Action
Points to check
Was the file specified in the /ae parameter not an application (executable file)?
Examples of file extensions that cannot be executed: *.txt, *.wsf
Cause
The application failed to start because the specified file is not executable.
Files with the extension txt or wsf are executed by applications associated with those extensions in Windows.
If the extension is txt, "notepad.exe" will become an application name that can be executed. If the extension is wsf, "WScript.exe" will become an application name that can be executed.
Action method
Specify an application (executable file) in the /ae parameter.
Opening c:\data\data1.txt of the client "hostname" in Notepad:
#/opt/FJSVsnjss/bin/execacli hostname /ae:c:\\windows\\notepad.exe c:\\data\\data1.txt
In this case, the current directory when the application is executed will be c:\\windows.
