Batch file in javascript
Hi all,
I am in the process of creating a batch file in Adobe Acrobat. I have several options that it is doing, such as applying security, watermark, etc. Now I need to add a way to delete a certain bookmark. This bookmark will have the same name in all files and needs to be deleted. Is there any way to write something like this I Javascript so I can add it to my batch file setting?
Thanks.
Steve,

How to execute a batch file using javascript
Hi,
I dont know java. i have a batch file to do my task. Im designing the front end with HTML.Can anyone tell the command to execute batchfile using javascript
Message was edited by:
viswanath_javaJava and not JavaScript are not the same thing or even close to the same thing. You appear to be in way over your head. It might be a good time to fess up to your employer that you are underqualified.
Apart from the JavaScript faux pas your question is also lacking because
- you don't identify what this batch file is or does or needs to execute in
- it is very difficult to understand how the front end for this will be HTML
It seems you may one day want something like a Servlet. But you are long way from implementing this solution. -
How to call a batch file in Mozilla using javascript
With the following code snippet
WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
WshShell.Run ("c:\\Windows\\system32\\Notepad.exe",1,true);
it is working fine, but not in Mozilla.
I want to call batch file in Mozilla using javascript.
can some body suggest on this?I found that already. Eventhough that is slightly differ from yours.

Anyhow
Thanks yarr.

