Well, I finally figured it out. Use Absolute Paths EVERYWHERE with <cfexecute>.
For future reference: The file that is being referenced must also contain absolute paths. I don't know why I didn't think of that before. I am actually now calling a BAT file with <cfexecute> that runs the executable and feeds it the argument: <cfexecute name="d:\webserver\client\engine\app.bat"> </cfexecute> BAT file contents:: d:\webserver\client\engine\app.exe -run d:\webserver\client\engine\client_file.lis All file references within "client_file.lis" must also be absolute paths (which was my problem all along). Thanks to everyone who helped out!
