Windows acrodist command line parameters

How would I pass parameters like -permspassword, -allowchangestonotes, -allowplaintextmetadata, etc... to acrodist when running it from the command line? I am only familiar with switches like /J, /N, /Q ... And the joboptions are static.
Should these params be included into a startup file?
Thanks

These are on the Unix distiller command. There is no equivalent in Windows. Set the options in the user interface.

Command Line Parameters for spotify.exe? (Windows 7)

I've been trying to use Windows Speech Recognition to open music. The problem is, the WSR Macros only open the executable then ask you if you want to run the program with command-line parameters. What I want to do is say the album or the artist then have Spotify open and play that artist/album; I can't do that until I figure out how to open spotify with parameters, if there are even any. Thanks for your help. (I also know how Spotify has had multiple suggestions for this to be integrated in the application itself, but I'm trying to just use Windows Speech Recog)

Command line parameters and resuming

Hi,
I am researching for a client who wishes to have several students (K-12) using Adobe Captivate course on the same computer. Another constraint is that a course is run from DVD (1+ GB in size) so it's published as standalone application (.exe for Windows, .app for Mac). Quick questions:
Can a course have an action to parse command line parameters? I haven't found that.
Explanation: this would be used to simply parse a name and e-mail address (if possible) and last module passed to a course player. Resuming could be disabled (there is an answer how to do that in the forum) or overridden but the learner should be transferred to a slide to resume based on the calling parameter (and not the default resuming - there will be several users so each must resume from the last passed module slide).
Can a progress of the current learner using the course be saved to a database (no LMS, e-mail, Acrobat.com etc)?
Explanation: this is needed for the current learner and for each one separately. I guess I already have a solution in mind (custom application, having small internal web server like Mongoose, with a script that replaces internalServerReporting.php and saves the data to a internal database, SQLite). But for this to work spawning a course with command line parameters and course itself reading these parameters would need to work.
If there is a (better) solution for the above, please reply. The goal is have minimal changes on the course e.g. if there are command line parameters, then parse them and do something (mark modules passed, open appropriate next slide). If parameters are not given/recognized, do nothing (so the course would still work on computers used by one learner only, including resuming etc).
My opinion is that this should also be one-way as much as possible. E.g. additional application handles user name, e-mail and current progress and spawns Captivate course. The published course itself should not depend on the application like reading progress from a text file (though an URL call could return current progress from an application for the same user name). So ideally only changes to use internal server publishing to save current progress and adding a logic to check parameters at start would be applied to a course.
Waiting for your smart answers.

DVDs, when finalized, are read-only... so unless you are considering to do an Install of the course from the DVD to the machine, you're not going to be able to write to a database. A USB stick may be more suitable in this situation.
Command line params are not possible with EXEs unless you create your own EXE wrapper. If you're going to go through that trouble, you'd be better off creating an Adobe Air application that can run your local web content without security restrictions and use SQLite or some other backend to store the data.
Can the progress be saved? It depends what you mean by progress. If you just want to allow the student to resume from the slide where they left off... you can do that with a bit of JavaScript. However, if you want to ensure that any previous questions answered on a quiz were also resumed and intact from the previous session... not possible without an LMS.
Why not run a Moodle installation via a USB stick and you can have a full featured LMS with a database and ability to resume a previous session?

Just some things to consider...

MS TS RemoteApp Programs Command-line Parameters (%temp% or %appdata%)

Hello,
We are trying to get an in house Application published to the TS RemoteApp Programs. We are using a logon script that places the a cmd file in the users %temp% or %adddata%. We are using this so that there is no file locks that occur.
Then we wish to use the command-line parameter "Always use the following command-line parameters" as Local -t -c "%temp%\file.fp". However this is not successful. I have eliminated the %temp% with the temp directory path and the application
runs correctly.
It looks like to me that the environmental variable is not loading. Is there something that I can do for this to get this running?

Starting Projector w/Command line Parameters

I would like pass one to three command line parameters to the projectors embedded SWF at runtime.
Player 11.1
myProjector.exe param1, param1
Thanks,
Jim

Im looking to do this via a command line. Ultimately how I intend on using this is creating a Windows Explorer Context Menu that allows me to right click on a folder or file and automatically add it to iTunes.
Ive already created one to 'Play in iTunes' and using the command line mentioned above and it works like a charm.
Thanks again!

