Running scrpt exe silently

Hi,
I want to run a command (Start /S /M test.exe). If i try as below, then the console window is showing up. I want to execute the below without showing the console window. I tried using WinExec, but this is not executing the command.
system("Start /S /M test.exe")
Can someone please help on this.

Basically if the "start" part is a hard requirement, then you are stuck -- start is an internal command to cmd.exe. If you want to run it you have to run cmd (which is what the system function does). Running cmd will get you a console
window.
You might be able to hide the console window from cmd.exe by calling CreateProcess and passing "Start /S /M test.exe" as arguments to cmd.exe. You could use the LPSTARTUPINFO in CreateProcess to request that the console window start hidden
(I am not sure this will work, but it might).
Keep in mind that there is nothing that start does that you cannot do yourself using the Windows APIs (after all that is what cmd.exe does when you run the start command). Most likely start is just a call to CreateProcess with various arguments based
on the arguments to start.

Run Labview exe silently

Hi all,
I want to be able to run a Labview exe silently. I am aware that you can use VI properties to hide or make the front panel transparent when the main VI runs. However, when the application runs the front panel still "flashes" before it disappears. (I guess LV loads the runtime engine etc. before it gets to the bit of the code that makes the front panel hidden.)
Is there any way to run an LV application with a hidden front panel without this flashing effect? I want to run it completely silently, without even a minimised icon.
Thanks for listening.

Actually, it doesn't. That just hides the initial splash screen. It doesn't hide the button for the actual build application.
Oh...
Maybe I'm confusing it with another property.
I very rarely mess with the ini files of my applications,
but I know theres a property in there somewhere that can hide the application on the taskbar.

Labview 2010 run-time engine silent install

I am having trouble with installing the run-time engine for LabVIEW 2010 with the silent option.
I am using the minimum version of the run-time engine.
Before I used the LV7 run-time engine. Then I could install it silently using LVRunTimeEng.exe /qb!
In LabVIEW 2010 the run-time engine is no longer a single file but a directory that contains the installation files. There are two files that can be used to launch the installer Setup.exe and LV2010runtime.msi.
Setup.exe does not seem to accept any command-line arguments. LV2010runtime.msi however accepts the command-line arguments and can be installed silently.
Now my problem is that I am building a windows installer using a third party application and it is only possible to launch exe files after the installation completes. Before I could launch the LVRunTimeEng.exe /qb! to install the labview 7 run-time engine but now when I have upgraded to labview 2010 I cannot do the same for Setup.exe.
My question is if it is possible to use the Setup.exe file to install the Labview 2010 run-time engine (minumum) silently?

Setup.exe runs a number of other .exe files during its execution. This article looks like it will allow you to run setup.exe silently by supressing all messages and windows:

Installing Oracle Hyperion Offline Planning (Offline.exe) silently

Hi,
I have been tasked with packaging the Smart View and Offline Planning products together for release to many users at my firm. To do so I need to be able to run both installers silently (without prompting the user). I am able to silence the install of Smart View with the following command line ...
SmartView.exe /S /V"INSTALLDIR=C:\Progra~1\Oracle\SmartView ALLUSERS=2 REBOOT=ReallySuppress /QN"
However I am unable to silence the install of the Offline.exe in the same way. In fact I get an error even if i run Offline.exe /? to try and determine what switches can be passed as parameters to the exe.
I have also tried running Offline.exe /R to try and record a setup.iss file to silence it and get the same sort of error indicating an invalid switch.
Is there any documentation that you could send me on how to silently install Offline.exe?
Kind Regards,
Duncan

Hi,
You should download the files from Oracle edelivery site.

I think the files you have downloaded is just a patch.

