SQL Server: Enable xp_cmdshell using sp_configure

The xp_cmdshell option is a server configuration option that enables system administrators to control whether the xp_cmdshell extended stored procedure can be executed on a system.

---- To allow advanced options to be changed.

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1

GO

—- To update the currently configured value for advanced options.

RECONFIGURE

GO

—- To enable the feature.

EXEC sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', 1

GO

—- To update the currently configured value for this feature.

RECONFIGURE

GO

Now you can execute cmd script by using xm_cmdshell,

EXECUTE master..xp_cmdshell 'C:\AAT_PDF_Thumbnail_Generator\test.bat'

-- this can execute a bat file

-- try this command to create a new directory

exec xp_cmdshell 'MD "d:\test2"'

 

Tips: if you get errors like this:

Msg 15123, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure, Line 50