InstallShield command line parameters when launching install

Hi,
I am attempting to install Ver 5.0.1.4 (same error occurs with ver 4.x)and after the .exe unpackages, I get the following error: InstallShield - command line parameters... etc etc..
I have attempted to uninstall all Apple apps and reinstall. The iPod Updater reinstalls without error, iTunes always returns the above error. I have performed the following steps:
1. msiexec /regserver - reboot
2. uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Installer 3.1 KB893803v2
3. clearing the %temp% dir
4. deleting the Program Files/Common Files/InstallShield/Engine contents
5. rebooting, cursing and taking numerous mental 'time-outs'
I'm running XP SP2 w/ all updates. Zonealarm FW - disabled, McAfee Virusscan - disabled, and no active anti-spy software.
I've scoured the forums for help on this issue and can't find any. Google also hasn't been much help.
Does anyone know how to get past this error?
Cheers

Jakub,
I've seen people complain about this problem a time or two, but it's very rare. I'm told that you can work around this problem by downloading the winrar application and opening that to uncompress the iTunesSetup.exe file.

Command line parameters and path problem

hello ....
I have to execute an application from my java program. My application called "AIMSS" takes 2 command line parameters. Now, when i mention those parameters with complete path to my executeable, windows reports that "unable to open the shortcut". Below is what i am trying:
private static final String WIN_PATH = "rundll32";
private static final String WIN_FLAG "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler";
private String cmd = null;
private String url = null;
public void runMyFileWithMessage(String msg)
    try
url = "C:\\Program Files\\Raytheon\\AIMSS 4.0\\Runtime\\Standard\\aimss40.exe" + " AAAVIETM 3457";
             cmd = WIN_PATH + " " + WIN_FLAG + " " + url;
             System.out.println(url);
             Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
        catch(IOException io)
            System.out.println("AIMSS problem. Below is the Stack Trace.");
            io.printStackTrace();
    }Although, when i tried to run the executeable from Start->Run, by giving it same complete path and 2 arguments, it runs fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Raheel.

Passing multiple paramters in a String to exec() doesn't work. Use the exec method that takes a String array instead and pass the call and each parameter in as a separate String.
Off the top of my head (check the api) it will be something like
String[] cmd = {"C:\\Program Files\\Raytheon\\AIMSS 4.0\\Runtime\\Standard\\aimss40.exe","AAAVIETM", "3457"};
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);

Does RESMAN have any command line parameters?

I've written a program that launches RESMAN on startup, but after RESMAN completes successfully, the RESMAN progress dialog doesn't dismiss itself, it waits until somebody hits the "close" button. I noticed that the T&M Explorer automatically dimisses the window when it's done, so I'm thinking there must be some command line parameters or switches that I can specify.

ep138:
You can give RESMAN the parameter '-o' and it will run silently, and the user will not have to press the "close" button.

Command line parameters for automator?

I'm trying to setup a cron job to so that every morning at 8 am "New Mail.workflow" will open and run. I'm able to get it to open but I was wondering if there were command line parameters for Automator that could open AND run a workflow file? Ideally I'd like it to close after running, but I'll worry about that later. Thanks in advance.

The preferred way is to save your workflow as an application and then call usr/bin/open on it. If for some reason you must have the workflow run inside of Automator (not self-contained) then you're looking at some quality time with man osascript. As it happens Apple has removed even the need for Cron for most users. A click to File -> Save As Plug-In -> for iCal handles it from start to finish.
Edit: I forgot to mention that Automator has its own simple command line utility for running *.workflow files. Check out man automator

Command Line Parameters Nightmare!

My issue--and it seems to only be my issue--is with the Command Line Parameters. I have been trying to install iTunes 5.0 for five days now. I have tried everything posted in these forums. Dmitry, thanks for such a great resource; it helped some, but not with this one problem, unfortunately.
Anyway, everytime I open the iTunes installer I get a message about command line parameters. It gives me a list of a bunch of parameters that I know nothing about. If you would like to see a screen shot of this travesty, you can go to this link: http://staff.fcps.net/nfish/specialdownloadspage.htm.
Anyone know how to fix this problem or know an alternative solution? Thanks.