Running an exe from within Oracle WebLogic 10g R3 does not find dll

Hi,
I am facing a strange issue with Oracle WebLogic 10g R3.
I use the code as shown in Listing 1 below to run a windows based application exe (batch job) from within my web application hosted on Oracle WebLogic 10g Release 3.
Note that this code woks fine on Tomcat 6.x and OC4J (JDeveloper TP4).
The exec gets executed but the log of the exe program shows it could not load certain DLLs.
Note that these DLLs are in the same directoy as the Batch program and this directory is in the PATH.
Running through simple Java Program Successful*
When I run the same program from a java program it runs successfully. So this means some WebLogic environment does not get set properly.
Running directly BatchProg.exe rather than cmd.exe fails*
Also note that when I run the exe directly e.g. BatchProg.exe rather than through cmd.exe it gives me a error the system did not find the file specified.
CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified with cause java.io.IOException: CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified
Listing 1:*
String[] commandArgs = new String[|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/] { "cmd.exe", "/C", "BatchProg.exe \"param1\" \"param2\" " },null , l_workingDir)
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc;
proc = rt.exec( commandArgs, envParams, workingDir );
ProcessIO errStream = new ProcessIO( proc.getErrorStream(), "ERROR");
ProcessIO outStream = new ProcessIO( proc.getInputStream(), "OUTPUT");
errStream.start(); // process any errors from the command
outStream.start(); // process any output from the command
System.out.println("Error=" +errStream);
System.out.println("Out" + outStream);
return (p_waitToFinish ? proc.waitFor() : this.SUCCESS);

OK.
I have posted this on the WebLogic Forum.
Thanx.

T400 with ATI Radeon HD 3400. Driver not found after running ImageX.exe /Capture

Hello,
I was able to reproduce the following problem on a T400.
- unattended installation of WXP-SP3 (slipstreamed)
- reboot
- install latest ATI driver from Lenovo/IBM site (8.503.2.2-080818a-069536C)
- reboot
At this point, the video driver is well configured.
- Reboot once or twice, video driver still good.
- Boot the T400 on WinPE 2.0
- Capture the C:\ to a network file share using ImageX.exe (from Microsoft's WAIK 1.1)
- Shutdown the T400, and reboot on C:\
- At this point, video driver is "lost". The Hardware Wizard says "new driver found", but stick with default VGA.
Then I get an ATI error telling the driver is missing or not well installed.
- When rebooting several times, suddenly the card is back in the device manager as a Radeon HD 3400.
(without re-installing the driver ...)
Anyone has an explanation ?
Please not I did not run "sysprep.exe" before capturing with ImageX.exe
stefan

Update on this problem.
After running "sysprep.exe -mini -quiet -reseal -shutdown", I ran the "ImageX.exe /capture".
After rebooting the T400, the ATI driver was fine.
Either is a coincidence (but I could repeat it 3 times...) or it is not advised to run "ImageX.exe /Capture" on a non-syspreped Windows XP.
I know that a non-syspreped Vista system has a limitation if captured with ImageX.exe. But I am not aware on any limitation with XP.

I can download firefox, but when I try to run it, windows 7 asks me to select a program type to run the *.exe file

I am running windows 7 with IE 10. I want to switch to Firefox as my browser. I am able to download the Firefox Setup 22 0 exe, but when I try to open or run it, windows prompts me to "choose the program you want to use to open this file". This happens with both the Firefox Setup Stub 22 0 exe (274kb) and the Firefox Setup 22 0 exec (21,239Kb). I can't find any program on Windows to run this exe. Same thing happens when I try to run the troubleshooter exe.

Hello annsboland
Do you have also problem with others exe files ?
try to create a new user account in Windows 7 and check it again
see if the next articles in the links helps to create the new account:

Requirement is to run CMD.EXE under the Local System Account. So that we can map a network drive to be used by a windows service, which will be created by command: - net use z: \\servername\sharedfolder /persistent:yes

