Hello All,
I've spent the last two hours trying to figure this out but I just couldn't.
I'm using os.execute to run a batch file. When I double click the
batch file it runs fine. I can also run it fine from the command prompt. There is nothing wrong with the command.
Now the problem is, the file gives an error when I try to run it through the os.execute. Batch file is just a single line:
reg.exe QUERY
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Perl > perl_location.txt
When I run os.execute(perl.bat) I get the following error:
ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
Now the bizarre thing is, if I try another registry key such as :
reg.exe QUERY HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Notepad > perl_location.txt
It works!!!
I just couldn't figure out what is wrong here. Any thoughts?
