ASP.NET and Starting Proceses [yet another (hopefully the last) question]

[Serdar C.]

hi again.. i wrote a webservice like this:

[WebMethod]

public void DrawPlot()

{

System.Diagnostics.Process R = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

R.StartInfo.FileName = "plot.vbs";

R.StartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;

R.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;

R.Start();
//R.WaitForExit();

}

which has to run the "plot.vbs" command when the service runs..

but i cant make it run.. i get a "this page cannot be displayed" error when
i run that method. what am i doin wrong? is there something that i need to
add into web.config or something elsE?

thanx for your time and helping..

Hi Serdar:

I believe what you'll need to do is actually execute cscript.exe as
the process, and pass the script file as an argument.
