Problems running bat file with calls to java programs (.jar)

I created a bat file with calls to jar programs. In each line,
I put a call to the programs with parameters, but bat only
executes the first line and ends execution.
All lines of my bat file must be executed.
What should I do?
Best Regards,
Pedro Felipe

I realized that the problem isn`t my bat file. I made tests calling another jar files and then all the lines of the batch file were executed. So, the jar file called on my previous bat is finnishing the execution. I verified and the jar apps worked without error.
I would like to know if exists any command in Java that can cause this effect (close a batch), to modify the open source code of the application.Not that I know of.
Is prism a bat file?
If you are invoking bat files from your bat file without using call that would explain it
:: mymain.bat file
:: call the first bat file
call prism.bat arg1 arg2 arg3
:: call the other bat file
call prism.bat arg4 arg5 arg6
::

Run .bat file with arguments?

Hi,
   I need to run the .bat file with parameters/arguments in Adode Indesign JavaScript. "File.execute()" executes the file using the appropriate application.It executes the .bat file suceessfully.But I am unable to pass the arguments.I need to execute the command like
Eg : test.bat parameter1 parameter2
var myFile=new File("c:\\test.bat");
myFile.execute();
The above statements works fine. Is it possible to execute the with parameters. Please suggest the solution to above problem.

Hi,
let VB start the *.bat. this works for me:
#target InDesign
doTheBat('START "" "C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\\Photoshop.exe"')//Start Photoshop, just a example
function doTheBat ( _data ) {
        try
            var _file = new File('~/myTmpBat.bat');
        _file.open( 'w' );
        _file.encoding = 'UTF-8';
    _file.writeln ( _data );
    _file.close();
    //_file.execute();
    myVBScript = "Set WshShell = CreateObject(\"WScript.Shell\")\r";
myVBScript += "WshShell.Run chr(34) & \"C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%\\myTmpBat.bat\" & Chr(34), 0\r";
myVBScript += "Set WshShell = Nothing\r";
myVBScript += "\r";
app.doScript(myVBScript, ScriptLanguage.VISUAL_BASIC);
    }catch (e){ alert(e);
Good luck

Help! problem running .bat files in browser

HI! Hope you can help me!
I have a simple applet that runs .bat files and retrieves the resulting information into a text box.
To run those files I use:
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process processo=rt.exec("C:/po2PrtMonitor.bat 04600105 ope >C:/infoPrt.txt");
in wich "04600105","ope" and ">C:/infoPrt.txt" are parameters that the .bat file is expecting. When the file is ran it saves the resulting information on a simple .txt file, that I later read by using:
fichResposta = new FileInputStream(fichRespostaPath[0]);
When I run my applet on JDeveolper 9.0.2.822 is works perfectly, the problem is when run it on the browser.
On the browser the applet executes the file by opening a MS-DOS prompt and when it finishes executing the file, the prompt closes automatically and doesn't send the information into the .txt file.
My .bat file is something like:
jre -cp PrtSrv20.jar sibs.deswin.prt.PrtMonGateway 10.46.1.22 5003 %1 %2 %3
where %1,2%,3% are the above parameters given by the applet when the file is ran.
If I run it on JDeveloper I get:
C:\>jre -cp PrtSrv20.jar sibs.deswin.prt.PrtMonGateway 10.46.1.22 5003 04600105 ope
PRTSES=04600105 HDR=0460010000000005 STA=OPENED TRF=ACTIVE TRP=CONN ILTS=15 Long postings are being truncated to ~1 kB at this time.

Here is what is missing:
ILT=0 MSQ=388 HDR=04.60.01.00.00.00.00.05.41.00.01.84. CMD=STRT-TRF
When the applet is run on the IE broser what I get is simply:
jre -cp PrtSrv20.jar sibs.deswin.prt.PrtMonGateway 10.46.1.22 5003 04601005 ope
I have no idea as to what the problem might be! Do native methods work differently on the browser?! Could it be a problem on the deployment? A library not included on the deployment profile? Suggestions are very welcome.

