How to run server side vbscript file from website
Hello,
In relation to my previous question, about running a batch file from an asp.net page.
I now need to run a vbscript file instead of a batch file.
I thought it would have just been a simple task of substituting the batch file name with the vbscript file name.
However, I can run the batch file successfully but not the vbscript file.
I have tried running the vbscript file from within the batch file but this does not work either.
I have tried several other methods as can be seen in this code snippet below.
I've remmed out some of the other options I had tried.
If someone can post up a working code sample, I would be absolutely grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Hi Hain,
I tried that already, as per
procDisableDot1x.StartInfo .FileName = "c:\windows\system32\cscri pt.exe"
procDisableDot1x.StartInfo .RedirectS tandardOut put = False
procDisableDot1x.StartInfo .Arguments = "c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Disabl eDot1x.vbs "
I've also tried different variations of this programmatically in the script.
Any other suggestions?
Regards,
Joe

try this
System.Diagnostics.Process .Start("cs cript c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Disable Dot1x.vbs" );
System.Diagnostics.Process
look @ here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/200422/how-to-call-the-vbscript-file-in-c-application
there are some samples
maybe you should use a new System.Diagnostics.Process instead of using an existing one...

what happens when you enter DisableDot1x.vbs and hit run on command line?
is vbs registered? did you install host scripting? does IIS user have access to that file/folder? did you check event manager for any warnings/errors? is that code giving you error? if not, did you check task manager whether it is running or not (since it will be invisible)?

You can run script files from the command line in one of two ways:
Type the name of the script, including its file name extension, at the command prompt:
HardwareAudit.vbs
Type the name of one of the script hosts followed by the name of the script:
cscript HardwareAudit.vbs
wscript HardwareAudit.vbs
