How to specify file paths in external commands? [message #1030454]

I use Jubula on Windows 7.

I created a test step with the following parameter values:

Component type: 'Application'
Action type: 'Execute External Command'
Command [String]: 'echo test > "C:\temp\ab\test.txt"'

The file test.txt was created in the folder C:\temp\ab

Then I renamed this folder to "C:\temp\a b" and changed the command value accordingly:
Command [String]: 'echo test > "C:\temp\a b\test.txt"'

The file wasn't created.
Don't I escape anything right? The command is surrounded with single quotas so that all special characters shouldn't cause any problems...

Hi Denis,
When I test the external command,I create an .bat file, and the parameter Command is set to the absolute path of the .bat file.I wish this will be helpful for you.

After I understood that I did nothing wrong I created a .bat file too. Just don't use paths which contain spaces.
