How can i run unix script from my apex page

how can i run unix script from my apex page and take the output of unix script as a hidden variable and display it on the report region of that page

I had a requirement to run a Fortran program against some data that woudl be extracted from the database after the user set up their filtering criteria and made some additional input. SInce the program was to complex to conver to PL/SQL, we decided to try and invoke it from Apex. This is how I did it.
1. I followed the steps in Tim Archer's excellent article "Oracle External Procedure to Run Host Commands" (http://www.timarcher.com/?q=node/9). If the link does nto work, google the article's title.
Using this steps I created a function which accepts any OS command, including calling my own shell scripts, and runs them. I called my PL/SQL function "shell" instead of "USF_RUN_HOST_CMD " as Tim did in his example (step 9).
2. In Apex,
a. I created a button to run my shell command. (I named it P2_RUN_SHELL)
b. I created a PL/SQL process whose source looks as follows:
shell('/home/ackness/scripts/cr_xcf_file.sh > /tmp/cr_scfp_file.log');
and which was conditioned on the the button P2_RUN_SHELL.
It works like a charm.
Note: since you can run your own scripts using this method, you can encapsulate a series of commands in a UNIX shell script and invoke that script from Apex. This allows you to be able to test or run you commands from the command line as well as Apex and makes it easier to develop/debug/enhance the scripts in the future.

Running Unix script from stored procedure

At present, I run a unix script to export my data for backup using telnet. I would like my users to run the commands on their own without my help. My users do not know telnet (they have no IT knowledge). So, I plan to create a form using Developer/2000 and let them run the procedure thru a stored procedure.But, my problem is how can a stored procedure call a unix script?

Hi,
solution, used by me.
Create a stored procedure that produces a text file with utl_file. The content of the file is the script you want to execute on your Unix box.
On your Unix Box write a shell script that scans the utl_file_dir for Files. If a file is in, chmod 744 to grnt execute rights to it and execute it.
I have a example if you want.
Start the script with crontab or let it loop with a sleep inside.

How can i do this.
thanks,

Hi,

This java application is on windows.
So I think it's safe to assume that the target script is on a remote unix server.

How to run a Unix Script from a specific user

Hi,
I want to run a GoldenGate related unix script from a super user. I have created crontab enter from that super user. But its still running from root user. As GGSCI cannot be invoked other than super user, the Script is failing.
The Script is running fine on command prompt and from "at" batch job command.
Please give me a way to run the script from a specific user on Cron
Thanks,
Saravana

Hi.
can you show:
grep root /etc/passwd
grep <super user> /etc/passwd (It's not clear for me, what you call super user. For me - root is super user. )
ls -la /var/spool/cron/crontabs
Generaly for add cronjobs for any user need:
crontab -e <username>
For more information - man crontab

Can we run a unix script from sql plus

Hello,
Is there any possibility to run unix command from sql plus? I would appreciate if you can provide with the syntax.
Thank You

Thank You
KKWithin sqlplus you can run
1) SQL statements
2) PL/SQL blocks
3) any valid sqlplus command.
SQLplus commands are documented in the SQLPlus reference manual. For 10g this is found at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/toc.htm. You might be interested in the HOST command, detailed at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/ch12026.htm#sthref2314
Just beware that the HOST command (or the shortcut version of it alluded to by Warren Tolentino) spawns a child process. When control comes back to sqlplus, that child process is gone.
What is the business problem you are trying to solve? If we knew that we could probably give better advice than blindly giving you the correct technical answer to a narrow question.

Executing Unix scripts from a stored procedure

From the sql*plus windows, I am able to execute the host command and '!sh' commands; but I need to ececute Unix scripts from a stored procedure. Hoe can I do this? Where can I get good documentation on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks..

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 !!!!!..

How to run unix command from Oracle Foms 10g

OS: UNIX Solaries, Oracle Application Server 10g
To run shell script from Oracle Forms, I used the following host('/bin/bash /u01/compile.sh') and it works well
Now, I need to run unix command something like
host('mv form1.fmx FORM1.FMX') but it's not working
I tried to append the command "mv form1.fmx FORM1.FMX" to the compile.sh shell script but also it's not working although the rest lines of the shell script is running well

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
6. setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH .

Accessing unix script from Apex

Hi There,
Is it possible to access unix script from apex?
Or to run a batch file through apex?
Please help!!
Thanks in advance,
Pushpesh Pallav

The solution depends on the purpose of the script.
"I want to run a database backup"
learn RMAN, create an RMAN repository, and have Oracle backup itself
"I want to backup a schema on demand"
use dbms_datapump
"I want to put/get a blob to/from a file on an internal machine"
one method:
Install and register Oracle Agent on internal machine
use dbms_scheduler.put_file()/get_file()
"I want to get a file on an external machine that is available via HTTP(s)"
I've used ORDDoc( 'http://...' ) to get this file.
"I want to run the script and parse the results. - no input parameters are needed"
Enhance the script to return CSV like results
Then, create an EXTERNAL TABLE with a preprocessor
".. and the script returns performance matrix of a server"
I believe Oracle has already written (and incorporated) those scripts.
"..and the script checks to see if a new file exists"
DBMS_SCHEDULER.FILE_WATCHER()
"I want to give it some parameters,run the script, and then parse the results"
Wrap the script with SOAP/REST.
Example wrapper stuff:
