Re: CreateProcess FAILS

Hi Craig,
How did you get this resolved, CreateProcess also fails for me. I looked at
all the app & service development items, couldn't find anything missing.
Thanks
Anand

Hi Chris,
Thank you for responding. As it turns out, I was missing a dependency in
my
OS. A rebuild with more app & service development items was able to
correct
the issue.

Thanks again,
Craig

Hello,
I am running into a strange problem on a system which I am building.
In
one
of my applications I am doing a "CreateProcess" call (See code below).
This
call always fails with a 126 error (The specified module could not be
found).

I have run this code on many other platforms without any problems. I
am
100% sure that the exe is present on the system and in the folder that
I
am
referencing (I can copy the file without a problem).
Is there anything in (or not in) the OS which would prevent this method
from
working properly?
Thank you for any help in advance.


Code:
PROCESS_INFORMATION ProcInfo;
memset(&ProcInfo,0,sizeof(ProcInfo));

if(!FileExists(lpszProc))
{
return FALSE;
}

BOOL bCreate = CreateProcess(lpszProc, lpszCmdLine, NULL, NULL, FALSE,
NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, &ProcInfo);

if ( !bCreate )
{
DWORD dwError;
dwError = GetLastError();
RETAILMSG(TRUE,(L"\r\nCreateProcess ERROR: %d\r\n", dwError) );
}

return bCreate;
