[EnergyPlus_Support] RunEplus.bat problems

["lmblanes@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear modellers

I am developing some code to run energy plus as a console applications.
My code in python calls RunEplus.bat using "os.system" python command module with two arguments: (1) idf_filename and (2) epw_filename.

I noticed that using windows I had to give RunEplus.bat filenames without extensions and I also had to use absolute path in order to get that executable running.

I am sorted now with this. However, after implementing my code, when I run the same function calling two different idf files, RunEplus.bat behaves differently. While for one idf file it runs OK, for the other one it still generates a pathname starting with "ExampleFile/whateverfile.."

If I try the same script in isolation using another folder etc, it runs perfectly.

If the code is exactly the same and generates the same command calls, why it behaves differently.
I didn't modify the RunEplus.bat file and I reinstalled E+ again.

Any idea of what can be wrong?

Best Regards
