Email alerts give me a headache

[garry r fisher]

Hi,

Simple tcl script as below. Works fine running from the command line but won’t run from an alert. I’ve set it up to ‘exec emailer.htc’ but when I activate the alert I get the error “Unable to CreateProcess: emailer.htc

I’ve gone through the various historical entries on alerts and this looks correct but obviously isn’t!

Help please.

Cloverleaf 5.4.1 on W2003

Thanks

Garry

Garry, looks like you are doing this from windows?   Try “exec (path-to-hcitcl.exe) emailer.htc”

Thanks Rob,

I’ll give that a try. I’ve put the file in the HCIROOTbin directory so shouldn’t this get picked up anyway?

Hi,

In order to get email alerts working I ended up using bmail. I will revisit tclMail in the future and report on my efforts.
