int rtn;
       Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process prcs = rt.exec(cmdText);

function fullBackup return pls_integer as

How to execute .bat file within pl/sql block

Hi,
I want to execute a batch file (.bat) file withing a pl/sql procedure. Please guide me for it.
Regards

There are several possible ways to make a call-out from a PL/SQL program to the OS on the database server (but not to the client computer).
You could use java or an external procedure (you'll need to code it in C) for example.
You might be able to make use of UTL_HTTP to talk HTTP to another server or UTL_TCP to talk TCP to another server.
What is it you are trying to do?

Problem executing .bat file from within Java class

I'm stumped: I have no problem executing a .bat file that sets classpaths and executes a Java jar, but when I try to execute other executables first and then the .jar, my application hangs and since the DOS box doesn't come up over my GUI, I can't see what's going on.
This works:
public void execute() throws Exception {
String s = "c:\\cs47auxs\\omnijar\\omni.bat";
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("\"" + s + "\"");
p.waitFor();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame,
"The Database Has Been Successfully Reloaded.",
"Information Message",
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
Here's the .bat 'omni.bat'
set JAVA_HOME=c:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\bin
%JAVA_HOME%\java -jar C:\CS47AUXS\OMNILOADJAR\OmniLoad.jar
This doesn't work:
public void execute() throws Exception {
String s = "c:\\cs47auxs\\omnijar\\jobomni.bat";
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("\"" + s + "\"");
p.waitFor();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame,
"The Database Has Been Successfully Reloaded.",
"Information Message",
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
Here's the .bat file 'jobomni.bat'
SET NETX_HOME=C:\CS47AUXS
SET COBOL_HOME=C:\CS47AUXS\OFFLINE
CD %NETX_HOME%
CALL SET-NETX.CMD
CD %COBOL_HOME%
SSBPPC10 JOBOMNI X
SET JH=C:\J2SDK1.4.2_04\BIN
SET OMNI_HOME=C:\CS47AUXS\OMNILOADJAR
CD %OMNI_HOME%
%JH%\java -jar omniload.jar
Can anyone shed some light here? Even when I execute the application from the command line the new DOS box doesn't become visible nor can I see any errors. If I could just get that visibility, I could probably figure out what is going wrong.

Same problem with me as well.... Badly looking for a solution...
I predict the following:
- If your batch file has pretty less number of dos/shell commands then it gets executed fine with exec() and proc.waitFor();
- If you increase the number of dos/shell commands in the bat file then try executing it then it definately hangs at proc.waitFor();
Even "cmd.exe /C C:\\test.bat" hangs... if the commands are more...
Is this some sort of bug? or am i doing anything wrong? I tried searching for solution on the net and search forums... but couldnt find a solution for the same.. not sure where i missed, what i missed...
Incase some one finds a solution.. do post it here...

How to execute *.BAT file from the Java Application

Can u give the code of that two-four line,please
Wating four your replay.
Yours Friend
Bhavin Shah.....

pr = rt.exec("cmd.exe /c start " + yourProgramName)The exec() method executes the command you specify in the argument and returns a process. In this example, it's telling Windows to run "yourProgramName".

Executing bat files from another location

Hi
In my application i need to execute a bat file which is in another location.
i have my class file in c:\ds and i want to execute the bat file in c:\ds\src\jython.
This is the code i have used
private void executeBootstrapBat(){
String cmd=null;
cmd="cmd /c bootstrap C:\\DS\\HelperApplication\\src\\conf\\wsadmin-local.properties" +
" " + getXmlFileName() + " " + getVOB();
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
try{
Process pt = rt.exec(cmd);
}catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}

You can execute the bat file in any location. Butyou
have to set the classpath in that location whereyou
are executing the bat file.Please stop giving advice on this site. You do not
have any clue what you are talking about at all.Actually I just went looked at a few more of your posts. All complete rubbish. Again please stop posting replies on this site until you get some clue about anything. It is very wrong of you to post replies like you know what you are doing and misleading those who don't know any better.

