All your examples fail to execute your program. The second argument is the program being executed, not only the directory. Should be the same as the first element of `args`. And the individual arguments should be separated. os.spawnv(os.P_WAIT, '$JAVA_HOME/bin/java', ['$JAVA_HOME/bin/java', 'ex3178', 'true']) In this case it's easier to use spawnl: os.spawnl(os.P_WAIT, '$JAVA_HOME/bin/java', 'java', 'ex3178', 'true') -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
