Win32 exception in C# application

Question

I am using the following code:

Process process = new Process();
ProcessStartInfo info = new ProcessStartInfo(@"java -jar path\Ontologizer.jar  -g   path\go.obo  -a   path\gene_association.fb  -m Benjamini-Hochberg -c Parent-Child-Intersection -p   path\back.txt  -s   path\genes.txt  -o path\outfull.txt");

process.StartInfo = info;
process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();
process.Dispose();

I get a Win32 exception:

The system cannot find the file specified

How can I fix this problem?

You probably have an error in your PATH environment variable. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12392913/process-start-and-path-environment-variable — CodeCaster, Oct 17 '15 at 18:38
The error message is pretty clear, so it's clearly an issue with either the `path` or one of the filenames. We can't see your machine from where we are to figure out which one for you. — Ken White, Oct 17 '15 at 18:40
@CodeCaster I think I don't. When I copy and paste the processStartInfo to the command line everything works correctly. That's why I don't understand what's wrong — user2080209, Oct 17 '15 at 18:41
First argument for `ProcessStartInfo` constructor is a **file name**. And you file name is very weird. — user4003407, Oct 17 '15 at 18:42
@PetSerAl When I leave only "java -jar path\Ontologizer.jar" I get the same error — user2080209, Oct 17 '15 at 18:45
@PetSerAl it looks like it'd be worth putting your comments into an answer. — Wai Ha Lee, Oct 17 '15 at 20:01

First argument of ProcessStartInfo constructor should be file name only. All arguments to application should be putted into second argument of ProcessStartInfo constructor:

new ProcessStartInfo("java", @"-jar path\Ontologizer.jar  -g   path\go.obo  -a   path\gene_association.fb  -m Benjamini-Hochberg -c Parent-Child-Intersection -p   path\back.txt  -s   path\genes.txt  -o path\outfull.txt");
