Hi Patrick,

I forgot to mention that we currently use the old RUNRMTCMD to execute the batch file on the Windows server and it runs without a problem.

Thank you for your suggestion.  I'll start thinking about how to accomplish that.

Regards,
Bobby

Does it sound reasonable that the window is the problem?
Maybe?

Did this ever work before?

As I understand, the i has a wrkscde which somehow *sends* a File to a Windows machine, and then uses ssh to start an application handling that file. Correct?

If the vendor refuses to make the program run "quietly" in a text-only environment, the only option you have is to reimplement the program start by local means on the Windows machine. I'm no Windows guy, but that's how I'd try it:

- Run the upload as already working,
- Upload/create a zero byte file on the windows machine as "you may run now" flag.

The Windows machine "constantly" runs a program which looks if the flag file exists. If yes, create a lock file (just a flag again, to prevent the process from running twice), and delete the run file. Now run the "misbehaving" program locally, check return value after finishing, and delete the lock file.

Add some "spicing" (error handling, helpful messages put into a log file for debugging purposes, etc).

:wq! PoC
