Stopping a running exe

hi need help.
i have a vi with two button
1. button enable - run the exe automatically
2. button disable-stop/terminate the running exe
i can do the first button(run the exe) but i cant do the second button

i have a vi with two button  <=====  Is this the VI that is the executable? 
1. button enable - run the exe automatically  <=====  Is the executable a LabView VI?
2. button disable-stop/terminate the running exe
i can do the first button(run the exe) but i cant do the second button  <===  ????
I ask because the last sentence makes it sound as if you have a VI that has two button and it is not an executable.  It calls an executable... 
Is that so?
Before suggesting anything, I would need to know what type of executable we are talking about...
Can you provide more description?

    After recent windows 7 updating Adobe reader has stopped to run. Do you know solution?

    Three things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Report generation toolkit VI error when running EXE

    A VI inside the Report Generation Toolkit (version 1.1.2), Excel Find Application Directory.vi, will not function correctly when running an EXE.  The "Current VI's path" block will return the path of the currently running EXE rather than the path of the Excel Find Application Directory VI.  (The same would be true for Word Find Application Directory.vi.)
    -Joel
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Have you had a look at this knowledgebase article? The error is caused due to the exclusion of any dynamic VI.

  • Getting Data From Running EXE

    Hello,
    First off, I am an amateur programmer. I have been programming for a few years now, but because I'm a meteorology major, and not a CSCI major, I haven't had too much time. Tying in the fields of meteorology and computer science, I have made a few programs about the weather.
    There is a radar program, GRLevelX, which displays radar information, much like on television. With hi-tech abilities with it. One of the capabilities is placefiles, which can be added to the program. So what I am trying to do is make a placefile which shows an aerial map from Google Maps, which can be placed under the radar. When I get down to it, I have the code to grab the map and put it int he placefile format, however, the only thing I cant get is the coordinates of the visible window of the program.
    Is there any way I can tap into a running EXE, get variables being used by that program, and have them returned to the Java file I have created so far? I have spoke wiht one other person about this and he said I would need to call Win32 API and get the window handler. Again, I'm very new to this, so that si kind of confusing. But I try to challenge myself with these programs, trying to learn the language a bit more. I have searched through many forums trying to look how to do this, and I can't seem to find anything. Any ideas? Thank you very much! I appreciate any help anyone can provide.
    Chris

    Thanks for the quick replies. After some looking at the program and the first response, it looks like Java isn't the way to go. At least I have a good basis on how to do the main stuff, in java, just have to see if I can hand that off to someone familiar with the program to write in a different language. As for the second reply, I can see what you mean, not wanting to go into any secondary program. Especially if I don't know how its written and whatnot. There are a number of other placefiles, which do go into this program and grab data such as coordinates, and return their values. I will have to see what language they use (Visual Basic, i think?). Thanks again for the replies!

  • How to stop a running job in 10g Scheduler?

    The following is a duplicate post. I posted the following to the general database forum before seeing that otn has a new scheduler forum:
    I am not able to find in the Admin Guide a method to stop a currently running instance of a job in the 10g scheduler.
    In 9i, I run the following script calling DBMS_JOB.broken and DBMS_JOB.remove to shut down currently running jobs:
    DECLARE
    jobid NUMBER;
    CURSOR c1
    IS
    SELECT job
    FROM dba_jobs
    WHERE priv_user = 'ME';
    BEGIN
    OPEN c1;
    LOOP
    FETCH c1
    INTO jobid;
    EXIT WHEN c1%NOTFOUND;
    DBMS_JOB.broken (jobid, TRUE);
    COMMIT;
    DBMS_JOB.remove (jobid);
    COMMIT;
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE c1;
    END;
    How may I create similar code to shut down currently running jobs using DBMS_SCHEDULER in 10g? According to the Admin Guide, disabling jobs with the force option will still allow the job to finish.
    How can I terminate a running job in 10g?

    You can stop a currently running job using the STOP_JOB api.
    STOP_JOB Procedure
    This procedure stops currently running jobs or all jobs in a job class. Any instance of the job will be stopped. After stopping the job, the state of a one-time job will be set to SUCCEEDED whereas the state of a repeating job will be set to SCHEDULED or COMPLETED depending on whether the next run of the job is scheduled.
    Syntax
    DBMS_SCHEDULER.STOP_JOB (
    job_name IN VARCHAR2
    force IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE);
    Parameters
    Table 83-44 STOP_JOB Procedure Parameters
    Parameter Description
    job_name
    The name of the job or job class. Can be a comma-delimited list. For a job class, the SYS schema should be specified.
    If the name of a job class is specified, the jobs that belong to that job class are stopped. The job class is not affected by this call.
    force
    If force is set to FALSE, the Scheduler tries to gracefully stop the job using an interrupt mechanism. This method gives control back to the slave process, which can update the status of the job in the job queue to stopped. If this fails, an error is returned.
    If force is set to TRUE, the Scheduler will immediately terminate the job slave. Oracle recommends that STOP_JOB with force set to TRUE be used only after a STOP_JOB with force set to FALSE has failed.
    Use of the force option requires the MANAGE SCHEDULER system privilege.
    Setting force to TRUE is not supported for jobs of type executable.
    Usage Notes
    STOP_JOB without the force option requires that you be the owner of the job or have ALTER privileges on that job. You can also stop a job if you have the CREATE ANY JOB or MANAGE SCHEDULER privilege.
    STOP_JOB with the force option requires that have the MANAGE SCHEDULER privilege.

