I can't open a remote program.

[Guest Mikel]

Hello

 

I have a windows 2003 server and when I connect with my computer (Windows

Xp) from Remote Desktop, I can't open a program automatically in the server.

 

Example: in Windows XP I have the connection to server and in the tag

Programs -(mark) the option Begin wiht the program - I write:

 

c:\program.exe

 

(under)

 

c:\

 

When I connect with ther server, it put a message on the screen "...error

193. It don't begin the program".

 

What the matter with it?

 

Thanks for all

Re: I can't open a remote program.

 

System error 193 has description:

ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT

%1 is not a valid Win32 application.

 

so maybe the problem is with the application itself, and not the

way you try to start it?

Logon to the console of the TS and check if you can start the

application there.

 

Also make sure that the path is correct, and put the whole path in

quotes if it contains spaces, like:

 

"C:\Program Files\MyApp\myapp.exe"

 

You might want to test the functionality of the Starting

application function in the rdp client by starting notepad.
