windows - Open Excel on Jenkins CI -


i working on windows 7 (logged in session no.1), jenkins ci running windows service in session 0. problem is.. want open excel file through jenkins ci in session 0, want display gui on session 1.

i know session 0 isolated in windows 7, possible run process in session 0 , output in session? please help.

edit:
took little trial , error, worked me (windows 7 64-bit).

  • download pstools microsoft site
  • we need psexec.exe, can extract everything. extract location accessible jenkins, preferably without spaces in path.
  • open elevated command prompt: type cmd start's quicksearch, right click cmd.exe, select run administrator.
  • type c:\path\to\psexec.exe -accepteula , press enter.
  • type c:\path\to\psexec.exe -i 1 cmd , press enter. (if see command prompt appear, good, close now)
  • in job configuration, configure execute windows batch command step
  • write following:
    c:\path\to\psexec.exe -accepteula && c:\path\to\psexec.exe -i 1 cmd /c start c:\progra~2\microso~1\path\to\excel.exe

where:

  • c:\path\to full path psexec.exe, unless in %path%
  • -i 1 session id want launch in.
  • c:\progra~2\microso~1\path\to full path excel.exe without spaces. since office installations going under paths spaces, "program files (x86), have figure out short path, or place somewhere without spaces.
  • having excel.exe under %path% , working regular command line was not enough.

a little explanation care:

  • psexec needs install services first. that, needs run elevated command prompt first time. one-time installation step.
  • to make psexec work, need accept eula prompt. done per session/user. if run psexec -accepteula in command prompt, doesn't when jenkins service (running local system in session 0) tries use it. therefore, have place jenkins job, along command. technically, needs there once, , can removed afterwards, doesn't hurt keep there.
  • i've used cmd /k , running command local cmd prompt debug. made me realize couldn't find way escape spaces (tried various quoting), had resort short file names. note short file names not required, escape spaces.
