Calling external applications from NAS in NAV 2015

alsol

We have a few jobs that run on the NAS service. They call external applications using a shell.

This worked in NAV 2009 but since the upgrade to NAV 2015, it does not work anymore. What is the suggested approach to run external applications from jobs that run in NAS?

Hi alsol,

use DotNet variables, in this case I recommend to use "System.Diagnostics.Process.'System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'"

// Process = DotNet System.Diagnostics.Process 

ExecutableFile := "path to the exe file";
Arguments := "any arguments, optional";
Process := Process.Start(ExecutableFile,Arguments);

IF Process.HasExited THEN BEGIN
// ....
END;
