.reset_session is an executive command; executive commands (all of the
commands that begin with a ".") can only be entered "in response to the
IDL prompt" according to the docs. You can put an executive command in a
batch file and call the file from the command line. For example, in the
file "batch_run.pro" put:

.reset_session
start_real_run ; call to your existing program

Then,

IDL> @batch_run

And it should work.
