- does that call return anything at all? For example, if you try: print 'A' os.system(...) print 'B'
do you ever get see 'A' and 'B' ? - have you tried using subprocess instead of os.system? For example: import subprocess subprocess.call("E:/Python/web2py_src/web2py/applications/ TheReckoning/ prod_scripts/dropship_copy_to_opc.bat") you may also check other libs like: os.spawn* os.popen* popen2.* commands.* (not so recommended) - Finally, you give little information about your problem. You probably would live better with an IDE/debugger, probing your stack data with breakpoints and showing you the code at execution time.
