Need to execute *.exe in server from ASP.net

UPDATE: I managed to solve the issue after many weeks. Thank you all for your contribution. Apparently IIS does not load windows user profiles by default. So when running as a different user who is not logged on, their windows profile must be loaded by IIS. In advanced setting menu of your app pool, there is an option "load windows profile" I just changed this to true. In prior versions of IIS, this was set to 'true' by default.

You can use Process.Start

Process process = new Process();process.StartInfo.FileName = "CVS.exe";process.StartInfo.Arguments = "if any";process.Start();

There is also a post about running processes as another user in asp.net:

Supplying user credential

In short it says that you must redirect the process, with code like this:

ProcessStartInfo info = new ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe");info.UseShellExecute = false;info.RedirectStandardInput = true;info.RedirectStandardError = true;info.RedirectStandardOutput = true;info.UserName = dialog.User; // see the link mentioned at the topinfo.Password = dialog.Password;using (Process install = Process.Start(info)){      string output = install.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();      install.WaitForExit();      // Do something with you output data      Console.WriteLine(output);}
