Run System commands

Thanks for your answer. So here is my template:

---

# JDL – Job Description language
# Template file for Muster 5.0, applies to Maya 7.0+ supported engines

# Basic template declaration, specify job string identifier and unique ID

DECLARE TEMPLATE
{

SET TEMPLATE_NAME “Windows Command”
SET TEMPLATE_DESC “Perform a windows command”
SET TEMPLATE_UID 999
SET TEMPLATE_LOGIC SINGLE
SET DEFAULT_PRIORITY 1
SET DEFAULT_POOL “Entire Farm”
SET MAXIMUM_LICENSES 0
}

DECLARE SINGLE
{

}

DECLARE SUBMISSION
{
SET ENABLE_ADDITIONAL_FLAGS 0
ADD THECOMMAND STRING_INPUT “String” “Full Command” ACTIVABLE MANDATORY
}

DECLARE ENGINE_WIN
{
SET PLATFORM_ENABLED 1
SET ENABLE_ERROR_CHECK 1
SET ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT 1
SET COMMAND_LINE “/c %ATTR(THECOMMAND)”
SET EXECUTABLE “%ATTR(CMDEXECUTABLE)”
SET STARTING_FOLDER “c:\”
SET ENVIRONMENT_BLOCK USER
SET DETECTION_LOGIC REALPROC

DECLARE CONFIGURABLE_TAGS
{
ADD CMDEXECUTABLE FILE_SELECTOR “c:windowssytem32cmd.exe” “NT Cmd executable” “Specify the NT Cmd executable” NOTACTIVABLE MANDATORY *.exe

}

DECLARE CUSTOM_ENVIRONMENT

}
}

DECLARE ENGINE_MAC

SET PLATFORM_ENABLED 0
SET ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT 0
}

DECLARE ERROR
{
ADD WARNING “Warning” “Warn”
ADD ERROR “Error”
ADD DEFAULT_RETCODE 0
}

Works well for me now.
Just type a usual windows command line like copy c:copyfile.txt c:copyfolder in the “Full Command” box and enter the correct IP for the machine that should perform the command.

Yeah, this was exactly the problem. I just figured it out, while you were writig.

Thanks,
