JBoss service (??) very weird problem

[joshua883]

Hello !
I really hope I'm posting on the right forum: my idea is that I'm having problem becuase of JBoss as service:
so that's it: I have an MBean which opens up a Word Document when it's available in a certain directory.

Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec
 ("cmd.exe /C \"C:\\Programmi\\Microsoft Office\\Office\\winword.exe\ mydoc.doc"");

Until now it worked correctly.
Now since I have installed JBoss as service Word is not launched any more....I haven't changed anything else so I believe the problem is connected with jBoss as a service.

Any idea?
thanks a lot

What user credentials does the service run as? You can check this in the Windows Services Panel -> Your JBoss Service -> LogOn tab. Does that user have appropriate rights to run the exe?

yes as jaikiran said, check in the control Panel-->services. You must check "Allow service to interact with the Desktop"
