Calling Unix shell script for some GUI interface

Hi,
I'm preparing a shell script, which would check for the syntax of a bteq script.
I want this shell script to be called from a GUI interface...
Is it possible to call this shell script from any GUI interface..
If yes, could you please help me out.
Thanks,
Harshad.

Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
Here is the condition which i want to implement.
1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
2. Increase size of redolog file.
3. Load sample schema.
4. dump the schema.
5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
6. Create backup using rman.
7. restore backup which you have backed up.

This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site. Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code. But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours. There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

Call Unix Shell Script From OBIEE

Hi All,
Is it possible to do a call to a Unix Shell Script with the Action Framework from OBIEE.
Thanks in Advance

I dont think so but we can go for it instead of BI side. Try to port the same functionality on shell script side, so that the script can identify your report using tail of nqquery log and execute the rest of your lines in shell script.
This can doable and works as expected. If at all you are going with my suggestion you can go for a small key word to identify your report instead of that lengthy logical query.
Pls mark if helps

User defined workflow calling unix shell script

Hi
I have defined a workflow in OWB 10GR2 which calles a user defined object before calling the actual mapping.
The user defined object calls a unix shell script which sets things right in the shell before the mapping can run.
When executing the shell script from a unix shell myself it does exactly what I want
However if I call the same script from workflow it does not recognize any of the commands not even internal shell commands like ls, touch.
I've created a small test.sh script
#! /bin/bash
ls -l > listing.txt
Created a flow with a user_defined object of which property is set:
COMMAND.Value /home/oracle/test.sh
If I then deploy and start the flow get the following:
PF_WEB_00:TEST Success
/home/oracle/test.sh: line 2: ls: command not found
Anyone has any clue why this is or what I'm doing wrong?
Geert

Hi Lew,
Thanks for the reply.
This basically confirms what I've figured out so far.
I noticed I was able to get my script running by using absolute paths everywhere, after which my only problem was it could not resolve the TNS.
To bypass this I ended up copying all the path settings out of the .profile of my oracle user into my script after which the script ran fine.
At least now I know for sure what's causing it and that by making my scripts a bit more extensive then usual I can do what I please :)

Can i call unix shell script from B2B callout.

Hi,
We had a requirement to invoke a unix shell script from B2B callout implemented class. Here is the code in implementation class:

throws CalloutDomainException, CalloutSystemException {
try {
CalloutMessage cmIn = (CalloutMessage)input.get(0);
FileOutputStream fos = null;

File outFile = new File(inputFile);
String str =cmIn.getBodyAsString();
fos = new FileOutputStream(outFile);
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(fos);
out.write(str);
out.close();
String shellFile = "/home/orasoad/digitalsign/dg.sh";
String cmd[] = new String[] { shellFile, inputFile, outputFile };

We were able to execute the unix shell script from standalone java class with same code. But some how it is not working as expected while invoking the B2B java callout.
Is it possible to invoke unix shell script from B2B callout?
Please give inputs.

Though it's not a good idea to invoke shell scripts from java callout but technically it will work.
But some how it is not working as expected while invoking the B2B java callout.What is not working as expected? Any error in the log (server-diagnostic.log or server.out)?

Hi,
Register your Shell Script as a concurrent program, Executable execution method "Host", then use fnd_request.submit_request to submit the program.

Process Flow - User Defined object calling Unix Shell script not working

Hi, I have a User Defined Object in a Process Flow with the following parameters :-
Command: /usr/bin/ksh
Parameter List:
Result Code:
Script: cd /shell_scripts
./dwh_get_datafile.sh param1 param2 param3
Success Threshold: 0
The script executes but it does not correctly interpret all the Unix commands within it e.g command such as FTP, DATE, GREP etc.
In the job details I can see :-
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: date: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: ftp: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: grep: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: rm: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: ls: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: awk: not found
Anyone know what I have done wrong ?
The script runs fine when run as a Unix script while logged into Telnet.
Thanks.
Paul

The shell script is executed by the oracle user in the unix environment so make sure that the directorie where you can find the unix commands exists in the path for the oracle user in .profile as you can se in my example below.
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$OWBHOME/bin:/ASW/ora_script:/local/bstat:/usr/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/local/bin; export PATH

How can I call unix shell script from database using triggers

Hi everyone,
can anybody help me to solve my problem.
we have one table and records are getting inserted into table.
when the record is inserted with 'C',I need to fetch that record-id which is primary key and then by passing that id as an argument I need to execute a shell script which is there in Unix using triggers.
please note DB and Scripts are in different servers.

PL/SQL can only interact with objects on the local DB Server.
PL/SQL can initiate OS local script via any of the following mechanisms: EXTERNAL PROCEDURE, JAVA, DBMS_SCHEDULER
The local script then will need to launch the remote script.

Calling unix shell script from SAP

Hi,
1. i created command in SM69 as Zshell.
2. i pass this command to FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE. it is working fine when the file is having read write execute permisson on unix level.
but the problem is my unix administrator he don't want to give this permission. because of some security reason.
he want's to execute with ROOT.
anyone knows how i can handle this situation?
if the file is doesnot have read write execute permission, then FM give permission error.

If you are on 10g you can also use DBMS_SCHEDULER. See Re: Excute Unix command Using PL SQL

Java exec() of UNIX shell script

I have a java application that uses:
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( cmdLine);
to execute a UNIX shell script, for example:
#!/bin/ksh
. /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/wsEnv
export PATH=/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:$PATH
cd /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/usr/src/pkgdefs/SFWnmap
/usr/ccs/bin/make -e ROOT=$ROOT install
RESULT=$?
if [ $RESULT = 0 ]
then
echo "Package source"
cd /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/usr/src/pkgdefs/SFWnmapS
/usr/ccs/bin/make -e ROOT=$ROOT install
RESULT=$?
fi
exit $RESULT
Some times the running of the script locks up depending on how much work the script has to, eg. if the make calls pkgmk for a small package it runs okay but if its a large package it locks up in pkgmk.
The script itself works okay if run directly
Does anyone have any ideas on why this locks up and how I could stop it doing it.
Thanks

For anyone who stumbles across this and needs an answer:
To empty the standard error and output, you need to use getErrorStream() and getInputStream() on the Process object created when you execed your command. Create new InputStreamReaders with the streams from the process, then wrap those with BufferedReaders and read each line with a while loop. This is the basic thing you need to do:
try{
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(proc.getErrorStream());
BufferedReader errReader = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line;
while((line = errReader.readLine()) != null)
<do something with each line of error>
} //end try
catch(<errors>) {
<do something with errors>
} //end catch
What you really should do is put the stream handling in a separate class that extends Thread, create an instance for the error and output streams, and start each one. There is a class called StreamGobbler that does this sort of thing. Look at http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html to find out more about it and read a detailed explanation of different problems with exec().
