https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-MPI-Library/Problem-launching-windows-console-application-using/m-p/996898#M3656 <P>All,</P> <P>I have a working console application(&nbsp;call myApp)&nbsp;which is launched using mpiexec on windows 2008server.&nbsp; It works fine. However I am now adding a feature where in I want to launch a new application(call childapp) from my application. I am using Windows function "CreateProcess", If the childapp is , hnotpad it launches fine, however if it is a console application like cmd.exe or my "childapp" it doesn't work, the createprocess call succeeds in all cases. If I give a wrong path etc. createprocess calls fails appropriately.&nbsp;&nbsp; Similar code calling createprocess works in a test client application&nbsp;(not run through mpiexec,&nbsp;did not try&nbsp;that).&nbsp;This test client&nbsp;aunches childapp successfully.&nbsp;</P> <P>Are there any restrictions calling createProcess, any special flags needed in the above scenario? Pl. advise.</P> <P>Thanks</P> Thu, 10 Jul 2014 19:52:22 GMT Tushar_S_1 2014-07-10T19:52:22Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-MPI-Library/Problem-launching-windows-console-application-using/m-p/996898#M3656 <P>All,</P> <P>I have a working console application(&nbsp;call myApp)&nbsp;which is launched using mpiexec on windows 2008server.&nbsp; It works fine.
