[AG-DEV] Access Grid 3.0 Release Available

[Andrew A Rowley]

Hi,

I installed this, and it worked, but vic and rat were not starting in the venue.  I found that the Logs contained the line
    "%1 is not a valid application"

On looking in AccessGrid\Platform\win32\ProcessManager.py I found that the problem was that while the arguments with spaces were put in inverted commas, the same was not true for the command.

So I added:
if command.find(" ") != -1:
    command = '"' + command + '"'

to the start of the StartProcess function (line 46).  This seems to make it work again.

Andrew :)
