Problems with the promsgs file !! Need help

[make]

Hi there,

i have i mysterious problem. I tried to start some cmd-files(starting some progress procedures) with the "at" Command from a Windows 2000 Server.
When the "at" command starts the batch file, the message " Unable to open promsgs error! " comes.
When i start the batch file manualy , it works fine.
I have set the dlc path ! the same error.

Need help

You also need to set the environment variable PROMSGS

I do the following:

SET DLC=c:\dlc
SET DLCBIN=%DLC%\bin
SET PROMSGS=%DLC%\promsgs
SET TEMP=c:\temp
SET PATH=%DLCBIN%;%DLC%;%PATH%

Next to the definition of environment variables as described in the previous reply, you also have to take good care what account starts the winat/at-service, since this will be user which in the end executes the cmd file. Often this will be the system-account with its own user rights / env. settings... to check these is always worth a shot.....
