Good command-line but Batch conversion not working?

Hey
I have this command that works and does exactly what I need. But I noticed that when I try to convert it to files automatically (I wrote a GUI for this purpose) a problem arises.
My command looks as follows.
When it executes this command using CMD everything works fine.
However, when I use my program or a bat file with this command (I made a test to rule out a malfunction of my program), I get this message
Pasting this command directly in the DOS console causes the SourceFile.tif file to be processed correctly and no error message appears. Why?
