RE: P.S --RE: Process won't run

Couple ideas here:
1) try doing this the "easy way"

Process.Start("C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Uniformity\ProcessStuff\WtDistrib.exe")

If that doesn't work, you may have a permissions issue. ASP.NET by default
runs under weak credentials. You could add
<identity impersonate="true" userName="strongaccountname" password = "pass" />
to the web.config.

Where "strongaccountname" is an account that you know has permission to
execute in the respective directory.

Hope that helps,
Peter

Correction. The error reads, "No process is associated with this object."

I dropped the Process return type.

When I step through, an exception is thrown at

WtDistrib.WaitForExit()

"No thread is associated with this process."

The example I posted is only one of several that I have tried. This is my
first asp.net application.

Don't use Console.WriteLine in a method that's supposed to work in an ASP.NET

You could use System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine if you want.