Creating windows .bat file from within an oracle .prc or .sql file

I am currently converting a series of batch jobs on a windows server to use an Oracle db rather than a MS sql server db. In ms sql, I could call \mssql80\binn\isql and it allowed me to pass in .prc files and have a .bat file returned. the .bat file is then executed in the calling bat to set variable value returned in the sql call...
I am thinking I can spool a bat file, however, i do not know how to populate this file with the literals and query values needed to create the bat file which sets values used for further processing in the original calling bat file...
Does that make sense? any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
There can be various ways to do this.
First and simple way is simply spooling out the batch file. Suppose you have a .sql file with all the queries, run the .sql from DOS prompt like this,
c:\> sqlplus -s username/password@tnsname @mysqlfile.sql
the contents of mysqlfile.sql can be,
rem ---------------------
set echo off feedback off head off
spool c:\batch_files\mybatch.bat
select 'start \w ' || win_app_name from mytable ;
spool off
rem ----------------------
exit
So, you can get the batch file created with desired name in desired directory. The '-s' mentioned in the sqlplus command is important.
There is another difficult/tedious way, but that can give you exact output. With UTL_FILE package you can write an operating system file from pl/sql code, stored procedure/package. Its look more like C-language code, but is usefull. So, write a sql or stored procedure and create the batch file. For that matter, you can write any type of file, just you can write whatever you want to a file.
Cheers

Running bat-files from Java

Hello,
I have been trying to launch a bat-file from my Java code, running under windows, but with no success.
Here is my simple code:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {
"C:\\temp\\test.bat"
});This does nothing at all and generates no exception. Any suggestions?

It seems java has a real problem with this... if you
want to run another java program, for instance, you
cannot do that either with String cmd="cmd.exe /C
java myProgram"
I need to pass parameters from one program into the
program I'm going to open using java, that is why I
need to call it from my first program. It can open
executables and shortcuts, but has a real big problem
doing things with the command line.No it doesn't have a problem with it. You just must be doing something wrong. By the way, since "java(.exe)" is already an executable, there's little value in wrapping that by the "cmd.exe" shell (unless you want to use the command shell for some reason such as passing the redirector (>) symbols to it to let it redirect stdout / stderr to a file)

Executing a .bat file from java code

Im writing a utility and i need to be able to create and execute a .bat file from my program. I can create the .bat file fine but when i try to execute it nothing happens. I tried to use the following line of code to try to execute the .bat file (called make.bat) :
try
String parameterString = "\"C:\\WINNT\\System32\\cmd.exe\" C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println(e);
The Runtime.getRuntime()exec() method worked fine when trying to execute an excel file but for some reason it dosen't want to work for the DOS prompt. Any ideas?

Thanks everyone for all the replies.
I have tried all the above with no luck. Im using netbeans, does anyone think that it could be a problem with the IDE.
I tired the following code :
String parameterString = "cmd.exe /C \"C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat\"";
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
This code does not throw any exceptions but just hangs. I also tried:
String [] parameterString = {"cmd", "/c", "C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat"};
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
and:
String parameterString = "\"C:\\WINNT\\System32\\cmd.exe\" \"C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat\"";
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
with the same result. Does anyone know why it just hangs and nothing happens (no exceptions thrown)?

How can I execute a .bat file from inside a java application

I have a .bat file which contains an executable file(.exe) and some input and output file names. What commands can I use to execute this bat file from my java application.

After raeding tkleisas' reply; i am trying to invoke another application (which can be invoked from the command line) by using a batch file and trying Runtime.exec for executing a batch file.
My current code is:
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process trialProcess;
trialProcess = runtime.exec("cmd.exe /C start C:\\guns.bat /B");
And my guns.bat looks like:
cd C:\CALPUFF
echo trial
start calpuff.exe CALPUFF.INP
This is not working for me and i get the following in the error stream of the trialProcess:
Error :
The system cannot execute the specified program.
Process finished with exit code 1
Has anyone come across something like this and know what's wrong with this one??
thnx

Running .bat files from java code

Dear Forum,
I have seen numerous postings on the web about this question, still I have found no answer that works (for me)
I�m trying to run a simple .bat file from a piece of java code , however it does not work. No error message , but still.
Does anyone have a tip?
best regards
temuj
try{
String cmd = "cmd.exe C:\\mybat.bat";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
catch(IOException e){System.out.println("ERROR: "+e);}Message was edited by:
temujin

"cmd.exe C:\mybat.bat" is being passed to the OS for execution
what happens when in a terminal/dos window you execute letter for letter:
cmd.exe C:\mybat.bat
The output will be identical to what is happening when java makes this call.