Problems running jsp files with tags on tomcat 4.0

hi,
i had some jsp1.1 stuff running on tomcat3.3.
last week i moved to tomcat 4.0 , changed the tags to fit jsp1.2 and... everything is wrong now. while trying to run jsp with tags i get an error message (same for all files):
---->
description The server encountered an internal error (Internal Server Error) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.
exception
javax.servlet.ServletException: (class: org/apache/jsp/djsp$jsp, method: _jspService signature: (Ljavax/servlet/http/HttpServletRequest;Ljavax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse; )V) Incompatible object argument for function call
<-------
the jsp files with no tags and servlets are running ok.
I NEED YOUR HELP!!!

cyclid,
i have the same environment setup and the same troubles. after searching the forums, it seems that there are others with the same, if not similar issues, yet no solutions. if you find the solution to this one, could you please post it. i would really appreciate it since i have been on this one for several days with no success. i even tried the helloworld jsp/custom tag examples from a jsp profession book that i have and that won't work.
Anyone out there,
if you have any idea why this problem exists, any solutions, ideas would be appreciated.
thank you,

              // read the output from the command
              String s = null;
              System.out.println("Here is the standard output of the command:\n");
              while ((s = stdInput.readLine()) != null) {
                   System.out.println(s);
              // read any errors from the attempted command
              System.out.println("Here is the standard error of the command (if any):\n");
              while ((s = stdError.readLine()) != null) {
                   System.out.println(s);Thanks

So what? It wouldn't run two batch files on a command shell, either. You need to call them separately. The way you do it, you just pass the name of the second batch to the first as an argument.

Java virtual machine error: in running bat file!!!

Hi experts!
I have encounterd a problem . Could not figure out why I am having this. I hope at least I will get a clue /suggestion from any of you.
I am creating a bat file from my java Application. Then I double click on the newly created bat file to run that. It gives me Java virtual machine launcher error:" could not find the main class, Progam will exit". I have a VB script, that also create the same bat file. but I dont have problem running that file manually. Even if I create the bat file manually(by typing), it ran well. It shows the error mesage only when I create bat file from my java Application. Instead of running the bat file manually, I tried to run it through my java application too(by Runtime.exec() ). But it shows me the same error msg.
Why am I getting java virtual machine launcher error when I tried to run my bat file that is created from java Application? ANy clue? Please suggest me about how to resolve this.
Regards

Probably because (despite what you say) the contents of the bat file created by your Java application aren't the same as the contents of those other bat files.Yes contents are same. I create the bat file from my java Application. then I am trying to run that bat file manually. It gives me the specified error. But if I create the bat file manually (with the same content) and then run it manually. It works well.
Any clue/suggestion

How to run a .bat file with string arguments?

Hi,
I have a problem in running a .bat file with string arguments
- the file is XPathOverlap.bat with 2 stringarguments like: "/a" and "//a"
- the cmd: c:\Downloads>XPathOverlap "//a" "/a" works fine.
- here is my code:
public static void test(){
     try{
          String loc1 = "//a";
          String loc2 = "/a";
          String[] cmdarray = {"c:\Downloads\XPathOverlap", loc1, loc2};
          Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmdarray);
          p.waitFor();
          System.out.println("Exit Value: "+p.exitValue());
          //code to print command line replies
          InputStream cmdReply = p.getInputStream();
          InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(cmdReply);
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
          String line = null;
          while((line=br.readLine())!=null){
               System.out.println(line);
     }catch(Throwable t){
          t.printStackTrace();
How can i run this bat file with 2 string arguments?

