exec("C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe../stopwas.bat")

and it displayed an error message

"there is no script engine for file extension .bat"

• also I have tried to run batch file from OS process sampler and I wrote the command as :

  command :cmd
  stopwas.bat 
  

also it failed can anyone help me with this issue?

Answer 1

For OS Process Sampler I guess you need to provide a command parameter like /c or /k.

So:

• Command: cmd
• Command parameters:
  • /c
  • c:\somefolder\someotherfolder\stopwas.bat

Mention that you have to use full path to your .bat file.

Another option is executing it via Beanshell Sampler

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:/Windows/System32/cmd.exe /c c:/somefolder/someotherfolder/stopwas.bat");
