Executing the start_primavera.bat file

Oracle recommends executing the start_primavera.bat file using the command prompt before running it through the scheduled task window so you can identify and resolve issues that occur after you create the batch file and python script. See Troubleshooting for common issues that can occur after you create the batch file and python script.

To run start_primavera.bat:

Browse to Start, Run.
In the Run window, enter cmd.
Select OK to open the command prompt.
Enter the following:
p6home\scripts\start_primavera.bat

where p6home is the home directory for one of the P6 EPPM applications. For example: C:\p6home

Notes:
- Each Java process that loads should run under the SYSTEM account.
- Later, if the start_primavera.bat file is not run automatically through the scheduled task, you can run it directly or run it manually using the Windows Task Scheduler.