Hi,
thanks thats good and helpfully
so this code works:
String loc1 = "\"/a\"";
String loc2 = "\"//a\"";
String path = System.getenv("MuSatSolver");
String[] cmdarray = {"cmd.exe","/C",path+"XPathOverlap.bat", loc1, loc2};
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmdarray);
p.waitFor();
System.out.println("Exit Value: "+p.exitValue());
InputStream cmdErr = p.getErrorStream();
InputStreamReader isrErr = new InputStreamReader(cmdErr);
BufferedReader brErr = new BufferedReader(isrErr);
String line2 = null;
while((line2=brErr.readLine())!=null){
     System.out.println("Error: "+line2);
but now i have another problem, this is the output:
Exit Value: 0
Error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: fr/inrialpes/wam/treelogic/_xml/XPathOverlap
Error: Exception in thread "main" The Exit value is 0, so the process terminates normally.
I have tested this bat file in cmd and there it works correctly.
Why do i get this error message?

How to write run.bat files

Can anyone tell me how to write run.bat files to run java classes. Currently my run.bat file has the following two lines,
c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin\javac.exe *.java
c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin\java.exe questionnair
But the class is not executed. Thanks in advance.

you'll have to provide more details.
Firstly, which package is the class a part of? and secondly, where on the filesystem is the root of the package?
You might also benifit from placing the c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin\ into the classpath.
On a rainy day, check out the ANT tool, it will take care of all that crapola for you.

How to run two files with same url- urgent

hi,
i created two servlet page and both are working very fine.but at same time i only able to run one file with same url. Is possible to run two or more file at same time with same url name..
if you r not understanding what i want to ask then, i have two file names under helloWeb directory
1) helloWorld.java(servletname s1, url /man)
2) helloWeb.java (servletname s2,url /man)
to run - http://localhost:7001/helloWeb/man - it runs very first file which is added to deployment module.
so i want to know how i can run both file with same url, for this what i have to pass on my address bar.
plz help me i m wating
<b></b>

Hi,
We can give same url mapping to both Servlets but we can access the servlet which is entered first in web.xml because whenever we send a request to the webserver then webserver look at the elements in web.xml file one by one.
When it finds the corresponding url mapping then immediately sends the response to the client.The same url mapping for the next element will be ignored.
I think there is no possibility to access both servlets with same url.

Calling a java program from a perl CGI

The perl program takes form data, does stuff with it, writes it to a file, and then calls a java program to encrypt it, and email it.
When I telnet to the server, I can run the java program using:
java CryptoMail.class [email protected] data.txt
The java program uses jar files which are defined in the Classpath in an .sh script in the etc/profile.d/ directory.
When I run the perl cgi from the web, it doesn't work. I figured that it wasn't getting the classpath defined because the user wasn't actually logging in so I tried it with java -classpath etc...
Any ideas???
I tried the following:
==================
$cmdtorun='/usr/j2sdk1.4.0_02/bin/java CryptoMail $email $file';
system($cmdtorun);
==================
and also tried variations of the following:
==================
/usr/j2sdk1.4.0_02/bin/java -classpath .:/home/sites/site1/web/cgi-bin/activation.jar:/home/sites/site1/web/cgi-bin/mail.jar /home/sites/site1/web/cgi-bin/CryptoMail [email protected] /home/sites/site1/web/cgi-bin/wellsfargo.txt
==================

>
Any ideas???Write a script file that explicitly paths everything.
Test it by setting the class path and path to nothing in the environment and seeing if it works.
Redirect errors from everything to a log file.
Then run the script from your perl program. Verify that it did not return any errors. Verify there are no errors in the log file.

GOT IT !!!
I had to change the name of the method in .h file generated by javah command. On doing
javac -d ../../classes HelloWorld.java
go to the ../../classes directory (where you have the class file) and do
javah HelloWorld
I got a HelloWorld.h file in which I had
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_HelloWorld_display(JNIEnv *, jobject);
I added the package name too:
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_GUI_HelloWorld_display(JNIEnv *, jobject);
The HelloWorldImp.c file should have the same name (ie with package) and be in the same directory(ie ../../classes)
compile and build the shared library to get "libhello.so" file
gcc -c -fPIC -I/usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/include -I/usr/lib/j2sdk1.3/include/linux HelloWorldImp.c
gives .o file
gcc -shared -o libhello.so HelloWorldImp.o
gives .so file
then run java with the command in my first message. It works.
Thanks for the reply "thedracle".
