Calling Operating system command from PL/SQL programs
Hi
Is there any way we call the unix shell script from PL/SQL procedure/functions
In 10g, it is possible.
BEGIN
dbms_scheduler.create_job(job_name => 'myjob',
job_type => 'executable',
job_action => '/app/oracle/x.sh',
enabled => TRUE,
auto_drop => TRUE);
END;
SQL> exec dbms_scheduler.run_job('myjob');

again
get
can't exec: /tmp/sri/GROUP_ho.sh lacks user privilege
same error;Process management at the OS level should prevent execution continuing in the calling code until the command has completed (either successfully or with error).
If the low level java code were to spawn child process threads then execution could continue, but I'm guessing the Java function your talking about doesn't do that and just calls the operating system to execute the command and waits for the returning code to come back. -
How to: execute operating system commands from PL/SQL
System: IBM pSeries AIX

Is there a quick way to execute operating system commands from PL/SQL?
Without creating a JAVA class....
I need to execute a Loader script.
I want to do this from within PL/SQL.
I need to to do 4 things.
Three require SQL scripts.
The fourth is SQL*Loader.
The usual way is with a UNIX script calling 3 SQL scripts and one Loader control file.
Is there way to do all this from within ONE PL/SQL SCRIPT ??
Just let me know.Is there a quick way to execute operating system commands from PL/SQL?

WHY ON EARTH, such action will create a new connection and become a resource hog?

Which is perfect for the purpose.

NO, there is NOT. Nor should there be. Why create unstable ineffcient Mickey Mouse systems, glued together by hacking?

How to call Operating System commands / external programs from within APEX
Hi,
Can someone please suggest how to call Operating Systems commands / external programs from within APEX?
E.g. say I need to run a SQL script on a particular database. SQL script, database name, userid & password everything is available in a table in Oracle. I want to build a utility in APEX where by when I click a button APEX should run the following
c:\oracle\bin\sqlplusw.exe userud/password@database @script_name.sql
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,Hi Guys,
I have reviewed the option of using scheduler and javascript and they do satisfy my requirements PARTIALLY. Any calls to operating system commands through these features will be made on the server where APEX is installed.
However, here what I am looking at is to call operating systems programs on client machine. For example in my APEX application I have constructed the following strings of commands that needs to be run to execute a change request.
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script1.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script2.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script3.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script4.sql
What I want is to have a button/link on the APEX screen along with these lines so that when I click that link/button this entire line of command gets executed in the same way it would get executed if I copy and paste this command in the command window of windows.
Believe me, if I am able to achieve what I intend to do, it is going to save a lot of our DBAs time and effort.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards, -

Ramesh L.Are you using a webserver? If so, you could make your operating system script into a CGI program, then execute it from pl/sql using utl_http.request.

Is it possible to call operating system command after file receive?
Hi expert,
I'm trying to call operating system command after file receive comm.channel receive a txt file.
operating system command uses txt file name as parameter.
Is it possible? How?
Thanks.Hi,
It should be possible, actually we have two options that are
1.RUN OS command before message processing
2.RUN OS command after message processing.
So you can give the commands in the RUN OS command after message processing.

How can i call operating system services from Jdeveloper ?
nullWe do not use JDeveloper but use external procedures/routines called from the database. Then you can call a database procedure to an operating system task.

You can't issue a SQL*PLus command from a PL/SQL program. If you can tell us more about what you are trying to do, perhaps we can offer a substitute.

OS command from PL/SQL code
Is there any way of running on OS (Operating System) command from SQL or PL/SQL. i.e. calling an executable from a trigger.
Is there any way of running on OS (Operating System) command from >SQL or PL/SQL. i.e. calling an executable from a trigger. Ashis,
Here's an example of a simple piece of Java you can create using SQL*Plus:
CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "RuntimeExample" AS public class RuntimeExample {
public static String runNotepad() {
String returnValue = null;
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
try {
Process p = r.exec("notepad.exe");
returnValue = p.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception calling Runtime.exec()->" + e);
/* You can get creative here and
1) Use p.waitFor() to block while the process is running,
2) Send the command to be executed as a parameter to the method, etc. */
return returnValue;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION runNotepad RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'RuntimeExample.runNotepad() return java.lang.String';
DECLARE
my_varchar2 VARCHAR2(64);
BEGIN
my_varchar2 := runnotepad;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(my_varchar2);
END;
Hope this helps,
