How execute Unix script from java?

Can I execute Unix script from java?

Yes. Using ProcessBuilder. And read [When Runtime.exec() wont|http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html]. It's old, but pretty much all of it is still true.

Hi,
U can use external procedure ( newly added feature in 8.0.3 onwards) and call any shared library. From shared library u can execute it.
One sql command is there HOST(' '). U can run a OS command. But u can not use it in PL/SQL.
U can call pls sql from shell !!!!!..

Problem executing Unix script from Java...

Hi there, I'm having trouble executing a unix script from a java program. The script receives multiple parameters and it seems that one of them ( or more ) is not well interpreted. When I run the script directly from a shell, the script executes without any errors. But, when I run the exact same script with the exact same parameters, it does not work.
Here is the command to execute the script with all the parameters that is executed from the shell ( with success ) and also from the java program ( with errors ):
/z/opus/dcap/intfu001.csh 'NODEBUG^NOTKPROF^NOSTACK' opus dcap JACQUES JACQUES '2625781' 'ORA$PIPE$001D00D70001' JOB^DEBUG^SINISIMU^STATPROD^DECTIDANC^81^503^4080^86^87^151^97^98^99 BUT^N^N^SPRI^0^13^24^3^J^05^N^19^19^19 >> /tmp/switcher8.999.null.pgm.test
And here is my portion of code that executes the script:
Runtime wShell = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process wProc = wShell.exec(cmd_unix_final);
wProc.waitFor();
return wProc.exitValue();
Please give me your thoughts on this!
Thanks in advance!

Ok.
Let's proceed surgically, else we'll never solve or overcome anything.
In the last your reply you wrote:
the normal output is what I get when the script runs successfully, the script first prints a few things
and then does stuff that takes at least 2 or 3 secondsWhat do you mean?
-Finally have you got your script correctly executed?
The stuffs you spoke of are really performed?
If this is the case I can't see the prob.
Is your concern only about exitValue() for it doesn't let you distinguish programmatically
the success or failure of the script execution?
Of course you surely already have a routine in your java code to handle
exceptional situations of errors from the script.
And the "normal output" is just what you must parse to detect those errors.
Then who cares about exitValue() in this case?
Don't invoke it, relay on the stdout and stderr of the script.
-Or you get only a deceiving standard output
that let you think the script execution went alright, while instead it didn't.
In this case we have to investigate some other thing.
I can't still exclude that the problem isn't related with the buffer size of the stdout
allocated by the environment to the subprocess. You spoke of few things printed out.
Be explicit. What's the size of the output you get?
And is the "normal output" complete till the very last char
or is it truncated from somewhere on?
Also it's important that you hit a ps command after the java main process terminates
(or simply when waitFor() returns) and see if the script subprocess hung up.
As an alternative approach directly call your pro*C code from Java through JNI, instead of translating it.
1. Exec.java
public class Exec{
     static{
          System.loadLibrary("Exec");
     public static native void proCFunct();
     public static void main( String[] args){
          proCFunct();
}2. javac Exec.java
3. javah Exec
4.Exec.c
#include "Exec.h"
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_Exec_proCFunct(JNIEnv * a, jclass b){
     //here call the function that executes the script
5. cc -G -I$JAVA_HOME/include -I$JAVA_HOME/include/solaris -I$YOUR_INCLUDES Exec.c -o libExec.so

Error while executing UNIX script from BODS - exit code 127

I am trying to execute a unix script by calling it in BODS job. It is giving an error saying Program terminated with exit code 127. The same script when i am executing in UNIX it is working fine. I am unable to trace the issue.

Hi Sabre,
As per the guidelines provided by the article, i had done below changes..
InputStream is = null;
InputStreamReader iStreamReader = null;
BufferedReader bReader = null;
String line = null;
try{
String fileName ="test.ksh";
String argValue ="satish"; // value passed to the script
String exeParam = "/usr/bin/ksh "+fileName+" "+argValue;
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeParam);
is = proc.getErrorStream();
iStreamReader = new InputStreamReader(is);
bReader = new BufferedReader(iStreamReader);
System.out.println("<ERROR>");
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println("Error is : "+line);
System.out.println("</ERROR>");
int exitValue = proc.waitFor();
sop("Exit Value is : "+exitValue);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
Now , it's showing something like..
<ERROR>
</ERROR>

Executing unix scripts from java...

Hi guys,
I'm pretty new at this java stuff, but can someone tell me if it's possible to have a java object that connects to a specific unix box through a given IP and Port and execute a Unix shell command? The shell script creates a file that will be later ftp'ed from the UX box back to the PC I ran the java program from. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Yes I thank it can be done. I have not done it but you prob can do it through tcp/ip useing ServerSocket and socket class.Make a server with the ServerSocket class on the linux box that is listening to the port and when it gets the right signal from your client on your pc/win the server will activate the sell script with the Runtime.getRuntime().exec(shellscript);
Well just a thought GOOD LUCK

More on unix script from pl/sql

Hi All,
There was this discussion on starting unix scripts from within a pl/sql stored procedure started on August 31.
All comments were targeted towards an oracle 8X solution.
Does anyone have a solution for 7.3.4?
Somebody mentioned something about using dbms_pipe package.
So, just to rephrase the problem:
- Need to execute any unix command/script from within a pl/sql block (stored procedure). Instance is oracle 7.3.4
Thanks!
Enrique

Hi Juan,
You can try this solution:
enable in the the init file the parameter
utl_file_dir="target_directory"In this way You permit the the DB to writing directly to the filesistem in the directory You specified.
After restarting the istance You may write Your own code that, using the supplied package UTL_FILE, writes a file in that directory (es. my_script.sh)
Then, instruct the cron daemon to execute every 1 minute this command.
You may append to the script the self-destruction after the execution.
I hope that this will help You.

Calling UNix Script from portal Form

Has anyone conquered this issue through jav or plsql. I need to call a unix script from the portal form when I select the insert button.

I have several very convoluted ways which all work, but I have always thought there should be more straightfwd ways. Fundamentally the easiest way to call something from the Insert button is to add some PL/SQL code before (or after) the "doInsert();" call in the Insert Button event handler.
What seems to be lacking is the ability to get from pl/sql to the o/s. So until we know how to do that you have to call a method in Java to execute o/s commands - specifically you can use Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd); where Runtime is a class in java.lang, and cmd is the actual o/s command (script or whatever).
How to call this Java is then where you have several options:
1. Compile this piece of Java into the Oracle DB as a SP.
2. Deploy this piece of Java within a Java servlet on a 9iAS instance. Then have another SP call this servlet using the utl_http package (begin_request and other sp's within package).
Which options would depend on several factors including your preference but most importantly whether you have a DB or a 9iAS instance on the machine where you want to execute the script. If you have neither you have a problem. In such cases I have used a standalone OC4J container which has a very small footprint.
As I said these methods are all quite convoluted and if anyone else has anything better I would like to know (but they work quite reliably).
Cheers.

Executing unix script within java and getting the return value

Hi
I am executing a unix script from within java which will return me a value. Is there a way I get this value and use it inside my java code without doing this:
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( ls_proc.getInputStream() ));
//readLine reads in one line of text
int k = 1, i = 0;
while (( ls_str = in.readLine()) != null)
--kirk123

I was hoping to get what I want in one or two line codes.
