I have a batch file which starts a Java server class. The output of the Java is redirected to a log file. This batch file is stared via a windows service. Problem is this log file is becoming very huge. Since the Java server is running, it is not possible to do any modification in the Log file as it is locked. How can I create a new log file for every day?
My idea was to write another batch file which will stop the service, backup the existing log file, delete and start the service file again. Is this approach correct?
java -Xms32m -Xmx256m gtServer >> abclog.txt
Above is the code in the batch file which starts the sever
Any tips on how we could back up the file without stopping the java server?
Thanks in advance

Heard about log4j?
Ok, seriously, would it be possible to use some proper logging facility? It usually provides something for this purpose like RollingFileAppender.

I want to flush redis server through batch file so I am trying to create batch file with following command but it doesn't work for me.
SET REDIS_PATH=C:\Redis
"%REDIS_PATH%\redis-cli" FLUSHALL
Solved My self. I have created a shortcut to desktop and edited properties.
There are bat files on some servers that we have. I have Winform app that can view directory files and executables on different server. Is there a way that (based on the selected bat file), to be be able to run that bat file on that server from the Winform app.
Not in the way you are thinking. If you run a batch file from your machine (via app or manually) it runs locally on your machine, not on the remote server.
If you can install software, PsExec maybe be a good fit. If not, I have a couple of options I can think of.
Alternatives: create an app that runs on the server that knows when to run the batch files (via messaging, database records, etc) or use the Windows Task Scheduler.
The Task Scheduler approach is fairly simple. You could have the batch files set to run every one minute and at the start of the batch file, you do a file check. Your WinForm would create that file and at the end of the batch (if the file existed at the start) it would delete the file that triggers the batch.
What would be the best way to execute a specified batch script that are located on a server from my local machine?
I tried using PHP, and I had admin issues. I need something that can specify what batch needs execute, enter it then the batch file will get executed on my server.
Could you give some examples, or any site that works?
Thanks in advance! :)
What is the default SSIS Account that is used in SSIS packages.
In one of my packages I have a Data Flow task that creates a flat file. A BAT file later runs and creates a file based on information in that .txt file. If I execute the .BAT in Windows Explorer it runs fine. When SSIS tries to execute it I can see the CMD window open and it tries to access the txt file and isnt able to. Says "Unable to access nameoffile.txt"
I assume the issue is that the permissions are probably inherited by the SSIS user account so I am trying to figure out which account that is.
If you are running it from the IDE then it uses your permissions. Most likely the problem is that your file is locked by some other process in your SSIS package. To verify:
Add a PAUSE to your batch file to make it wait for any key.
Run your package. While the dos prompt is waiting, go into windows explorer and run your batch file again - you'll find the same error.
I changed the attrib value in dos for that specific folder by attrib -r -s and it worked. It thought it was read-only.
I am using Windows Server 2012 server, with a SQL Server 2012 database.
Adding Modify, Read, Write permissions to the folder containing the required file to the NETWORK SERVICE user seems to work for me.
I'm trying to figure out how I can use a batch file to launch Internet Explorer as a local user on the system hosting the batch file. Ideally I'd like to be able to double click the batch file and not have to enter user credentials. To break it down a bit:
User is logged onto the host system with a domain user (Server 2008 R2 Standard 64bit)
User can then double click on a batch file that will launch Internet Explorer as a local user on the host system, without prompting for the local user credentials
All I can find is information about NET USE, any help would be greatly appreciated!
"runas" command was intentionally designed to prompt for password. So, that is not your solution.
One of option is to create a scheduled task where you can store the password (safely) and run the scheduled task from batch file.
But if the batch file is distributable and not going to be run on same machine.. you may have to investigate on how to create a schedule task from batch file and then run it.
