My problem is as follows :

The DllImport function is used to implement an extern function defined in
MyDll.dll.

    [DllImport("MyDll.dll")]
    [return:MarshalAs(UnmangedType.LPStr)]
        public static extern string strProgramActivation();

In MyDll.dll is declared as shown bellow.

    char* __stdcall strProgramActivation()
    {
        ...

        int nRes = _spawnl( _P_WAIT, MyProgram.exe, args[1], NULL);

        ...

        return ...;
    }

When _spawnl is activated MyProgram.exe is present in the taskmanager.

However MyProgram.exe doesn't start.

It seems that asp.net application dosn't allow the activated MyProgram.exe
program to execute !.

Thanks, Per
