Hi @Yogesh Pathak,

Have you checked to see if there are other instances of cmd.exe running at the same time? If there are, that could interfere with being able to attach to the right one.

Cheers,

Thanks @vivek.kumar.goel..!!

I didn't get your point that how could be screenshot of attach action will help, can you plz elaborate it.
I'm using cmd.exe to login different platform by passing the credentials. After passing the credentials, the existing window getting closed and a new cmd.exe window is launched which we need to attach for proceeding further but unable to do so.

Please help in finding the solution.

@Yogesh Pathak,

I tried both attaching to and launching a command prompt via App Modeller, but neither seemed to work.

Thinking about this a little further, do you really need to do this via App Modeller? Assuming what you're trying to do is just execute specific commands via the command line couldn't you use the Start Process action of the Environment VBO?

Cheers,

So are you stuck at the first step passing the credentials or the second step after passing the credentials?