Hello,
I am trying to create a batch file which will delete a certain bookmark name "References". How do I automate this? I have few other items that the batch is already doing that have already been configured. I'm thinking I need some JavaScript to delete the bookmark, but I have no idea where to start.
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
Thanks.In that case you can use this code to do it:
if (this.bookmarkRoot.children!=null) {
for (var i=0; i<this.bookmarkRoot.children.length; i++) {
if (this.bookmarkRoot.children[i].name=="References") {
this.bookmarkRoot.children[i].remove();
break; -
Hi ,
We are using OBIEE 10G
and I need to transfer folder from one machine to another machine(both are windows) so I have written a dos command (batch file). Now I need to call this batch file from IBOT ,how I can do this. any suggestion pls.Hi ,
U can use a javascript to call the batch file and attach the script to your IBOT :
For example :
<html><head><script type="text/javascript">function runApp(st) { WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell"); WshShell.Run (st,1,false);}</script></head><body><!-- Two ways to create a link to run the app. --><font onClick="runApp('file://c:/winnt/notepad.exe');" style="cursor: hand;"><u>Notepad</u></font><br><!-- Or use <a> descriptor -->Batch File</body></html> -
Hi,
How can I tell Oracle Database to run SO files, like batch files?
Thanks,
Gustavo.this will work fine in Windows. Actually it's not JavaScript, rather Java running within Oracle that calls a command or script in your OS environment, perhaps a batch file or executable.
If you follow the link, you'll see how he builds a JAVA SOURCE in Oracle and then a small function & procedure to call the Java program. Actually, much of the follow-up comments are from users running his procedure in a Windows environment. You should be able to modify his example to fit your needs.
Hope this helps. Cheers. -Kevin -
Running a java program via a batch file
I am unable to run a java program from a batch file that I created.
spiderpackage.EntryPoint is a class file which I am trying to run with a -v option to output something.What should I do to get the output?
echo ^<html^>^<body^>
echo hello^<br^>
call java spiderpackage.EntryPoint -v
echo ^</body^>^</html^>This has nothing to do with java programming. Have a look at the windows help for the call command.
The echo <html> stuff doesn't make sense. What's it for?
The command in you batch file should be:
java -cp . spiderpackage.EntryPoint -v
assuming that java is in the system path, and the EntryPoint.class is in a directory called spiderpackage which is a subdirectory of your current working directory -
Guide to External Jobs on 10g with dbms_scheduler e.g. scripts,batch files
GUIDE TO RUNNING EXTERNAL JOBS ON 10g WITH DBMS_SCHEDULER
NOTE: Users using 11g should use the new method of specifying a credential which eliminates many of the issues mentioned in this note.
This guide covers several common questions and problems encountered when using
dbms_scheduler to run external jobs, either on Windows or on UNIX.
What operating system (OS) user does the job run as ?
External jobs which have a credential (available in 11g) run as the user
specified in the credential. But for jobs without credentials including
all jobs in 10gR1 and 10gR2 there are several cases.
- On UNIX systems, in releases including and after 10.2.0.2 there is a file $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora . All external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the user and group specified in this file. This should be nobody:nobody by default.
- On UNIX systems, in releases prior to 10.2.0.2 there was no "externaljob.ora" file. In this case all external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the owner and group of the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/extjob file which should be setuid and setgid. By default extjob is owned by nobody:nobody except for oracle-xe where it is owned by oracle:oraclegroup and is not setuid/setgid.
- On Windows, external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the user that the OracleJobScheduler Windows service runs as. This service must be started before these jobs can run.
- In all releases on both Windows and UNIX systems, external jobs in the SYS schema without a credential run as the oracle user.
What errors are reported in SCHEDULERJOB_RUN_DETAILS views ?
If a job fails, the first place to look for diagnostic information is the SCHEDULERJOB_RUN_DETAILS set of views. In 10gR2 and up the first 200 characters of the standard error stream is included in the additional_info column.
In all releases, the error number returned by the job is converted into a
system error message (e.g. errno.h on UNIX or net helpmsg on Windows) and that
system error message is recorded in the additional info column. If there is no
corresponding message the number is displayed.
In 11g and up the error number returned by the job is additionally recorded in
the error# column. In earlier releases 27369 would always be recorded in the
error# column.
Generic Issues Applicable to UNIX and Windows
- The job action (script or executable) must return 0 or the job run will be marked as failed.
- Always use the full pathname to executables and scripts.
- Do not count on environment variables being set in your job. Make sure that the script or executable that your jobs runs sets all required environment variables including ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, PATH etc.
- It is not recommended to pass in a complete command line including arguments as the action. Instead it is recommended to pass in only the path to and name of the executable and to pass in arguments as job argument values.
- Scripts with special characters in the execution path or script name may give problems.
- Ensure that the OS user your job runs as has the required privileges/permissions to run your job. See above for how to tell who the job runs as.
- External job actions cannot contain redirection operators e.g. > < >> | && ||
- In general try getting a simple external job working first e.g. /bin/echo or ipconfig.exe on Windows. Also try running the job action directly from the commandline as the OS user that the job will run as.
Windows-specific Issues
- The OracleJobScheduler Windows service must be started before external jobs will run (except for jobs in the SYS schema and jobs with credentials).
- The user that the OracleJobScheduler Windows service runs as must have the "Log on as batch job" Windows privilege.
- A batch file (ending in .bat) cannot be called directly by the Scheduler. Instead cmd.exe must be used and the name of the batch file passed in as an argument. For example
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job('myjob',
job_action=>'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CMD.EXE',
number_of_arguments=>3,
job_type=>'executable', enabled=>false);
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',1,'/q');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',2,'/c');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',3,'c:\temp\test.bat');
dbms_scheduler.enable('myjob');
end;
/- In 10gR1 external jobs that wrote to standard output or standard error streams would sometimes return errors. Redirect to files or suppress all output and error messages when using 10gR1 to run external jobs.
UNIX-specific Issues
- When running scripts, make sure that the executable bit is set.
- When running scripts directly, make sure that the first line of the script in a valid shebang line - starting with "#!" and containing the interpreter for the script.
- In release 10.2.0.1, jobs creating a large amount of standard error text may hang when running (this was fixed in the first 10.2.0.2 patchset). If you are seeing this issue, redirect standard error to a file in your job. This issue has been seen when running the expdp utility which may produce large amounts of standard error text.
- the user that the job runs as (see above section) must have execute access on $ORACLE_HOME/bin and all parent directories. If this is not the case the job may be reported as failed or hang in a running state. For example if your $ORACLE_HOME is /opt/oracle/db then you would have to make sure that
chmod a+rx /opt
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle/db
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle/db/bin
- On oracle-xe, the primary group of your oracle user (if it exists) must be dba before you install oracle-xe for external jobs to work. If you have an oracle user from a regular Oracle installation it may have the primary group set to oinstall.
- On oracle-xe, the extjobo executable is missing so external jobs in the SYS schema will not work properly. This can be fixed by copying the extjob executable to extjobo in the same directory ($ORACLE_HOME/bin).
- Check that correct permissions are set for external job files - extjob and externaljob.ora (see below)
Correct permissions for extjob and externaljob.ora on UNIX
There is some confusion as to what correct permissions are for external job related files.
In 10gR1 and 10.2.0.1 :
- rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora should not exist
- bin/extjob should be setuid and setgid 6550 (r-sr-s---). It should be owned by the user that jobs should run as and by the group that jobs should run as.
- bin/extjobo should have normal 755 (rwxr-xr-x) permissions and be owned by oracle:oraclegroup
In 10.2.0.2 and higher
- rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora file must must be owned by root:oraclegroup and be writable only by the owner i.e. 644 (rw-r--r--) It must contain at least two lines: one specifying the run-user and one specifying the run-group.
- bin/extjob file must be also owned by root:oraclegroup but must be setuid i.e. 4750 (-rwsr-x---)
- bin/extjobo should have normal 755 (rwxr-xr-x) permissions and be owned by oracle:oraclegroup
In 11g and higher
Same as 10.2.0.2 but additionally bin/jssu should exist with root setuid
permissions i.e. owned by root:oraclegroup with 4750 (-rwsr-x---)
Internal Error numbers for UNIX on 10.2.0.2 or 10.1.0.6 or higher
If you are not using a credential and are using version 10.2.0.2 or higher or 10.1.0.6 or higher you may come across an internal error number. Here are the meanings for the internal error numbers.
274661 - can't get owner of or permissions of externaljob.ora file
274662 - not running as root or externaljob.ora file is writable by group or other or externaljob.ora file not owned by root (can't switch user)
274663 - setting the group or effective group failed
274664 - setting the user or effective user failed
274665 - a user or group id was not changed successfully
274666 - cannot access or open externaljob.ora file
274667 - invalid run_user specified in externaljob.ora file
274668 - invalid run_group specified in externaljob.ora file
274669 - error parsing externaljob.ora file