I solved my problem...Everyone who has this problem needs to go see Tim's incredible solution at Nathanael Fish, "new error......" #13, 09:55am Sep 23, 2005 CDT

Command line parameters for OMBPlus?

Hi,
Is it possible to pass command line parameters to TCL scripts running in OMBPlus.sh, and if so, can someone provide an example?
I'm able to use the argv0 variable to get the script name itself but not sure how to get any other additional parms...
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
If you are building command-line scripts to automate OMB+ commands, there is another factor you should be aware of. If your script errors out cleanly, the OMBPlus.sh does NOT pass this back to the shell. The return code is evaluated within OMBPlus as the return from a "source" command and then OMBPlus exits normally.
For example:
#file test.tcl
return -code error
Unix/shell> OMBPlus.sh test.tcl
Unix/shell> echo $?
0What I do to pass an error state back to the shell is to create a flag file in my script if exiting due to error. My shell script deletes this file prior to running the script and then tests for it after the run as part of the conditional logic
Function in tcl file:
#Get location where this script installed
#This variable is set at the top of the script.
set theScriptDir [ file dirname [info script]]
#If we want to bail in the script at any point we call exit_failure with an appropriate error message
proc exit_failure { msg } {
   global theScriptDir
   set ERRFLAGFILE "$theScriptDir/ers_owb_import.error"
#rollback any uncommitted work
   OMBROLLBACK
#Log the error and exit
   set fout [open "$ERRFLAGFILE" a+]
   puts $fout "Error:-> $msg"
   close $fout
   # return and also bail from calling function
   return -code error
}And my shell script does something like:
cd ${JOB_DIR}
rm -f ers_owb_import.error 2>/dev/null
echo \\nBegining Uninstall of OWB Project
./OMBPlus.sh ${JOB_DIR}/my_tcl_Script.tcl
if [ -f ${JOB_DIR}/ers_owb_import.error ] ; then
      echo \\nERROR - SCRIPT FAILED
else
     echo \\nScript Succeeded.
     # script logic continues....
fiCheers,
Mike

How to get ALL command line parameters

Is there possibility to get all command line parameters which
Flex builder invokes when I press RUN button ?
I am asking because I want to create mxmlc ant task with the
same parameters as Flex builder.
I wrote something like that below but I have a problem with
invoking remote function, it seems that poduced SWF inf flex
builder an my script (below) arent the same - and mayby have some
security differences.
Any Ideas how to get all compiler argumets from flex builder
quote:
<mxmlc

output="${flex.output}\main.swf"
services="${path.tomcat.root.WEB}/flex/services-config.xml"

<compiler.library-path dir="${FLEX_HOME}\frameworks"
append="true">
<include name="libs" />
<include name="../bundles/{locale}" />
</compiler.library-path>
</mxmlc>

Hi,
Try -dump-config compiler argument, which will write all the
currently set configuration values. Please find more details at the

BSM / audit_syslog ... how to get command line parameters in syslog?

Hi All!
I have been experimenting with Sun Basic Security Module (BSM) and was trying to send audit data via syslog to a central logging server like so:
# cat /etc/security/audit_startup
/usr/sbin/auditconfig -setpolicy +argv,arge
# cat /etc/security/audit_control
plugin: name=audit_syslog.so;p_flags=lo,ex,fr,fc,fd,fw,fmThis does produce the desired log output on the central logging server, except that the log lines do not contain command line parameters / environment variables:
2008-10-14T15:04:26-06:00 csadm4/csadm4 audit: [ID 702911 audit.notice] execve(2) ok session 1576737601 by rem_adm as root:root in csadm4 from csadm1-16.shell.ca obj /usr/bin/lessAs this makes it pretty useless for keeping proper audit records (there is a difference between
rm ~/file and
rm /file that I would like to see) I was wondering if there is a way to customize what is actually produced by audit_syslog.so?
Thanks in advance,
Rudolf

No, your plugin doesn't get any access to the command line. Look for other methods of IAC (COM, DDE, shared memory, shared file, etc.)
