How to run a shell script from the GUI?
This is probably a dumb question...
How do I run a shell script from the GUI? I've been told to double click it but when I do, it opens as a text file.
The behavior you describe is that used by the KDE and GNOME desktops of Linux.
Under OS X, if you make a script then mark it as executable, double-clicking on it in the Finder will not execute it. Actually, it uses a rather complex algorithm ([summarized here|http://arstechnica.com/reviews/2q00/macos-qna/macos-x-qa-2.html]) to determine what to do with it. This is implemented in Mac OS X' LaunchServices framework (incidentally, the associations are cached in /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices*.csstore and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple/LaunchServices*.csstore). You can read the details in the developer docs about LaunchServices.
Anyway, in short, the suffix '.command' is a built-in type in the LaunchServices network that identifies a shell script. If you run
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServic es.framework/Support/lsregister -dump
... it will tell you as much.

How I run a shell script from the scheduler on 10.2.0.2.0 ?
Hello Oracle People,
I'd like to run a shell script from the Scheduler in my 10g database.
Right now it is a simple shell script.
Eventually it will wrap RMAN commands to back up my DB.
I wrote a simple pl/sql script to create a job:
-- cr_job10.sql
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
job_name => 'my_backup_job',
job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
job_action => '/h/oracle/scripts/tst.sh',
start_date => '06-SEP-07 5.33.00PM US/Pacific',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY',
end_date => '08-SEP-07 4.00.00PM US/Pacific',
enabled => TRUE,
comments => 'My Backup Job');
END;
I see no errors when I run the above procedure.
I checked DBA_SCHEDULER_JOBS and the job is in there.
The scheduler, though, errors out with an error which I see in a trace file:
/h/oracle/admin/orcl/bdump/orcl_j000_22396.trc

ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job 53267
ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: 274662
I googled on this:
ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: 274662
Google returned only 1 hit.
There, I see some evidence that I need to configure something inside
of Oracle to run shell scripts from the scheduler, but possibly just
for machines running windows. I'm running Solaris.
Do any of you know what I need to configure inside of Oracle to
run shell scripts from the scheduler?
-OwenHello people,
I should have added this bit of information:
"The script runs fine from oracle's crontab."
"The script runs fine from a shell owned by oracle."
I'm getting responses telling me to check my env variables and permissions
which would be helpful to a UNIX novice.
I have a feeling that no one is using the scheduler to run RMAN scripts.
Tim Hall suggested I take a close look at these files:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/extJob
Currently I'm setup like this:
bash sol root /h/oracle/product/10r2/bin 31 #
bash sol root /h/oracle/product/10r2/bin 31 # ll $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora
-rw-r--r-- 1 root dba 52 Sep 7 15:29 /h/oracle/product/10r2/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora

Jared points out that rman needs access to extproc:
$ ls -la /h/oracle/product/10r2/bin/extproc
-rwsr-x--- 1 rman dba 34468 Sep 21 2006 /h/oracle/product/10r2/bin/extproc

Here is a demo of rman running his script:
bash sol root /h/oracle/product/10r2/bin 35 # su - rman
Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.10 Generic January 2005
$
$
$ ls

$
$ scripts/tst.sh
$
$
$ cat scripts/tst.sh
#! /bin/sh

exit 0
$
$
$ cat /tmp/tst.sh.out.txt
Fri Sep 7 16:31:23 PDT 2007
$
$ rm /tmp/tst.sh.out.txt
$
I am focused on this error:
ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: 274662
And I am focused on this exit code: 274662
What does 274662 mean?
If the Scheduler gives me an error like "274662" rather than some English,
it's obvious to me the Scheduler is a POS and I should not use it.
And of course,
If I cannot run RMAN from Oracle Scheduler, I'll use cron.

How to run unix shell script from java web applet
hi all
i have created one java applet. my apache web server is on unix server.
i have created one shell script in same directory where my .class and .htm files reside...
how to run this shell script from applet? it should search this .sh file on server and not on the client browser machine...
thanks in advanceI suppose you could make the shell script into a CGI, configure the server to execute CGIs, and then make the applet open the URL of that CGI.

Can I run a shell script from the services menu?, part II
Remember this?
It is now possible.Doesn't look like there is a direct way to do it.
The services are all Bundles, which is easy
enough to fake -- just copy one from /Library/Services
to ~/Services and modify the plist. Put your shell
script in Contents/MacOS/ and identify it in the
plist under CFBundleExecutable and hope for the
best
Where it gets sticky is CFBundlePackageType (APPL
for Application, FMWK for FrameWork, BNDL for
'loadable bundle', whatever that is] and NSServices.
CFBundlePackageType should pose no problem if Services
use the OS loader and handles file magic [and '#!' of
course].
NSServices specifies a named port that the app
listens on, the data type it receives, and so forth.
This looks a bit harder to fake. I'd bet Applescript
has the functionality, and there may be some
command-line hooks to backend that, or it may be
possible to netcat your way through it.
But it doesn't look trivial
Property List Key Reference
Anyways, tried it with a quick script that echoes to a
file, and haven't figured out how to refresh the
Services menu to get it to appear. Probably have
to NetInfo it or something ridiculous; doesn't appear
to watch the FS.

