Problem with subprocess.Popen()

[The Cruisemaniac]

Hi all,

I'm trying to run a windows batch file from a python script using
subprocess.popen().

The issue that I'm facing is that, if i give the batch file as
parameter to the popen function, the script runs, but if i provide a
parameter, it is not working.

Can someone help me with the command.

The actual windows command to be executed is:

test.bat -t ABC_DE_FG_HI_001 "C:\ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP.TXT"

What is the actual parameter required for subprocess.Popen(parameter
chain) in this case??

Kindly help me out...

Regards and Thanks in advance...
Ashwin Murali.

do something like:
subprocess.Popen(r'test.bat -t ABC_DE_FG_HI_001
"C:\ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP.TXT",shell=True)

This is same as doing os.system()

If even this results in any error (post back the error message) and try
setting the executable argument explicit.

subprocess.Popen(r'test.bat -t ABC_DE_001
"C:\ABCD.TXT",executable="test.bat",shell=True)
