Call a python script from perl file
This is my first post and am not sure if this is the right forum to post this query. If this is not the right forum, pls redirect me to the appropriate forum.
Query :
I have a python script which was created through WLS console's recording feature. I have to call this python script from a perl script (dte topo block).
Any pointers towards how this can be achieved ?
Thanks,
Madhusudan
I am using inline python to execute python statements directly from the perl script. However, i get below error :
[maddeshp@slc01auw forDTE]$ perl -c intro.pl
Can't find string terminator "END_OF_PYTHON_CODE" anywhere before EOF at intro.pl line 2.
Has anyone run into this problem ? Any suggestions on fixing this ?
Thanks,
Madhusudan

How to call a python script from a TestStand sequence?
Please tell me how is it possible to call a python script from a TestStand sequence.
Thank for your help in advance.
ImreHere you can find some information about Python and LabVIEW:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=124424&query.id=149647#M124424
If you have LabVIEW, you could use LabVIEW steps to call your Phyton Scipts.
Another solution would be, to do, what is decriibed in the thread directly in TestStand:
You can call a dll or .NET assemblies directly from teststand, or use the "Call Executable" TestStep. -
Calling a python Script from an AE Script
I'm trying to create a little automation script to inegrate my studios's pipline with our Shotgun page.
I have the python cript working as "myScripy.py <arguments>" Where arguments are comp names to be updated.
i was hoping i could create an array of selected comps and run the script once for each using:
myPythonScript = "c:\\PythonScripts\\myScript.py " + selectedCompNameVariable
system.callSystem(myPythonScript)
It appears to attempt to call the pythong script via command line, but i get the following error:
"After Effects warning: ERROR: %1 is not a valid Win32 application"
Why is this? Can I not call a python script on my computer via this command? -
Is there a way I can call a python script from within a Robohelp script?
Hi,
I want to integrate an external python script into the current extendscript I use in RoboHelp 10. Is there a way to do that?
Thanks,
LaurenYou can use the command line to call any kind of external application.
Personally, I use the following function to create bat files to do such
work.
I've taken these functions from my free RH Extendscript library -
http://www.wvanweelden.eu/product/robohelp-extendscript-library
function ExecuteBatchFile(command, waitforbatch) {
if(string_isEmpty(command))
return false;
if(!waitforbatch) {
if(waitforbatch != false) {
waitforbatch = true;
var path = Folder.appData.fsName + '/';
var batFileName = 'ExtendScriptBatchFile';
var batFileExtension = '.bat';
var batFile = new File(pathbatFileNamebatFileExtension);
if(batFile.exists) {
var i = 0;
while(batFile.exists) {
i++;
batFile = new File(pathbatFileNamei+batFileExtension);
command+= "\ndel /F /Q \"" + batFile.fsName + "\"";
writeFile(batFile, command, false);
if(!isFile(batFile, true))
return false;
batFile.execute();
/* Wait on batch file execution if needed */
if(waitforbatch) {
while(batFile.exists) {
msg(".");
$.sleep(100);
return true;
function writeFile(file, szOutput, encoding) {
var szFilePath = file.fsName;
if(!encoding || encoding == true) {
encoding = "UTF-8";
var fileObj = new File(szFilePath);
fileObj.encoding = encoding;
fileObj.open("w");
fileObj.write(szOutput);
fileObj.close();