How to run a unix script from oracle warehouse Builder
Hi,
can any one share the information about, running the unix script or scripts using oracle warehouse builder.
Regards,
AkOne way is define a workflow. Inside the workflow you put
1)an external process that "points to" the shell script and then
2)put the mapping
The external process must have the "COMMAND" parameter set to the name of the shell script. If the script has parameters you must put them in the "PARAMETERS LIST" separated by "?" (for example, ?par1?par2).
The path where OWB executes the external process I think is the ORACLE_HOME of the OWB.
f you don't use workflow, you can try with this more complex solution. I tried with 9i and OWB 9.2 and it's working well.
You create an autonomous procedure (within a package or not) :
CREATE PROCEDURE Extract_Email_List
DECLARE
PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION;
And use the sys.shell script that you need your dba/unix admin to install first of all, with a call like that.
sys.shell('sh ' || txt_dir_name || '/send_email_marketing.sh ' || txt_dir_name || ' ' || email_addr );
Then you import your procedure into OWB and use it in your mapping with the "pre-mapping" icon (you can set parameters for your proc with constants if you want).
To implement sys.shell, go to metalink and find "Note:168065.1" - "How to call a UNIX shell script from PL/SQL".
Once it's done once, it's not so bad. But I would still recommend the workflow approach also..
I hope this helps. -
Run Unix command / Run Unix shell script from Forms9i
Hi,
I have a requirement to run Unix command and Unix shell scripts from Forms9i.
I know HOST command cannot be used directly. I also know we can create some JAVA stored procedure to perform the task, but I don't want to create any JAVA stored procedure as there are some security concerns.
Please point me towards any other way to achieve the same.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
KumarThere is no reason why HOST can't be used. This is what it is for. As for using Java, it is not a stored procedure that you would be using, it would be imported Java (imported into the form).
The best way to use the HOST command is to call a script (.sh) rather than calling a Unix command directly. This is because HOST will not pick up environment variables set at the system level. So the script would first need to set the necessary environment variables then call the desired commands. -
Hi,
Is there a way that we can run a shell script on UNIX box from ORACLE FORMS 4.5 running on client PC (OS=windows on client,
DB on unix).
Thanks in advance for help<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Anton Weindl ([email protected]):
You can either use rsh or rexec (both available on windows). You will have to edit the .rhosts in the home directory of the unix user the script will be run under:
<Client-Hostname> <USER>
<USER> must match the Windows-User exactly.
You can then execute the Shell-Script with
host('rsh <HOST> -l <USER> sh <SCRIPT>',NO_SCREEN)
Hope that helps

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Thank You Anton Weindl,
It seems like the thing I want to use instead of the dbms_pipe.
I tried to use rsh and gives me the following message
command: "rsh taurus -l nileshs test.sh"
where taurus is hostname and
guest is unix username
I am logged on windows 2000 with this name.
"taurus permission denied:"
"rsh can't establish connection"
Let me know if I am missing anything.
Thanks.

Running Shell scripts from the desktop
Hi,
I'm from the UNIX world rather than the mac one so have written a number of shell scripts. Lets call them foo.sh and bar.bash for the sake of argument.
These are sitting in a folder on my desktop
I can happily open a terminal session and run the scripts - and they work as I expect them to.
If I open a Finder window and double click on the icons for the scripts what happens is that it opens TextEdit.
Theres two things I'd like to change
A. I'd like to change the behaviour so that the scripts run when I double clike them rather than opening an editor (possibly in a terminal window )
B. I'd like to be able to change the editor from TextEdit to one I'm more used to...(I've installed Vim/Gvim which I quite like).
A. - Haven't managed to get anywhere trying to solve this....
B. - So far my attempts have got as far as...
1...
right-click -> open with -> Other -> select vim.app
tick Always open as
click open
The file then opens in a vim window.
however if I now close the vim application and double clike the file icon then the file opens in TextEdit again
2...
Right Click -> Get Info -> Open with VIM -> add -> Change all
message appears
'Are you sure you want to change all your Vimm.app documents to open with the application "vim.app"
This change will apply to all Vim.app documents with extension ".sh" '
click continue
In the Info pane the 'Open with' selection widget immediately changes to say 'Open with: TextEdit.app'
So I'm a bit stumped, can you help!
Regards
Mark
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.3)Thanks to both people who answered.
You both gave me useful workarounds to my problem.
Renaming the scripts to be 'foo.command' was very hepful and useful to know. I tried this and it does indeed work. I may use this in the future.
I also had a play around with applescript and the automator to achieve similar results.
I agree that double clicking to run the file and also edit it is mutually exlcusive - I'm sort of trying to work out how I could make it do 'either/or' as I choose. In the Windows world i'd have the option of setting 'open' to run the script (assuming I'd got cygwin installed and had assiciated it) OR 'Edit with vim' if I wanted to edit the file (assuming vim was installed!).
Unresolved issue is that I'm still unable to get VIM to be associated with a .sh file.
The way I would envisage it working in Mac world would be to be able to right click on foo.sh -> Open with... and have a list to select from immediately there like..
Text Edit
Vim
Terminal (default)
and be able to somehow add and remove apps from the list and change which is the default.
My issue is that I don't seem to know how to get other apps than TextEdit to appear in the list - I suspect I need a better understanding of how these file/application associations work and are configured.

How to run a Unix Script from a specific user
Hi,
I want to run a GoldenGate related unix script from a super user. I have created crontab enter from that super user. But its still running from root user. As GGSCI cannot be invoked other than super user, the Script is failing.
The Script is running fine on command prompt and from "at" batch job command.
Please give me a way to run the script from a specific user on Cron
Thanks,
SaravanaHi.
can you show:
grep root /etc/passwd
grep <super user> /etc/passwd (It's not clear for me, what you call super user. For me - root is super user. )
ls -la /var/spool/cron/crontabs
Generaly for add cronjobs for any user need:
crontab -e <username>
