammPath=RegRead( "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EasySetup\{2E1C262F-B7FC-4046-B1F8-F49648BFC10E}", "InstallDir")
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $ProgrammPath = ' & $ProgrammPath & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console
$rc=DirCreate($ProgrammPath&"\Daten\SpielstandALT\")
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $rc = ' & $rc & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console
$rc=FileCopy($ProgrammPath&"\Daten\Spielstand\*.*", $ProgrammPath&"\Daten\SpielstandALT\*.*", 9)
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $rc = ' & $rc & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console
$pid=Run($ProgrammPath&"\esIUpdater.exe")
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $pid = ' & $pid & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : FileExists($ProgrammPath&"\esIUpdater.exe") = ' & FileExists($ProgrammPath&"\esIUpdater.exe") & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console

the Programm will start after the end of the Script.....

Now you can tell me where are my error ?

[Jos]

If you want the script to wait for the program to finish you need to use ShellExecuteWait().

[BMP]

Thank you....

I now work with "ShellExecuteWait" and all look good.

But i think it must be the same whith RUN ??

[Jos]

But i think it must be the same whith RUN ??

Assume it is an console program which you run from the CMD prompt or open the CMD prompt whem ran from FileExplorer?

Agree Run() should work too but have seen this happening. Probably this works too:

Run(@ComSpec & ' /c "' & $ProgrammPath & 'esIUpdater.exe"',$ProgrammPath)
