Calling Windows XP FTP Command in java

Hi there!
Need help in calling Windows XP FTP command in java:
executing the FTP command in DOS works well, but when I tried calling it in java using Process and Runtime objects, it successfully transferred the files from remote to my local pc... but I seemed to be stuck with .exec() and cannot continue with the other statements.
I know that I can use eFTPj or Apache Commons Net .. but I have no more time to study it since I have no more time left.
Any idea or suggestion? I badly need your help�
Take care and God bless,
MaDz

Solution:
Better use Apache Commons Net - FTP for greater java support.

Call an interactive UNIX command from java

Hi,
I want to call a UNIX command from java. When issue the command 'htpasswd -c filename username' on UNIX terminal, it asks for the new password and the then confirmation password again (yeah, unfortunately the htpasswd installed on our system does not allow you proivde the password on the command line. So have to work interactively ). Now, I have written a simple java program RunCommand.java. I am hardcoding the password for the htpasswd command in the file (in the real situation, password will be generated dynamically). I want to issue 'java RunCommand' on the UNIX command line and get back the command prompt without being asked for the password twice. The code is below, but the Outputstream does not work as expected. It always asks for inputs. Any idea? Many thanks.
import java.io.*;
public class RunCommand {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
String s = null;
try {
String cmd = "htpasswd -c filename username ";
// run a Unix command
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedReader stdInput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
BufferedReader stdError = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()));
OutputStream stdOut = p.getOutputStream();
String pswd = "mypassword";
while ((s = stdInput.readLine()) != null) {
     s = stdInput.readLine();
     stdOut.write(pswd.getBytes());
     stdOut.flush();
System.out.println("Here is the standard error of the command (if any):\n");
while ((s = stdError.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(s);
stdOut.close();
stdInput.close();
stdError.close();
System.exit(0);
catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("exceptions caught: ");
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(-1);

Put ftp commands inside Java code?

Hi.
I've no problems with ftp with exec(...), using an external ftp text file containing the ftp commands.
But can I pullthe ftp commands into the Java codes?
The reason is we don't want people accidentally messing around with the ftp commands

you can also use URLs for FTPing:
     * If the client needs to connect to the server through a proxy, this method sets the JVM FTP proxy settings.
     * @param proxyHost Host name of proxy.
     * @param proxyPort Port number of proxy host.
    public void setProxy(String proxyHost, int proxyPort) {
        if (proxyHost != null) {
            System.getProperties().put("ftpProxySet", "true");
            System.getProperties().put("ftpProxyHost", proxyHost);
            System.getProperties().put("ftpProxyPort", ""+proxyPort);
    }//setProxy()
     * Upload a file to a FTP server. A FTP URL is generated with the following syntax:
     * <code>ftp://user:password@host:port/urlpath;type=i</code>.
     * @param ftpServer FTP server address.
     * @param user Optional user name to login.
     * @param pwd Optional password for <i>user</i>.

     * @param source Source file to upload.
     * @throws Exception on error.
    public void upload(String ftpServer, String user, String pwd, String fileName, File source) throws MalformedURLException,

Call Windows COM/DCOM objects from Java on Linux

Hello, is it possible to call COM/DCOM objects running on Windows from Java on Linux machine? Thank you.

Calling Window's Dll Functions from Java

Hello Audience,
Is there a way to call Win32/64 based Dynamic-Link-Library functions from Java?
Thanks,
GenKabuki

Yes.
In general, if you are trying to call functions in an existing dll, you will have to write a "wrapper" dll that meets the java jni interface requires. There are tools around wich purport to generate these for you. Do a google serach; among other tools, you should turn up JACE.

PrashantEven if you could (doubtful), looks to me like you have a big exposure of deleting the selected records without being able to confirm that it is truly safe to do so.

Calling OAM WLST Commands from java class

Hi all,
is there any idea how to call OAM related WLST commands from java class ?.
what are the required jar files ?
thanks

Hi,
As per my understanding in OAM you will have only two major .py file startscript.py and stopscript.py file which will start nodemanger connect and start Admin and managed server similarly in stop it will stop managed server Admin server and then last nodemanager.
these all done through wlst command using nmConnect(), nmStart (), nmKill() and shutdown etc.

Perform Windows _lopen command in Java

Hi all,
I would need to know if there is a possibilty to call the Windows Kernel Function "_lopen" in Java. Background is that I need to exclusively lock a File in a Win2K environment, so that another process can not access it.
The other process uses the _lopen command so it would be the correct way to use the same method (or it's Java representation) on my side.
So, is there a possibility to use this method from Java?!
Thanks for any help!!!

Calling CL command in java

I would like to know how to call cl command in java to delete a file in my server. thanks

Use the java.lang.Runtime interface. The exec() method allows you to execute commands from the command shell:
String cmd = new String[2];
cmd[0] = "cl";
cmd[1] = fileToDelete;
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
rt.exec(cmd);

Executing a dos command from java in windows nt

i need to execute the
" net send"
command from the command line in windows nt, from within my java program... is there any way that i can execute cmommands in the dos command shell? or rather, does anybody know a way i can send a message ( in windows ) from java, from one computer to another over the lan?? I cannot have a java programming running on all the other computers, so i cannot make my program serve, it must just send the messges using a lan command....
(the net send command just sends a message in the form of a pop up box on the receiver's screeen)
thanks a bunch guys!!!
Thanks a bunch guys!!!!

you can do that with exec() in Runtime.
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = rt.exec(command here);but before you do that you need to read this:

How to call gnuplot command from java

Hi there,
In our course, we are required to develop an GUI for gnuplot. In case you don't know about gnuplot, it's a plotting program and has lots of command. We want to use java and swing, but now we don't know how to call gnuplot command from java, or how to execute a shell command(script) from java.
By the way, since we need read in files with several columns of data and allow user to select a column, we want to use JTable. Is that reasonable?
Thanks a lot for any suggestions!
Jack

Hi, there:
Will using JTable add much overhead? I may have to use several JTables and switch among them. I can add scroll bar to or edit JTables, right?
BTW, do you have experience about gnuplot? Can I find the command tree of gnuplot somewhere? Or do you know a better place to post question about gnuplot? unix/linux group, maybe.
Thanks,
Jack
P.S. Would you guys answer my question after I use up my duke dollars? :- )

Note : Firewall ports are opened. have tested by making firewall down to avoid filters.
Pandiyan Muthuraman

Hi Pandiyan Muthuraman,
Did you mean even you disable or open the related port the FTP issue still exist? I found this errors most time occur when we use the ISA firewall and the FTP configured passive
mode, if you have ISA firewall please refer the following KB to fix this issue.
