Problems with System.Diagnostics.Process Class

Nov 30 2004 12:51 PM
Greetings. I am trying to use the System.Diagnostics.Process class to perform some actions through the Windows command line. The applicable code appears below. The code builds the command fine, and will open the command line in the proper working directory, but will not send the follow-up command to the command line. The code also catches no errors. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Joe -------------- -- CODE -- -------------- private void deleteButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { try { sysProcess = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); sysProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe"; sysProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true; sysProcess.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Microsoft Shared\\web server extensions\\60\\bin\\"; string strCmdLine; string shortCab; shortCab = cabName.Text.Substring(cabName.Text.LastIndexOf("\\")+1); //Build follow-up command strCmdLine = "stsadm.exe -o deletewppack -name " + shortCab; Debug.Write("strCmdLine = " + strCmdLine); sysProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = strCmdLine; sysProcess.Start(); sysProcess.Close(); } catch (Exception ex) { Debug.Write("Exception: " + ex); } }
