Running Batch Files using ASP .NET

Hi all,

I want to create an app that runs a batch file which inturn runs
applications.

question:
if I start the batch file from app1, how can app1 know that the batch file
ran successfully and there was no errors.. (is there a return type)
we run a lot of sql jobs using batch files, so we want to create a user
interface to run batch files

Please advice,
Stephen

Stephen,

To start a batch you need to use System.Diagnost ics.Process class. It has a
special property ExitCode for communicating return value.

Hi! Any help on this would be appreciated... In an HTML document that lists instructions on installing some software, there's a point where a DOS batch file needs to be run in order to copy files from the CD to the hard drive. Given that CD drives can have various names, I wanted to run the batch file using relative paths. The problem is, the DOS window that opens to run the batch file can leave the command prompt at any location . So...

I don't care if they see data from the transaction before it is done and am only using the transaction because I need a way to roll it back if any errors happen during the transaction.

I have a batch file named GetConf.bat. It contains a line like this: ipconfig /all >c:\MyAppDir\IPdata.txt I believe I could run the line with something like ShellWait by Terry Kreft. Any reason I should run the procedure via a batch file call as opposed to launching the command string directly?

Try this script to see what queries are taking over a second. To get some real output, you need a long-running query. Here's one (estimated to take over an hour): PRINT GETDATE() select count_big(*) from sys.objects s1, sys.objects s2, sys.objects s3, sys.objects s4, sys.objects s5 PRINT GETDATE()

Hi. I have a number of batch jobs that are ran nightly on our Windows 2000 based Oracle 8.1.7 (soon to be 9i) server. I have these designed just right, so the Windows Scheduled Tasks runs them and then a parser goes through the output and, in case of errors, sends me a page... The database is our financial system which requires users to login using Oracle based user ID / Password.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