Hi All,
I planned to create a job to do rman backup daily at 04:00 AM.
1. I created a program as follows
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_PROGRAM(
program_name => 'rman_backup_prg',
program_action => '/u02/rmanback/rman.sh',
program_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
comments => 'RMAN BACKUP');
END;
my rman script is
#!/usr/bin/ksh
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
export PATH=$PATH:/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin

an_220108.dmp log=/u02/rmanback/rman_220108.log owner=rman statistics=none comp
ress=n buffer=400000
compress *.dmp
exit
2. I created a schedule as follows
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_SCHEDULE(
schedule_name => 'rman_backup_schedule',
start_date => SYSTIMESTAMP,
end_date => '31-DEC-16 05.00.00 AM',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY; BYHOUR=4',
comments => 'Every day at 4 am');
END;
3. I created ajob as follows.
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
job_name => 'rman_backup_job',
program_name => 'rman_backup_prg',
schedule_name => 'rman_backup_schedule',
enabled=> true,
auto_drop=> false
END;
While I am running the job I am getting the following error anybody help me.
ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: Not owner

PL/SQL w/ Java to run OS batch file crashes Oracle
I followed instructions from "Ask Tom" on using PL/SQL with Java to execute an OS batch file. For testing purposes, my batch file does nothing more than display the date and time from the OS.
However, when I run the PL/SQL that executes this simple batch file repeatedly - anywhere from two to four times, the Oracle instance crashes abruptly. Nothing is written to the alert log. No trace files are created.
Here is a sample session:

Shortly after the second "run", Oracle crashed. All I received was the following error message:

I am running Oracle 9i rel. 2 installed on my PC under Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 2). My knowledge of Java is next to nothing.
Can anyone give me an idea(s) as to what might be causing Oracle to crash?

