Launch a pocess from .bat

[pobrouwers]

Hello,
Is it possible to execute a .bat file to launch a process ?
What is the syntax for the .bat ?

Thx

Yes it is. There was an executable to run a TIprocess posted in the last 5 months. Check the previous posts.

When somebody finds it, can you please put it in the Useful Code sticky post, crediting the author.

(I had a quick search but couldn't find it).

Cheers,

Hi Martin,

I'll dig it up since I had originally posted a couple of the EXEs there (one to run a chore, one to run a process) - I first want to update the EXEs to eliminate a couple minor bugs, so look out for it in the next day or so.

I found this site a year ago.

I think you want the call command.

Always considered creating the .bat file with TI ASCIIOutput() and the executing the BAT file, but never had a practical reason to do it. If you come up with anything let me know.

Hi everybody,
I've found those exe and it's works... Place those 2 .exe to the folder bin of TM1 c:/program files/cognos/tm1/bin (normally)
read instruction in the attached text files...
let me know if you have a problem

pobrouwers,

You may have missed my above post in this thread (this relates only to the TIExecute.zip that you attached) - I had very recently updated our 2 TI process/chore executables and posted them in the "Useful Code" thread on the Cognos TM1 forum. It shows up in a sticky post near the top of the list of forum threads. The copy you attached in your post is much older, so you may want to update your attachment to the more recent copy. If it helps, the following should get you to the more recent post:

The older EXE versions generally work, but may crash, for example if you get the parameters wrong.

Mike

It does not work for me - can it be because we run TM1 on 64-bit server? We desperatly need to run TM1 processes from a script or command line...
