Run .sh in UNIX shell

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone knew how to run a .sh file in the UNIX shell cygwin through LabVIEW. I will need to open cygwin (I'm guessing through the sysexec.vi) then I need to load the .sh file into it and keep it open. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?
Thanks

STigmata08,
For starters, .sh files and cygwin are not something I am familiar with, but for the link below should get you started using cygwin with LabVIEW.

Good luck!

Running SQLPLUS from UNIX shell script

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but...
How can I execute a sql file from inside the UNIX shell script, logging on to Oracle w/o supplying a UID/pwd? Normally, we log into UNIX using our own logon, then sudo as another user to login to Oracle. Now, I'm trying to create a UNIX shell script, where I'm already sudo'd as the UserID that logs into Oracle. I've tried the following, but can't get it to work. I'm a UNIX scripting noob. Any ideas?
example:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
sqlplus / \@test.sql << EOF
exit;
EOF

I'm a UNIX scripting noob.In which case I feel obligated to point you at William Robertson's excellent article Database Shellscripts Considered Harmful. Save yourself a world of pain.

Using a UNIX shell script to run a Java program (packaged in a JAR)

Hi,
I have an application (very small) that connects to our database. It needs to run in our UNIX environment so I've been working on a shell script to set the class path and call the JAR file. I'm not making a lot of progress on my own. I've attached the KSH (korn shell script) file code.
Thanks in advance to anyone who knows how to set the class path and / or call the JAR file.
loggedinuser="$(whoami)"
CFG_DIR="`dirname $0`"
EXIT_STATUS=${SUCCESS}
export PATH=/opt/java1.3/bin:$PATH
OLDDIR="`pwd`"
cd $PLCS_ROOT_DIR
java -classpath $
EXIT_STATUS=$?
cd $OLDDIR
echo $EXIT_STATUS
exit $EXIT_STATUS

Hi,
I have an application (very small) that connects to
our database. It needs to run in our UNIX environment
so I've been working on a shell script to set the
class path and call the JAR file.
#!/bin/sh
exec /your/path/to/java -cp your:class:paths:here -MoreJvmOptionsHere your.package.and.YourClass "$@"Store this is a file of any name, e.g. yuckiduck, and then change the persmissions to executechmod a+x yuckiduckThe exec makes sure the shell used to run the script does not hang around until that java program finishes. While this is only a minor thing, it is nevertheless infinite waste, because it does use some resources but the return on that investment is 0.
CFG_DIR="`dirname $0`"You would like to fetch the directory of the installation out of $0. This breaks as soon as someone makes a (soft) link in some other directory to this script and calls it by its soft linked name. Your best bet if you don't know a lot of script programming is to hardcode CFG_DIR.
OLDDIR="`pwd`"
cd $PLCS_ROOT_DIRVery bad technique in UNIX. UNIX supports the notion of a "current directory". If your user calls this program in a certain directory, you should assume that (s)he does this on purpose. Making your application dependent on a start in a certain directory ignores the very helpful concept of 'current directory' and is therefore a bug.
cd $OLDDIRThis has no effect at all because it only affects the next two lines of code and nothing else. These two lines, however, don't depend on the current directory. In particular this (as the cd above) does not change the current directory for the interactive shell your user is working in.
echo $EXIT_STATUS
exit $EXIT_STATUSEchoing the exit status is an interesting idea, but if you don't do this for a very specific purpose, I recommend not to do this for the simple reason that no other UNIX program does it.

Unix shell script should execute (run) webI report.

Hi
i am new to BO.
I have webI reports developed, can any one tell me how to execute a webI reprot using unix sheel script.

Hello Vijaya,
Thatu2019s an interesting question. BusinessObjects does not supply any native UNIX shell interfaces or scripts for running/executing Webi Reports. Not knowing what it is you are exactly trying to accomplish Iu2019ll give a very general answer.
I have had several customers who had requirements to have external systems execute, refresh and export reports in BusinessObjects Enterprise before. These external systems could execute a shell script so what they have ended up doing is creating generic Java applications that use the BusinessObjects BOE Java SDK. Once they had the Java application created their external application could execute a java directory or they created shell wrappers that were called. So what you could do is create some Java applications that wrap the functionally you need and then execute those from the command line.
With that said there is a lot of functionally built into BusinessObjects Enterprise. If I was to know exactly what you were trying to achieve I might be able to point you in the direction of an existing product feature.
Cheers,
David.

