Re: Remedy 9 PROCESS command

2015-08-24 Thread Pospi ARSList
Hi James,

 

You did not mention what OS are the new and old servers running.

It seems they are Windows based, but are they the same version?

I am asking as security may work differently and it may be worth checking under 
what permissions/user is your server process running. 

I.e. is it the local system account or has it been configured to run under a 
“real” domain user that you may be also using for your testing from command 
line?

Is this configured same on old and new machine? Have there been by any chance 
any additional permissions granted on the remote machine to allow the process 
to run and complete successfully from the old server?

 

Hope this will be of some help.

 

Kind regards

Jiri Pospisil

The paexec.exe is being called by both the AL and the Escalation.  It just 
isn't working the same as it does on my 7.5 server.  Paexec creates the remote 
process and the command is run on the remote machine, but it doesn't remove the 
remote process and doesn't return the value.

It works if I run it from a command line and call the exe on the remote server.

I don’t have any v9 servers up right now so I'm not sure what is trying to run.

Hello all, 

A few months ago I posted an issue about running psexec from Remedy and got 
some good help.  I ended up using paexec which is able to get the console 
output from the remote process and return it directly into remedy. 
I am currently on ARS 7.5 and upgrading to ARS 9 and doing some testing on the 
new servers.  What I have is an Active Link doing a set fields $PROCESS$ 
@@:$StatusCommand$ $Test Set Name$ 
I am getting values from fields on the form to use in the Process command.  The 
path to paexec.exe plus parameters and the remote exe name and parameters. 

D:\QCInt\PAExec\paexec.exe \\servername file:///\\servername  -u domain\User 
-p Password C:\User\QCInt\RunTestSet\RunTestSet.exe -ss Demo_Process 

I didn't have to call cmd.exe or comspec or anything special. 

This works fine with my ARS 7.5 system and I get the return value into Remedy. 
On my new ARS 9 system, the remote process is executed, but I do not get the 
return value and the paexec process as well as the remote temporary paexec 
service do not exit. 
When I run the same command from a command line on the new remedy server, it 
works just fine. 
It seems that something has changed in how the $PROCESS$ command works. 

Any ideas? 

Thanks, 
James
