i used following code:
<%
set wshell = server.createobject("WScript.shell")
wshell.run "E:aaa.bat"
set wshell = nothing
response.write("worked")
%>
It does not show any error message and gives the output "worked"
I have installed .dll files for wsscript
Is there any other way to call batch file from aan asp page .
I have a big problem with some part of my code, where I'm using the wscript.shell method to open a file...
I've tried this:
dim shell
set shell= createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.run "C:Clip_CreatorTVSA02.bat"
set shell=nothing
and this
Function fnShellExecuteVB()
dim objShell
set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.ShellExecute "C:WINNT
otepad.exe", "", "", "open",1
set objShell = nothing
End Function
I don't get any error but the application doesn't starts, I've also tried executing the notepad.exe and occurrs the same, nothing happens, I don't get error but the notepad doesnt lunch...
I'm getting tired about this code, I've tried a lot of kinds of scripts but I got the same result...
Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to execute a local batch file by simply pressing a button on an ASP page?

I am currently in the process of converting a website from an existing
web host to our servers. This website used the WScript.Shell command
to execute a series of Java commands that would send an encrypted
email.
I ran these commands directly on the server and they execute properly,
but when I try to run them from within the WScript.Shell command then
I get a return code of 1, and the actions that should be completed are
not.
The shell is executing a .bat file which is in the same directory the
text files it needs to run the following sample command(s): Code:

program either doesn't get invoked, or has an error, but since it has no error log i can't check that, so not sure why not getting a result i have run the program successfully from the command line in that directory, so know it can be run in the first place and the asp program creates and writes files in the same directory so i don't think its a permission problem. asp doesn't complain with any errors.
I am trying to use the Run method of WScript.Shell to run a program that creates image files on the server. When I run the program through the command line it creates a text file and a bmp file which is what it is supposed to do.
If I run it from an asp page it doesnt do anything, it also doesnt give me any error messages. I can run the same vbscript code in a standalone vbs file on the server and it works right. Code:
I've been testing the WScript.Shell object and the Run command now for a server query. The file I am running generates a file with the server querys which i later on parse in my page. But there is a problem. When running the Run command om my Windows XP machine it all seems fine. But when trying to run it on my webserver (not configured by myself) I get an error, or the command fails. It's nothing wrong with the acctuall command but ASP seems to not want to allow the Run command.
First I though it had to do with user privilegies but after giving the IUSR_X full access it didn't help. So, does anybody know a solution for this? Exactly what do I have to configure, for what user, to make this work on my webserver (win2k).
Trying to view asp page which has the following code in
Set obj = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell')
It falls over on this line saying 'Activex cannot create component (wscript.shell)'. Doing the same in a .vbs file results in the same error. The platform is NT4 Server Service Pack 6a.
I've made an ASP page that calls a small executable and collects its text output into a variable ("strExeOut") below. Below is some code similar to the one I use for that purpose.
strExe = "C:whatevermyprogram.exe -h1 -d33"
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strExe)
strExeOut = objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll
I developed this in my own computer and the whole thing works like a charm, but
unfortunately I assumed my hosting provider would let me run the (little and harmless) exe, and they won't.
Therefore I have to run only the "exe" portion of the code in another web server and send back the output to my website on the net. I'd like to get some feedback on what would be the best way to call an exe on another server, and to have the output sent back.
I have a process that creates a whole bunch of files in a specified directory. The names of the files are the employee IDs with an .txt extension, so they are like
EMP001.txt
EMP002.txt
EMP003.txt
The background is a bit more complicated so I won't bore you with it, but I hope that I can add a button on the asp page that would
1) go to that specified directory, which is database-driven by the department id, such as
D:DepartmentDEPT001
and I'll be able to figure the directory path from the existing code
2) then loop through each employee id and append the employee name, so the above will become
EMP001JohnDoe.txt
EMP002MaryJane.txt
EMP003PeterKay.txt
The employee names are also database driven and my asp page will be able to provide the information.
What I would like is to have a button that would open the cmd.exe and make the appropriate changes, and then do the rename, and then close the cmd window.
I know that you can have something like: Code:
can SO tell me why the following script :
dim oShell
set oShell=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.shell")
oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
set oShell=nothing
works as expected in the context of a .vbs script and doesn't work (with the following changes made...) when inserted in a .asp web page under IIS ?
dim oShell
set oShell=Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'
intReturn = oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
response.write(intReturn)
set oShell=nothing
the Shell object is well created (i can check some of its properties) but the oShell.run command doesn't seem to execute the given command line.
When I call the WScript.Shell and "RUN" the object...
I've got nothing on the server
For Example,
objWscript.Run "notepad.exe", True, 1
But on the server side, there is no this process running..
The NTFS of notepad.exe permission is set to EVERYONE already..
While the IIS is running under the account of IUSR_XXXX
Is there any something wrong in the permission settings?
However, I run the same script on Windows 2003 Server, it is ok....
How can I use WScript.Shell to execute Ms-DOS commands and can I see the
outputs commands in the asp page?
In the past, using Win. NT 4 Server and cmd..shell attribute to a variable I
could write the results in the screen page.
Any sample?
I couldnīt find any samples yet for win. 2000,ms-iii 5.0 and asp in my help
files, tutorials and guides, etc...
I need to use nslookup on an asp page. So I use the sort of code I can see
in the discussion group:
SET objShell = Server.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
DIM objExec
SET objExec = objShell.Exec("%comspec% /c nslookup -type=MX "&host)
but I get "access denied" on the SET statement. (It doesn't matter what
command I am using in the shell.)
On the physical IIS application directory Web sharing is enabled
I enable anonymous access
I have full control for the internet guest account.
I have permission for scripts and executables on the virtual directory
application protection low
read write directory browse
I have enabled web sharing for windowsSystem32. (I probably shouldn't have!)
Clearly there is something I have forgotten. But what?

