I'm using the WMI Scripting API to create a process. It works fine most of the time. However, every once in a while Win32_Process.Create fails and returns 9. The docs say 9 means "Path not found": http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa389388(VS.85).aspx The command line I'm executing is of the form: "c:\<path>\<file>.exe" foobar --did 2 --pid 4 --oid ecccc684-29df-4140-87ac-506df05aa606 The executable path is the same in cases where it works, and in cases where it doesn't. What is different are the arguments, the ids change and sometimes there are more arguments. The WMI docs also say that "The system adds a null character to the command line, trimming the string if necessary, to indicate which file was actually used." So does this mean that WMI imposes a maximum command line length? Is this the same or different than 32K character limit imposed by the Win32 CreateProcess API: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682425.aspx Does anyone have any ideas how to troubleshoot this? Thanks in advance, Josh