Environment:
OS: Windows 7 32/64 bit, Windows 2008 Server 64
bit/ Windows 2012 Server 64 bit
Priority:
- Critical
Requirement: - Since
the Windows Service is running under the Local System Account, we would like to emulate this same behaviour.
Basically, we would like to run CMD.EXE under the Local System Account. So that we can map a network drive to be used by a service using following
command
net use z: \\servername\sharedfolder /persistent:yes.
Already Attempt:
We tried to launch the CMD.exe using the DOS Task Scheduler AT command. Here’s a sample command:
AT 10:36 /interactive cmd.exe
But I received a warning that “due
to security enhancements, this task will run at the time excepted but not interactively.”
It turns out that this approach will work for XP, 2000 and Server 2003 but due to session isolation
Interactive services no longer work on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and above.
2. We
tried to create a secondary Windows Service via the Service Control (sc.exe) which merely launches CMD.exe.
<Drive>:\sc create RunCMDAsLSA binpath= "cmd" type=own type=interact <Drive>:\sc
start RunCMDAsLSA
In this case the service fails to start and results it the following error message:
FAILED 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
3. One
suggestion, we found to launch CMD.exe via a Scheduled Task, but
it is not giving any option to launch CMD.exe in interactive mode; so that I can map network drive using net command.
4. I read an article, which
demonstrates the use of PSTools from SysInternals. I launched the command line and executed following command
psexec -i -s cmd.exe
PSTools worked fine, but It seems that in scope of Sysinternals Software License
Terms. You may not "use the software for commercial software hosting services."
Application will deploy on client, which will be like commercial,
so we are not able to use PSTools.
Kindly assist us for achieving the requirement. We have tried all the ways, but nothing is working for us. Kindly suggest.
I will be really thankful.

Hi Sir,
Nothing worked from above for us. You can see our remarks on posted query.
That’s why, we posted on forum.
And there will not be any vulnerability, because, if we will use "net
use ..."
in network domain; definitely,
we will provide username and password of mapped drive system.
And, that system, itself is given by client; so that, there must not be any vulnerability; they are ready to provide user name and password.
We need a way; by which we can complete the requirement. Kindly assist.
Regards,
S. P. Singh

How many times can I run PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrad .... command

I'm getting VSS error in my eventlog -> application. I was getting 8213 and followed http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc734219(v=ws.10).aspx and
now I'm gettting 8230.
Meanwhile my backups not are running. I remember running PSConfig command when I first installed windows and sharepoint 2010 on this box for system backup to work correctly.
Now I run WMIC QFE LIST FULL /Format:HTable > C:\Temp\HotfixList.html to retrieve all the installed update to check if KBs
2460045 or 2687453 are installed unnoticed but I don't have any history of installed updates suprising eh!
Now I want to run
PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent
-install -cmd installfeatures
just incase one of them have been installed unnotice.
How many times can I run this PSConfig command? How dangerous is this decision?

You can run it as many times as you want, but it will take SharePoint down on that particular server (resets IIS, for example), while it executes.

I have a problem with running an EXE file on win2000, the Lab View is 5.1 and I do not know if it is 16 bit...what should I do?

Hi Arika,
The drivers that you need to install to make your executable work depends on what your executable is doing. To get started, you need to have the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine installed on your target machine (the Win2000 machine you are planning to use) in order to run your executable. Next, you need to determine what drivers your executable uses, if any. For example, if you are using GPIB instrument control, you will need to install the NI-488 drivers on your target machine. If you are performing data acquisition, you will need to install NI-DAQ drivers. If you are doing image acquistion, you will need to install NI-IMAQ drivers.
All these drivers are available for downloading on ni.com. To get the drivers, go to ht
tp://www.ni.com/support , click on the link that takes you to Drivers and Updates (under Option 3), and click on the links to get to the driver(s) you need. For example, if you need the LabVIEW 5.1.1 Run-Time engine, click on the All Drivers and Updates by Application link on the main page (http://www.ni.com/softlib.nsf/). Then click on the LabVIEW link, Windows 2000, Run Time Engine, and then you will see the link to get to the page to download the LabVIEW 5.1.1 Run-Time Engine.
I hope this information helps.
