Executing a UNIX shell script using SM49

I have been trying all sorts of things to get this to work and I have been un-successful
I am trying to run the UNIX script using SM49. the command line that I am using is
/test/directory/bin/testmail.sh
the script testmail.sh looks like
#!/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/mailx -s testmail <email address>
I have tried all sorts of combinations to run this script
example
sh /test/directory/bin/testmail.sh
/test/directory/bin/testmail.sh %f
/test/directory/bin/testmail.sh %F
does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to run successfully. once I get this to run successfully in SM49, I am going to try it in the intregration builder of my PI process.

Hi,
considering authorization issues, you can use
CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
    EXPORTING
      commandname                         = 'LIST_DB2DUMP'
      additional_parameters               = l_path
     operatingsystem                      = 'UNIX'
    TABLES
      exec_protocol                       = lt_btcxpm
    EXCEPTIONS
to extract information about files on the server
I used this code to get detailed information for display including the attributes
LOOP AT lt_btcxpm ASSIGNING <btcxpm>
    WHERE length > 57
      AND ( NOT message+57 CO '. '
            OR  message+57 = '..' )
      AND ( message(1) = 'd' OR
            message(1) = 'l' OR
            message(1) = '-' ).
    l_srvfil-type  = <btcxpm>-message(1).
    IF l_srvfil-type  = '-'.
      l_srvfil-type = 'F'.
    ENDIF." l_srvfil-type  = '-'.
    TRANSLATE l_srvfil-type TO UPPER CASE.               "#EC TRANSLANG
    l_srvfil-file  = <btcxpm>-message+57.
    CONDENSE l_srvfil-file.
    l_srvfil-attri = <btcxpm>-message+1(9).
*    l_srvfil-time = <btcxpm>-message+44(12).
    l_srvfil-size = <btcxpm>-message+32(11).
    APPEND l_srvfil TO lt_srvfil.
  ENDLOOP." at lt_BTCXPM assigning <BTCXPM>.
  pt_srvfil = lt_srvfil.
For the srvfil information I used this structure
BEGIN OF typ_srvfil,
  %_box  TYPE flag,                                         "#EC *
  type   TYPE char01,
  attri  TYPE isp_rel,
  file   TYPE file,
  name   TYPE file,
  size   TYPE sytleng,
  owner  TYPE sy-uname,
  mod_date TYPE sydatum,
  mod_time TYPE syuzeit,
  END OF typ_srvfil,
I do not remember exactly how the attribute information is resolved. In Unix all file system authorizations can be set as for the user, the group or for all and it can be read, write, execute granted. If you are no unix expert, ask one or google/wiki for some details.
I wrote a program for navigation, display, and some more functions on the file system which is too big to post here and is not fully system-independent. Not perfect but useful and more than 5 years old. Contact me by mail if you want it.

Clemens

  • Execute a unix shell script from forms9i

    Hi ,
    I would like to execute a unix shell script form a form when they pressed a button. The forms server is on Linux machine. I tried but when I pressed the button nothings happen. Could some one please help me how I could get working.
    Is there is a way I could execute the unix shell script from PL/SQL proceudre or package.
    Please some one help me.
    Bain

    You would not expect to see anything happening because the
    script cannot directly send output to the web form. However, you can get it to write output to a file and use web.show_document in the form after the host command to display the file and see the output.

  • 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().

    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.
    Regards,

    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)?

  • Error while executing unix shell script from java program

    Hi All,
    I am trying to execute unix shell script from a java program using Runtime.execute() method by passing script name and additional arguments.
    Code snippet :

  • Executing Unix shell scripts with DBMS_SCHEDULER

    I have the following Unix shell script create_backup_file.sh:
    #!/usr/bin/ksh
    /usr/bin/ssh [email protected] /usr/bin/touch/app_home/home/trotestbat/scripts/TRO_batch_complete_`date +%d-%m-%Y-%H%M`
    If I execute this from the command prompt it creates the file on the remote server.
    I've used dbms_scheduler to try and execute this from Oracle:
    BEGIN
    SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_PROGRAM
    program_name => 'CREATE_TRO_BACKUP_FILE'
    ,program_type => 'EXECUTABLE'
    ,program_action => '/APP/TORPEDO/DTE/SCRIPTS/create_backup_file_tro.sh'
    ,number_of_arguments => 0
    ,enabled => TRUE
    ,comments => NULL
    SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB
    job_name => 'DTE.TESTAGAIN'
    ,start_date => TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ('2010/05/17 16:09:24.710789 +01:00','yyyy/mm/dd
    hh24:mi:ss.ff tzh:tzm')
    ,repeat_interval => NULL
    ,end_date => NULL
    ,program_name => 'DTE.CREATE_TRO_BACKUP_FILE'
    ,comments => NULL
    END;
    The problem I have is that scheduler executes the shell script and creates the file but it never completes the job. The status of the job is permanently 'RUNNING'. Why is the scheduler not returning a completed status?

    the "infinite" script is usually caused by a prompt (script pauses for a user input).
    Please keep in mind that executing script via scheduler is not the same as manually via prompt.
    1. the script runs as ORACLE user ID (or whatever you specified using DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_credential or/and "$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora")
    2. the environment variables are probably not the same.
    My wild guess is that you never ran SSH using "oracle" UID and thus it prompts for permission to add the remote computer’s fingerprint to the user’s ~/.ssh/known_hosts file - since it is a script, it just hangs and waits for input.
    Did you try to login to unix box as oracle uid and run the script manually?

    Sounds like you either have a corrupt class file or you're using an older version of the JVM to try to execute classe that were compiled for a newer version.