  • How to stop a running report in BI Publisher?

    Is there a way to stop a running report/sql in BI Publisher from BI Publisher itself?  ( killing it in database by DBA is one way)
    Thanks
    Ashish

    Yes that is the only option which we can stop a running report in BI Publisher
    I suspect you'll need to ask your DBA to kill the session.
    However, if you have DBA privileges yourself, you can do this by a few methods, some of which are described here:

  • How to run .exe files with Virtual PC for Mac

    Hey Guys, I'm new around here and with mac technology as well. Anyway, I have an iMac OS X 10.5.1 Leopard and I've recently purchased the Virtual PC for Mac 7.0.2 software. So I'd like to know how to use this program properly, because I need to run some executable files in my computer. It is confusing for me because I don't know how to get started, and I only get to the part when it says "OS not found, Install an OS on this hard drive".
    Honestly I've no idea of what an OS is or where do I get that. So I'd really appreciate if one of you guys could tell me, step by step, what to do to use Virtual PC properly, and finally learn how to run .exe files on mac.
    Thanks in advance!
    Have a nice day!

    Always nice to see new faces
    Honestly I've no idea of what an OS is or where do I get that.
    This brings up the second part of your problem. The first part is setting up either a proper Virtual Machine program like Parallels or VMfusion, or setting up a Boot Camp partition on your drive.
    http://www.parallels.com/
    http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
    OS stands for Operating System. You are running Leopard 10.5.7 as an operating system on your Mac (MacOS X).
    The second part of your problem - You will need a copy of Windows XP or Vista if you want to run Windows on your Mac.
    There is at least one other solution for running Windows programs on a Mac. It's called "CrossOver" by a company named 'Codeweavers'. It's based on a project for "Wine" to be able to run PC programs on a Mac or Linux, without having to buy or install Windows. It works with a narrow subset of Windows programs so you would want to make sure the program you want to run is compatible with CrossOver before you buy it.
    http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/
    In addition to all the above information, you need to upgrade your Mac to the latest 10.5.7 from 10.5.1. "Software Update" is located under the black Apple icon in the Menu Bar at the top left corner of your monitor. After you are updated you will want to update your Profile here so that it shows the proper OS version.
    With your level of experience with MacOS X and the Windows OS's you should probably get some help from a local Apple store. They have an appointment system and do offer many types of help and training, and they can offer assistance with choosing the proper programs for you to purchase for your machine.
    You are also welcome to continue to ask questions here, of course. You will want to ask your questions with different issues that come up in different threads so that the answers stay focused on the title of the thread.

       Go to SM37 , find the job , stop the process
    or
       To stop the job find the job with the help of the request name ( TC - SM37 ),then in the job Details find the PID .
    find the process in the process Overview (SM50 / SM51 ).
    Set the restart to NO and Cancel the process without core
    u can also see these threads that are already posted:

      In SM37, for the job , click on Step button. Then from the menu Goto > variant. You can see the process chain name here.

  • How to run .exe files on macbook pro

    Just bought my first macbook pro the other day.  I absolutely love it.  Much better than the windows boxes.  I wanted to run some '.exe' files on my new laptop but was not successful finding anything on the market to use without purchasing a full OS version of Windows.  Is there any software out there that I can use to run '.exe' files without purchasing a full Windows OS to do so.  I know about parallels for MAC but that seems to require purchasing Windows OS?  Any help is greatly appreciately.
    Here are the specs on my Macbook Pro.
    2.2GHz quad core i7
    4GB RAM
    500GB HDD

    Some Windows software -- not all, by a long shot -- will run on a Mac without installing Windows, with the aid of the CrossOver Mac emulator:

    Games generally won't. For those, you need Windows installed through Boot Camp so you can run Windows natively.

    I am sorry. I had the false impression that it was commonly known that .exe files did not run on Mac OSX natively and failed to see any constructive critique you were bringing. Maybe I am wrong. Again deepest apologies.
    Unfortunately... these days... not every one is aware of this .exe  fact..

    Hi Ofer ,
    i think , u have to manually run the application in the client side after downloading from the server itself..
    u have to kept it in server , and allow the client application to download it to client side and then execute..
    otherwise , u have to programaically  do these steps ,, copying the exe from server to a tem location in client and execute this in client side...
      we can access files which are residing in server in one mor way .. thats with WebDav ... u have to set up this in the Enterprise portal if u have ..
    if u have a  IIS server in the same server machine or another machine , u can put these there and using WebDav u can access...