The only thing I really changed was the reurn value from the java procedure. If it has a return value then it should be declared as a function, not a procedure. Since you probably (apparently) weren't using the return value I dropped it and made it a procedure. -
Executing batch file from Java stored procedure hang
Dears,
I'm using the following code to execute batch file from Java Stored procedure, which is working fine from Java IDE JDeveloper 10.1.3.4.
public static String runFile(String drive)
String result = "";
String content = "echo off\n" + "vol " + drive + ": | find /i \"Serial Number is\"";
try {
File directory = new File(drive + ":");
File file = File.createTempFile("bb1", ".bat", directory);
file.deleteOnExit();
FileWriter fw = new java.io.FileWriter(file);
fw.write(content);
fw.close();
// The next line is the command causing the problem
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /c " + file.getPath());
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null)
result += line;
input.close();
file.delete();
result = result.substring( result.lastIndexOf( ' ' )).trim();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
result = e.getClass().getName() + " : " + e.getMessage();
return result;
The above code is used in getting the volume of a drive on windows, something like "80EC-C230"
I gave the SYSTEM schema the required privilege to execute the code.
EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'java.io.FilePermission', '<<ALL FILES>>', 'read ,write, execute, delete');
EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'writeFileDescriptor', '');
EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'readFileDescriptor', '');
GRANT JAVAUSERPRIV TO SYSTEM;
I have used the following to load the class in Oracle 9ir2 DB:
loadjava -u [system/******@orcl|mailto:system/******@orcl] -v -resolve C:\Server\src\net\dev\Util.java
CREATE FUNCTION A1(drive IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'net.dev.Util.a1(java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
variable serial1 varchar2(1000);
call A1( 'C' ) into :serial1;
The problem that it hangs when I execute the call to the function (I have indicated the line causing the problem in a comment in the code).
I have seen similar problems on other forums, but no solution posted
[http://oracle.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/oracle-jdeveloper-l/run-an-exe-file-using-oracle-database-trigger-1567662]
I have posted this in JDeveloper forum ([t-853821]) but suggested to post for forum in DB.
Can anyne help?Dear Peter,
You are totally right, I got this as mistake copy paste. I'm just having a Java utility for running external files outside Oracle DB, this is the method runFile()
I'm passing it the content of script and names of file to be created on the fly and executed then deleted, sorry for the mistake in creating caller function.
The main point, how I claim that the line in code where creating external process is the problem. I have tried the code with commenting this line and it was working ok, I made this to make sure of the permission required that I need to give to the schema passing security permission problems.
The function script is running perfect if I'm executing vbs script outside Oracle using something like "cscript //NoLogo aaa1.vbs", but when I use the command line the call just never returns to me "cmd.exe /c bb1.bat".
where content of bb1.bat as follows:
echo off
vol C: | find /i "Serial Number is"
The above batch file just get the serial number of hard drive assigned when windows formatted HD.
Same code runs outside Oracle just fine, but inside Oracle doesn't return if I exectued the following:
variable serial1 varchar2(1000);
call A1( 'C' ) into :serial1;
Never returns
Thanks for tracing teh issue to that details ;) hope you coul help. -
How to edit a line in a file using a batch file??????
Basically i want to edit one line in a properties file, using a batch file, Here is what it says
#Minecraft server properties
#Tue Feb 22 15:58:36 PST 2011
level-name=world2
hellworld=false
spawn-monsters=true
online-mode=false
spawn-animals=true
max-players=5
server-ip=5.196.238.77
pvp=true
server-port=25565
white-list=false
The IP address needs to be changed, i have a hamachi server and a server for home but i need to change this to my ip address on my computer wich is 192.168.1.74. This needs to be changed back and forth so how can i make a batch that just runs and then done its been changed.There are no .bat files in a Unix environment
#!/usr/bin/env bash
export NEW_IP=192.168.1.74
perl -ni -e '
s/d.d+.d+.d/$ENV{"NEW_IP"}/;
print;
' yourpropertiesfile
Make sure you change the file's protections so they are executable
chmod +x nameof_yourscript
There are other ways to do this, I just choose a perl script within a bash script. You could do it all with a bash script, you could use awk, you could use sed, you could use python, ruby, etc... -
Using JSP to run batch file - command launches excel but doesn't open file
I have written a jsp on a server which runs a batch file. Every command line in the batch works fine except the following:
CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" C:\Temp\spreadsheet.xls
I can see that a command prompt has been opened and an instance of Excel has been created, but it does not open the file.
I tried running the batch file on its own. It worked fine. I tried putting the java code in the jsp into a java class, that worked okay too. I think it might be to do with the fact that the client is trying lauch the application through the web, but it's missing some information such as paths.
I am totally running out of ideas.. please helpI guess if I know JSP stands for Java Server Pages..
I would most probably know it runs on servers.Yes, you might, but if you were assuming that the path you gave would always lead to an executable running on the client you'd have a problem. It's worth asking.
I must admit it's probably not the best idea, but if
you can give me some advice on that, that would be
greatJSPs shouldn't have code in them that doesn't pertain to view. I'd wrap something like a system call or Runtime.exec in a Java Bean that you can test off-line without the JSP. Then have the JSP instantiate an instance, invoke its method, and display the value that's returned.
You've read this, of course:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html
Everyone who uses Runtime.exec should.

