I see. I tested this in 6.0, where it works. Might be a problem related to 5.11.

That's exactly what I did in the first place.

# Code calling XSIBATCH

import sys
sys.path.append( r'\\linuxserver\animation\xsi\workgroup_animation\data\scripts' )
sys.path.append( r'\\linuxserver\animation\db\ts\ts_workgroup\data\scripts' )
import os

sScriptFile = r'C:\Softimage\workgroups\ts_workgroup\data\scripts\ts_pipeline\ts_addpogeogroups.py'
sAbsModelFile = 'salut'

sCommand = 'C:/Softimage/XSI_5.11/Application/bin/XSIBatch.bat -script %s -lang Python -main addPOGeoGroups -args - sabsmodelfile "%s"' % (sScriptFile, sAbsModelFile)
os.system( sCommand )




# ts_addpogeogroups.py

def addPOGeoGroups( sabsmodelfile ):
    import win32com
    Application = win32com.client.Dispatch( 'XSI.Application' )
    xsi = Application.application
    xsi.logmessage( sabsmodelfile )






# Output:

COMMAND: -script C:\Softimage\workgroups\ts_workgroup\data\scripts\ts_pipeline\ts_addpogeogroups.py -lang Python -main addPOGeoGroups -args -sabsmodelfile "salu t"
#ERROR : Traceback (most recent call last):

# - [line 4294967295]
ERROR - Script failed.

So it's -args, -arg1, -<argument name>, <argument value>, -arg2, -<argument name>, <argument value>?
Same thing:

COMMAND: -script C:\Softimage\workgroups\ts_workgroup\data\scripts\ts_pipeline\ts_addpogeogroups.py -lang Python -main addPOGeoGroups -args -arg1 -sAbsModelFile salut
#ERROR : Traceback (most recent call last):
#TypeError: addPOGeoGroups() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)
# - [line 4294967295]
ERROR - Script failed.
FATAL - Script Aborted.



Unless I've misunderstood your post? If you meant with -sAbsModelFile that it should be the actual argument value....
-args -arg1 -<argument value> -arg2 -<argument value>


COMMAND: -script C:\Softimage\workgroups\ts_workgroup\data\scripts\ts_pipeline\ts_addpogeogroups.py -lang Python -main addPOGeoGroups -args -arg1 -salut
#ERROR : Traceback (most recent call last):
#TypeError: addPOGeoGroups() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)
# - [line 4294967295]
ERROR - Script failed.
FATAL - Script Aborted.



Using XSI 5.11 btw.

It seems you miss the -arg1 tag

Try

-script C:\Softimage\workgroups\ts_workgroup\data\scripts\ts_pipeline\ts_addpogeogroups.py -lang Python -main addPOGeoGroups -args -arg1 -sAbsModelFile
