execCommand() is not working in workflow.

Hello Everyone,

execCommand() is not working in a JS activity in a workflow on application server.

There is on-premise instance and build is 9032.

Configuration is serverConfig.xml:

<!-- Command execution

         blacklistFile :  Path to the file containing the commands to blacklist

         user :  Execute commands as a different user -->

    <exec blacklistFile="" user=""/>

JS Code:

logInfo(execCommand("cd",true));

Error:

BAS-010076 Cannot execute command 'cd' (err=2, the system cannot find the file specified.).

I am getting same error for every commands.

Please let me know if you have any question.

Thanks.

Parvesh.

Hello Saikatk,

Thanks it is working now.

Could you please explain me why the first one was not working?

This solution is not mentioned in documentation.

How did you find it?

Thank.

Parvesh.

Hi,

'cd' is not a Windows executable, it's a cmd command.

Thanks,

Hello Jon,

Yes, 'cd' is a cmd command.

Can you please explain, what do you mean by Windows executable?

Thanks.