Help, how to install jvm and set the classpath using a batch file
hello,
i have created my java application and now have to create an installable / batch file which will install the JVM on the users machine and also the java packages such as javamail and the class files that i have created . it also has to set the classpath.
i would like to know if anyone can tell me how to go about iti.e. how can i install the JVM using a batch file and then place the javamial packages etc in the apropriate directory .
or is it advisable to explain it to the user how to go about it in tht user manual.
and would also like to know that if i install the JVM will the path for the java.exe be set
or will i have to set the path explicitly from the "batch file" so that the user can run the application without and problem just by running the java command followed by filename from the command prompt.hi,
I have windows and I use it.
The only problem with the free edition is that you can only create 1 launcher and that during the installation you get 1 popup showing that the installer was created with an unregistered version.

Passing parameter values to powershell function from batch file
Hello ,
I haven't used powershell for a while and getting back to using it. I have a function and I want to figure out how to pass the parameter values to the function through batch file.
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100

$datafile = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"
$returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"

The above code seems to be work when I call it. But when I try to call that script and try to pass the parameter values, I am doing something wrong but can't figure out what.
powershell.exe -command " &{"C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"}"

powershell.exe -file "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Somehow the I can't get the datafile parameter value being passed to the function. Your help would be much appreciated.
I90RunnerI am not sure about calling a function in a script like how you want to. Also I see you are setting the values of the parameters, this is not needed unless you want default values if nothing is passed. The values for the parameters will be passed via the
batch file. So for me the easiest way is as indicated.
param
[string]$DataFile
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100
Write-Host "Return Code: $(Check-FileExists $DataFile)"
Then you create a batch file that has
start powershell.exe
-ExecutionPolicy
RemoteSigned -Command
"& {<PathToScript>\MyScript.ps1 -DataFile 'C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile.txt'}"
Double click the batch file, and it should open a powershell console, load your script and pass it the path specified, which then the script runs it and gives you your output

Batch file to html report generator:
I want to create reports based of the batch file that I run.
I created a batch file to run a number of programs for this PC tune up service that we do at the University I work at. This is mostly a "learn for my own benefit" project, but if it works and looks nice I would like to make it availible to
my co workers.
Here is what I have so far for the batch:
@echo off
:start
echo.
echo Do you need to install
echo Microsoft Antivirus?
echo Type y / n (lowercase)
set /p antivirus=
if %antivirus%== y goto msantivirus
if %antivirus%== n goto mbam
goto start
:msantivirus
echo ProgramFiles(x86) var:
if not defined ProgramFiles(x86) (
start mseinstall32.exe
else (
start mseinstall64.exe
:mbam
echo.
echo Do you need to install
echo Malwarebytes?
echo Type y / n (lowercase)
set /p malwarebytes=
if %malwarebytes%== y start mbam-setup-2.0.2.1012.exe
if %malwarebytes%== n goto cleaner
goto mbam
:cleaner
echo.
echo Do you need to install
echo CCleaner?
echo Type y / n (lowercase)
set /p CCleaner=
if %CCleaner%== y start start ccsetup416.exe
if %CCleaner%== n goto msconfig
goto cleaner
:msconfig
echo.
echo Do you need to run
echo MSCONFIG?
echo Type y / n (lowercase)
set /p microsoftconfig=
if %microsoftconfig%== y start msconfig
if %microsoftconfig%== n goto print
goto msconfig
:print
echo.
echo Do you want to print
echo a report?
echo Type y / n (lowercase)
set /p print=
if %print%== y start (i don't know what to do here)
if %print%== n goto done
goto done
:done
echo.
echo You have finished the Zonetech scan. Press any key to exit.

Here is what I want to do:
I want to make an interactive html report based on an HTML site I made. I want to take the y (meaning yes) inputs for the strings( anitivirus, malwarebytes, ccleaner, and Microsoftconfig which are from the batch) and make them indicate something has
been done on the HTML that I created. Essentially, I see the yes inputs putting check marks (or something) in the sections of my HTML document that are related to the programs I ran in the batch. The sections in the HTML page are called Virus Scan,
Adware Scan, Registry Scan, and Start up scan and they are paired to the variables antivirus, malwarebytes, ccleaner, and microsoftconfig.
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks for any helpThis is the way I was looking at it. Essentially a html file is a text file. I have already written the html file I want to have displayed. I just want the batch to make a slight change to the text in part of it. If I could
do that I would be happy. Is there any way to do that with the batch?
Editing files never has been and is still not something that batch files do easily. I ti si not the intention of batch to do this.
If you are trying to learn something, try learn-ing something that is not obsolete. Batch is not worth the time when we have PowerShell, If you ant to alter an HTML dynamically then use an HTA. It is easy and well supported.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