View Replies View Relatedim trying to run a bat file on windows server 2003 and am running into nothing but problems.
i have IIS on my XP workstation that accesses the 2003 server. what im about to explain below works properly on the XP IIs.
i have two files: somefile.asp and somefile.bat. the asp file creates a wscript.shell and then tries to execute the run method for somefile.bat.
however, it isnt working. after an unexaggerated 7 hours of searching google/etc, i have found nothing but frustration and deep, seething anger regarding this problem. Code:
No error or any feedback that I can work with.
Code:
set objShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objShell.Run "%comspec% /c NET PRINT GarchiveISLaser[color=blue]
>c:WUTempPrinter_Status1.txt", 0, True[/color]
objShell.Run "%comspec% /c PRINT /d:GarchiveISLaser c:WUTemp est.txt",
0, True
Set objShell = nothing
I can run these commands successfully from the command-prompt on the server
but from an ASP page, I get nothing not even an error. The Text output for
NET PRINT is a blank text file.
I feel something is different on the permissions side because this
code/approach use to work fine.
I'm using this code
var file = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
file.Run(FileName);
but in case the file name is of type html i get the file in the same window and i'm 'loosing' my site.i want to have the new opened document in a new window.
Security issues, warning messages, etc., aside,
what MIME-type combination do I need for and ASP to write a BAT file to the response stream?
e.g.
Response.Clear
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.bat"
Response.Write("net send COMPUTER2 success")
Response.End()
This code does not work!
Which is surprising because in my current config, the following html works fine, and executes on the shell:
<A href="message.bat">test</A>
We're trying to write an application that will allow a user to enter an id field from an ASP intranet page and when they hit the enter button, fire off a print job. The problem is, Adobe must be open as the items being printed are PDFs.
We tried firing off a print command using MS SQL cmdShell() (not sure if that is the exact name of the command) and it works, but it never completes. The process hangs in the database because, we think, it hasn't closed Adobe, therefore never coming back to the query. We wrote the query into an ASP page.
Adobe must be open or the documents won't print properly.
Does anyone have any suggestions to how we can automate this?
how to call a batch (.bat) file from an asp file
View Replies View RelatedI have a batch file that needs to execute every day and I need to run it in a silent/invisible mode. I looked up on the Internet and found this command: shell("batchfilename.bat").
Upon failure, learned that it is a Visual Basic command and not VBScript command. I wonder if anyone knows how to run a batch file using vbscript that runs in invisible mode?
I'm trying to call a batch file that I've built using the FileSystemObject and CreateObject("Wscript.Shell"), oShell.Run. in an asp script.

View Replies View RelatedI have a batch file that takes variables from the cmd and passes them by sqlcmd to an SQL script. When I pass the variable 'MikeTestList' the script runs as expected with no problems. When I passed 'BulkTransferTest' I got an error message, 'The string or binary data will be truncated'.
Some testing has shown that I get the error when the string is anything above 12 characters. Is there a limit to the length of a string you can pass using sqlcmd from a batch file? Is there any way around it?
Also, if I have a space in the string, it only passes the string up to the space. I have tried to fill it with a '%' which then gets passed as is, so the % stays in place through out the script. Code:
I know there have been posts about this issue before, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I'm not well versed in ASP, but in PHP there is a function called exec. This launches a process. I can call a PHP script from the command line and have it run in the background i.e.
<?php
exec(php myscript.php &);
