Question

I have two different batch files at two different path. When I call A.bat from B.bat, the batch file that i called(A.bat) doesn’t work. When i double click to A.bat it works fine. I think the problem is the path. However, I always use full paths. Why it doesn’t work?
All i want is to extract my file.

B.batch

call "C:\Documents and Settings\A.bat"

A.batch

SET earfile="E:\bee\deployments\sny1\SnyEarTest.ear"
SET winrar_exe="C:\.....\winrar.exe"
SET war_file="C:\...."

%winrar_exe% e -o+ %earfile% %war_file% 

When i extract my war_file from the path that A.bat exist then my war_file is extracted into path B. Is there any solution to solve my problem?

Answer 1

It should work.

Add pause to the end of B.bat so you can see any error messages before the window closes.

add a cd /d path at the top of B.bat to specify the folder in which the EAR file is decompressed.
