Service hangs up at WaitForExit after calling batch file

by

Here is what i use to execute batch files:

proc.StartInfo.FileName                 = target;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError    = true;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput   = true;
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute          = false;

proc.Start();

proc.WaitForExit
    (
        (timeout <= 0)
            ? int.MaxValue : timeout * NO_MILLISECONDS_IN_A_SECOND *
                NO_SECONDS_IN_A_MINUTE
    );

errorMessage = proc.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
proc.WaitForExit();

outputMessage = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
proc.WaitForExit();

I don’t know if that will do the trick for you, but I don’t have the problem of it hanging.
