Problem launching a bat file via LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS

[David Rose]

This is a re-post of a message I posted on the NUG several months ago, but 
didn't get a response with a solution.


I have a bat file that I need to run programmatically from 4D v15 on a 
Windows 7 computer.


The bat file runs fine when I manually double-click on it. When run via the 
4D code below, the console window appears for a second, then closes. On one 
computer the bat file executes with the expected results, on another, it 
doesn't.


SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_BLOCKING_EXTERNAL_PROCESS";"false")
SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_CURRENT_DIRECTORY";"mybatfilefolder")
SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_HIDE_CONSOLE";SW_SHOW)
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS("c:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe /C mybatfile.bat"

The cmd.exe application file is set to always run as administrator.

Any idea why this is working on one computer but not another?

TIA,
David Rose

Re: eventpost , in process name, what is it?

A process name is what you gave to it, so I don't understand the question. 
How and when do you get that "$eventpost"? 


> is there a grace period for when process ids wont be reused,

As long as you don't end a process you created, it will not be re used. 
(ending a process = end of the process method)


> or are they available immediately in 4D?

No, there is a delay between New process and the ability to "talk to" the 
created process.

RE: Not compiling: Tech Tip: Find and fix all Blank or Null UUID fields in an entire database - solved

[Dennis, Neil]

I don't think this is what you are looking for... the function "Is field value 
Null" returns a Boolean, so comparing the Boolean from the function against the 
$field-> will not give you the correct results.

Try this instead:

QUERY BY FORMULA($table->;(($field->="") | \
($field->="20202020202020202020202020202020") | \
($field->="") | \
Is field value Null($field->)))

Yes, seems fine. It was mentioned in my link to stack overflow discussion too.

Cannot connect 4D client v15R5 64-bit with 4D Server v15R5 64-bit

[Akram Hamed]

Hi,
I upgraded an application from 4D v13 to 4D v15R5.
I have 13 users under Windows 10 64-bit.

When I used the 4D Server v15R5 32-bit with 4D clients v15R5 32-bit, everything 
went very well.
But when I used the 4D Server v15R5 64-bit with 4D clients v15R5 64-bit, I got 
the following error:
-10002.

I changed the computers with Windows 7 64-bit configuration, but still the same 
error.

Any help.

Regards