Exit status running java classpath in a unix shell script

I'm new to putting java into unix scripts. I have a java classpath running inside of a unix shell script. During my testing it will error with java.io.FileNotFoundException error, which I know why that is, but when I set in my unix shell script this to see the right exit status of success/fail, it always shows a 0 for success when that isn't really the case. Below is the two lines I have set to capture the exit status and just display that exit status for now.
notifycode=$?
echo $notifycode
I have these 2 lines above on a line right below my java command in my unix shell script. How can I get my unix shell script to show the right exit status if the java classpath command fails? Thanks for any help.

That's Java code, it says "End this Java application and send return code 1 back to the shell". As for how the shell gets the return code from the application, that's a question about your shell and not about Java programming, no?

Please don't overwhelm us with so many details!
Just off the top of my head ... as a general approach ... something like
nohup proca
nohup procb
nohup procc
while (some condition checking that all three procs are still running ... maybe a ps -ef |grep )
do
sleep 2
done
procd
But, we'd really need to know what it is you are really trying to accomplish, instead of your pre-conceived solution.

Can I run a Unix shell when insert some record on a specific table?

Can I run a Unix shell when insert some record on a specific table?
I need to run a Unix shell when a record be insert on a table. Is there a way in order to do that?
THanks,

1. Make a backup of the extproc.c file in the c:\orant\rdbms80\extproc
directory.
2. Create a file called extern.c in the c:\orant\rdbms80\extproc directory.
The "extern.c" file :
#include <oci.h>
#define NullValue -1
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
long __declspec(dllexport) OutputString(context ,
                         path , path_ind ,
                         message , message_ind,
                         filemode , filemode_ind ,
                         len , len_ind )
char *path;

text *error_msg;
/* Allocate space for the error message text, and set it up.
We do not have to free this memory - PL/SQL will do that automatically. */

          i++;

fclose(file_handle);
3. Use the make.bat available in the c:\orant\rdbms80\extproc directory. You
need to run vcvars32.bat file before running this batch file. This will
create a dll file.
4. Configure the tnsnames.ora and the listener.ora files.
The tnsnames.ora should contain the following entries.
extproc_connection_data.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = IPC)
(KEY = ORCL)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = extproc)
The listener.ora should contain the following entries.
# P:\ORANT\NET80\ADMIN\LISTENER.ORA Configuration File:p:\orant\net80\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant
LISTENER8 =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = winnt_nsc)(PORT = 1521))
SID_LIST_LISTENER8=
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = winnt_nsc)
(SID_NAME = ORCL)
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = extproc)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
5. Login from sqlplus and issue the following statements.
create library externProcedures as 'C:\orant\RDBMS80\EXTPROC\extern.dll';
Create or replace PROCEDURE OutputString(
p_Path IN VARCHAR2,
p_Message IN VARCHAR2,
p_mode in VARCHAR2,
p_NumLines IN BINARY_INTEGER) AS EXTERNAL

Run Unix command / Run Unix shell script from Forms9i

Hi,
I have a requirement to run Unix command and Unix shell scripts from Forms9i.
I know HOST command cannot be used directly. I also know we can create some JAVA stored procedure to perform the task, but I don't want to create any JAVA stored procedure as there are some security concerns.
Please point me towards any other way to achieve the same.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Kumar

There is no reason why HOST can't be used. This is what it is for. As for using Java, it is not a stored procedure that you would be using, it would be imported Java (imported into the form).
The best way to use the HOST command is to call a script (.sh) rather than calling a Unix command directly. This is because HOST will not pick up environment variables set at the system level. So the script would first need to set the necessary environment variables then call the desired commands.

