Erik Sandberg <sandb...@virtutech.com> added the comment: Did you test your code? I'm pretty sure I tried almost exactly the code you suggest, and got an error like "'t' is not recognized as an internal or external command...' (I cannot test this right now as I don't have access to Windows machines). In order to use shell=False, I think the correct thing should be something like this, though I haven't tried it myself yet: subprocess.call(["/c", "t(o.bat"], executable="cmd.exe")
(this guess is based on what I read in msdn.com's docs on CreateProcess: """To run a batch file, you must start the command interpreter; set lpApplicationName to cmd.exe and set lpCommandLine to the following arguments: /c plus the name of the batch file.""") ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5484> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
