problems using System.Diagnosics.Process.Start to start Process
-
Hi, sorry for posting again, but problem hasn't been solved jet. I know this might be difficult, but perhaps somebody knows: my starting routine looks like this: private void StartProcess() { System.Diagnostics.Process p = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); p.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\\Programme\\AutoGK\\AutoGK.exe"; p.Start(); } When I run the code everything is executed fine except that the application to be started shows me an error: "Installation is corrupted. Please reinstall the application." BTW: The code works with any ohter application I have tested so far. But starting the app (AutoGK) manually (in windows explorer via double click, etc.) causes no errors and the application starts fine. The program I want to start is AutoGordianKnot, which probably was written in Qt. Any suggestions? Greetings

What happens if you run that command from the command line?

Is your application being run from a different user account than your are developing? That could cause an issue, esp with ASP.NET.

There is a chance that the AutoGK application is looking for some support file and cannot find it when started from a .NET app. When started from explorer or from the command-line, it is able to find support files automatically. Explorer knows where to look for support files as an app is always configured with a startup directory. Starting from a .NET app it may not know where it's home directory is (i.e., there maybe some Field that needs to be set to tell it where it's home directory is). Just a thought.