How to run Unix Shell Scripts

I hope someone knows Unix better me. I created a shell script to run some ap comp sci classes, and whenever I want to run the script, I'm forced to type:
"./runMBS", while I want to just type "runMBS". Any suggestions will be nice.
Thanks

If you only type the name of a command (or script) the Unix shell only looks for those commands in the directories specified in the $PATH variable. If you provide a full or partial path to the command then the shell will run the command at that location... that's why including "./" in front of your shell script works... it tells the shell to run the command in the current directory (ie "./").
You can either:
- move your shell script to one of the directories specified in your $PATH variable
or
- add the directory containing your shell script to your $PATH
To modify the $PATH so that it includes the directory your script resides in use something like this in your .bash_profile:
<pre>
PATH=$PATH:/path/to/scriptdir
export PATH
</pre>
Although it's possible to include "./" in your PATH, it's not advisable and can present security problems. Read this explanation for more information.

Running stored procedure from unix shell

Hi
I have a stored procedure proc1 stored in a file, code1.txt in my home directory /home/user. How do i execute this file which contains the stored procedure from unix shell? I would really appreciate it if somebody gives me the complete shell script to accomplish the above task.
Thanks.

To put everything together into a single posting:
The EXEC command is a SQL*Plus macro command. It is not a SQL or PL/SQL command.
The only way to execute a stored proc from a client, is to wrap the call in an anonymous PL/SQL block. I.e you need a BEGIN and END PL/SQL wrapper around the call.
E.g.BEGIN
-- calling a stored proc to start leave processing
scott.StartLeaveProcessing;
END;The EXEC macro in SQL*Plus does this automatically for you. Thus less typing. But do not confuse this command with the PL/SQL language.
Second issue. Use bind variables when making calls from clients. And not just for SQL statements, but also for PL/SQL. Unfortuantely this tends to be a hack in SQL*Plus due to the way SQL*Plus itself treats its bind variable assignments. But in principle, this is what you should do when calling an Oracle stored proc from a client:
SQL> -- define a host variable
SQL> var EMPID varchar2(100)
SQL> var FROM_DEPT number
SQL> var TO_DEDPT number;
SQL>
SQL> -- assign values to these (this is where SQL*Plus hacks it)
SQL> exec :EMPID := 100;
SQL> exec :FROM_DEPT := 1;
SQL> exec :TO_DEPT := 2;
SQL>
SQL> -- now make the stored proc call for moving employee 100 from
SQL> -- department 1 to department 2
SQL> EXEC scott.EmployeeTransfer( :EMPID, :FROM_DEPT, :TO_DEPT );
SQL>To do this from a Unix shell script:
#!/bin/bash
# environment variables
# --> put environment such as ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, TWO_TASK
# etc. here <--
# redirect STDIN from TTY (keyboard typewriter device) to the input from
# this file - which means SQL*Plus will not read from the keyboard but read
# from this file its input until the EOF marker/text is encountered
sqlplus -s /nolog << EOF
connect scott/tiger
var EMPID varchar2(100)
var FROM_DEPT number
var TO_DEDPT number;
exec :EMPID := 100;
exec :FROM_DEPT := 1;
exec :TO_DEPT := 2;
exec scott.EmployeeTransfer( :EMPID, :FROM_DEPT, :TO_DEPT );
exit;
EOF
#eof

Calling a report from unix shell script

Hi,
I had to call a report from unix shell script.
May i know the procedure to accomplish this
Thanks in Advance
A.Gopal

First you should not include the whole path to your report in the call ...
Use like this:
/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/bin/rwrun.sh report=an_stati destype=file desname=/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/test.pdf desformat=pdf
In $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh:
1) Verify that you have updated the REPORTS_PATH variable to include your folder where you have the report in question
REPORTS_PATH=/ora/u20/app/qits/env1/run:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/templates:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/samples/demo: ....
2) Verify that the REPORTS_TMP variable is pointing to a valid location and that the oracle user has access to write on it.
After that, post the content of the tracefile located at $ORACLE_HOME/reports/logs/{in-process report server name folder}/rwserver.trc
If no file is present then it means that you need to enable trace in your reports's conf file.... go to the $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf folder and and locate the .conf file that correspond to your in-process reports server name (as specified in the rwservelet.properties file)... open/edit the file to enable trace logs ..
i.e.
Change the following line:

to <trace traceOpts="trace_all"/>
Bounce the reports server and try to run the report again, this time the .trc file should be generated, post the content so that we can take a look.
