Hello,
I am trying to call a custom app from workflow in M-Files (from vbcript). Version of M-Files is 21.6.10322.8.
So, I created new console application (ConsoleApp1) in Visual Studio 2019
namespace ConsoleApp1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("TEST");
// code below writeline never gets executed from workflow
var app = new MFilesAPI.MFilesClientApplication();
var vaults = app.GetVaultConnections();
}
}
}
My intention here is to have c# code which would connect to a particular vault in M-Files and upload documents. And I have such code in this app, and that works when I start that ConsoleApp1.exe directly from Visual Studio or Windows Explorer.
In M-Files, I created workflow with one state (s1) which has VBScript:
Option Explicit
Dim objWScript
Set objWScript = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Dim objExec
Set objExec = objWScript.Exec("c:\test\ConsoleApp1.exe")
And, when I start the workflow and set state to s1, message is displayed "TEST", but after that, there is an error:

(M-Files 21.6.10322.8)
And whatever code is there, it doesn't matter, M-Files will return error and nothing else.
I repeat, ConsoleApp1.exe works great when started directly from Windows Explorer, but not from M-Files workflow.
What am I doing wrong?