I'm trying to load sharepoint script from *.cmd file.
I have Sharepoint 2010 installed on Windows 7 x64 and SQL server 2008r2.
My cmd file is:
Powershell -v 2 -NonInteractive -NoLogo -File 1.ps1
My sharepoint file 1.ps1 is:
$snapin="Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"
if ($action -eq $null -or $action -eq '')
{<br />
# Action by default is complete uninstallation.
$action='uninstall'
$uninstall = $true
else
$action = $action.ToLower()
switch($action)
{ $_ -eq "uninstall" } { $uninstall = $true; break }
{ $_ -eq "removesolution" } { $removeSolution = $true; break }
{ $_ -eq "deactivatecorpus" } { $deactivateCorpus = $true; break }
{ $_ -eq "deactivatesupport" } { $deactivateSupport = $true; break }
default { Write-Host -f Red "Error: Invalid action: $action "; Exit -1 }
Check the Sharepoint snapin availability.
if (Get-PSSnapin $snapin -ea "silentlycontinue")
Write-Host "PS snapin $snapin is loaded."
elseif (Get-PSSnapin $snapin -registered -ea "silentlycontinue")
Write-Host "PS snapin $snapin is registered."
Add-PSSnapin $snapin
Write-Host "PS snapin $snapin is loaded."
else
Write-Host -f Red "Error: PS snapin $snapin is not found."
Exit -1
$url = "http://pc1/sites/GroupWork/"
$site= new-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url )
$loc= [System.Int32]::Parse(1033)
$templates= $site.GetWebTemplates($loc)
foreach ($child in $templates){ write-host $child.Name " " $child.Title}<br />
$site.Dispose()
The script works fine from the Sharepoint 2010 management shell after launching the shell from the start menu (or from windows cmd by entering powershell -v 2):
PS C:\2> .\1.ps1

PS C:\2>
I have an access to the database Sharepoint_Config from current domain user and from other 2 users. All users have db_owner rights to the Sharepoint_Config database. But
i've loaded in windows from the user which is dbo in the database (dbo with windows authentication with domain\username for the current user). The dbo user has do_owner rights in the Sharepoint_Config database. I've tried to login under other users and launch
the cmd file but without success.

Please help me. I don't understand why the script is launched from the sharepoint management shell but doesn't work from the cmd file.I have an answer for my problem: for solving a problem I've made several steps:
1. Run farm installation under AD admin credentials - runas /user:Domain1\DomainAdmin1 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\BIN\psconfigui.exe".
This user has been added as farm administrator in the wizard.
This user has been added as DBO in the SQL Server. (This is the main difference with my previous attempts)
2. Execute a command Add-SPShellAdmin Domain1\UserAccount1 in
the Management Shell of Sharepoint.
3. Run SQL server and add Sharepoint_Shell_Access to the Domain1\UserAccount1
(my main account) in the Config database
4. Run CMD file only from Start->Run menu.
runas /user:Domain1\UserAccount1 "C:\1.cmd".
Do not use Total Commander command prompt or file list for executing *.cmd of *.bat files without root administrator account.
Thanks all for help. -

Calling an ExtendScript script from the command line
Hi! I can call an ExtendScript script from a command line just by using its path, but is there a way to pass parameters to the script? Thanks. -Rick
Hi Rick,
Well, a scan of the documentation certainly provides no evidence of this capability. If it exists, someone else will have to fill us in.
I did have an idea, although it's a bit of a roundabout approach. A windows batch file can accept parameters and can write a text file. So, maybe Mif2Go can call a batch file instead that writes the folder to some file, then runs the script that reads the file. Although, I'm not familiar with a command line call to ES, so I'm not sure that a batch file can launch an ES script too. If not, can Mif2Go make more than one command line call?

Calling UNIX shell script from ODI package?
Hi,
How Can we call UNIX shell script from ODI package?
I have a ftp_ss.sh script which which ftps a file from remote server to local server, archives the last file and renames new file to the standard (ie file data store)name.
I want to run the above script and interfaces from a package.
Any help is greately appreciated.
Thanks,
RDIn the package window, put "OS Command" from the toolbox.
Provide the command parameters to this tool in form of "/path/to/script/ftp_ss.sh" -
Calling a shell script from ODI tool OS command
hi,
I am trying to call a shell script from the ODI tool OS command with the following command "sh /Oracle/ODI/backlog.sh"
where "backlog.sh" is the name of the shell script. I am redirecting the output of the script to a file called "backlog.out" and this part is done in the script itself.The ODI session is successful and the output file i.e "backlog.out" gets created in the specified location but the output of the script doesnot get written to this output file.Is this the right way of calling the shell script using ODI OS command.Hi-
It seems there is no input parameters for your script. Please check your script file needs any input parameters and try the syntax below:
path/scriptname.sh input1 input2
where input1 and 2 are input parameters for the script file which you are calling.
Hope this will work for you.
Thanks,
