Running a remote script

Hi,
at the company i work for , we started using the Flash Media
Server. Nice stuff, got it up and running.
Now there is an issue. Is it possible to run a remote script
that resides on the same server as FMS? It's for the following
scenario :
A user uploads an flv-video, and after he presses save, that
video needs to be distributed amoungst other servers in different
countries. We've got the script read that will wait until it is
executed and that copy the given file around.
So i'm wondering if there is a way in server-side
actionscript to make a call to a script outside of FMS. Something
like External(scriptname,arguments) or such. Is this possible in
FMS?

No, you would need to call a PHP/ASP/CFM server side file to
do that. You can do that with the loadVars object.

Secure login to remote UNIX host and run a shell script

Hi I am new to JAVA. I want to login to remote UNIX host from my application secure login (SSH) and run a shell script reside that remote host. Can any one let me know the way how to do it. If possible provide the code example.

Runtime.exec with an ssh command (not really recommended).
Much better, an SSH API (JSch, which needs JZlib, from http://www.jcraft.com/ is a good one).

Assistance with my script to find all opened windows (applications running) on remote computer

Hello,
I have the following script whereby I want to list all the running (opened) applications on a remote computer. It's a shared computer between two people who use the same generic ID. Before one RDP's into it, I thought it would be interesting
to see if any apps are opened before logging in.
Here is the code:
$cred = Get-Credential
Invoke-Command -ComputerName server123 {Get-Process *mail* | Where {$_.MainWindowHandle} | Select Name,MainWindowTitle} -Cred $cred
It works in that it asks for my credentials and runs without any error...but this script also does not display any running applications. I'm not sure what it should show. Perhaps I need to add a line of code to display what it found?
Another bit of info I would like to use in this script is to also confirm that the generic ID is logged in at the time I run this script. I could use the following bit of code:
get-wmiobject Win32_ComputerSystem -computername server123 | format-table -property username
But when I run this code I get an access denied message. I'm assuming I need to use the Get-Credential again from my first script, but I'm unsure how to use it in the get-wmiobject?
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Ok...shifting gears again. Instead of running this remotely I'm thinking of running a scheduled task on the server and creating this .htm file. That way no one has to run and enter in credentials (and if entered wrong cause issues with locking
out the account). So, I've modified my script and confirmed that when I run it from Powershell when logged into the server, the results file correctly shows the logged in userid and the running applications (windows) I have opened.
But, when I run this same exact script from my task scheduler, the running applications piece is blank? The server I'm running this on is Windows Server 2008. I've tried running it from Task Scheduler using Powershell and from a .bat file that
calls my Powershell script. Both ways results in my .htm file not showing any applications running. Yet when I run the same script (either from Powershell or the .bat file) the .htm file correctly shows the running applications. My Task Scheduler
Job is using the same user id that I'm logged in with so there shouldn't be any permission issues with running from the task scheduler.
Here is my code:
$a = "<style>"
$a = $a + "BODY{background-color:peachpuff;}"
$a = $a + "TABLE{border-width: 1px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;border-collapse: collapse;}"
$a = $a + "TH{border-width: 1px;padding: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;background-color:thistle}"
$a = $a + "TD{border-width: 1px;padding: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: black;background-color:PaleGoldenrod}"
$a = $a + "</style>"
get-wmiobject Win32_ComputerSystem | ConvertTo-HTML -head $a -body "<H2>Logged in UserID</H2>" -property username | Out-File C:\Powershell_Scripts\Test.htm ; Get-Process |where {$_.mainWindowTItle} |Select-Object name,mainwindowtitle | ConvertTo-HTML -head $a -body "<H2>Open Applications</H2>" | Out-File C:\Powershell_Scripts\Test.htm -Append
Can anyone tell me what might be the reason for the script running from the scheduled task having issues?
Thank you.

Execution of remote script in File Adapter OS Command

Hello.
I'm having issues with a remote script placed on a file adapter which fails to execute in a clustered PI (Version 7.1), running on Windows 2008.
Our current setup is as follows.
- Machine A and Machine B make up a SAP PI Cluster node.
- Machine C is our network file share, used as a sandbox for receiving and sending files.
One given scenario would be having the Cluster picking up a file from a FTP folder (Machine D) and copying it over to a given location in Machine C. This is working without problems in the cluster environment.
Now, a very specific scenario requires that after copying the file (to folder INPUT), a given script shall be executed over the received file and decide which folder should that file be archived, TO_PROCESS or NO_PROCESS folders.
So, Outbound Channel is reading from the FTP, Inbound Channel stores in Machine C and has to run a script after message processing.
The problem here is that the script is stored also in Machine C, so placing the OS Command should refer to a shared path:
Example:
sap-machine-c.gca.ad.root\InboundFiles\INPUT
sap-machine-c.gca.ad.root\InboundFiles\TO_PROCESS
sap-machine-c.gca.ad.root\InboundFiles\NO_PROCESS
sap-machine-c.gca.ad.root\Scripts\procFile.bat
If I give the command of "
sap-machine-c.gca.ad.root\Scripts\procFile.bat %F" on the receiver channel, checking RWB, Communication channel says the command was executed with success but the file doesn't leave the INPUT folder.
The script is know to execute with success from both instances, I have logged into each one of them and executed with RFCUSER in SE38 w/transaction RSBDCOS0.
I have tried to replicate this issue, reducing even the procFile.bat script to just do an "echo" command but still doesn't work (RWB PI says it does).
It seems to me that executing scripts from remote shares is a no go? Does anyone have a previous experience dealing with these cases?
Thanks,
Romeu

Hi all.
After taking some hints from this thread, we have found out that the problem lied some where in the installation part of PI.
We've set up a basic script, local and not remote, and still the system would not execute that command.
The RWB logs showed successful processing but the Application Server logs were full of errors and stack traces regarding the execution of any command. A support note was raised with SAP support in order to trace these errors.
I'm therefore closing this question as the original question is not related with remote scripting.
Thanks all for your help.
Best regards,
Romeu

How to Use synchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses

there is a Setting for the usage of RFC accesses from a tested system
using eCATT.
'X' - Use asynchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses
' ' - Use synchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses
I developed an eCATT as following :
SAPGUI ( SAPGUI_1 , Target_system_1 ).
SAPGUI ( SAPGUI_2 , Target_system_2 ).
My question is how to run the eCATT in a synchronous RFC calls
PS: I do not want to change the Target_system to the same one in the
above script of ecatt.Because I need to run it in 2 different Target
systems sometime.
for example, I give a Target_system_3 when run this eCATT
I want the SAPGUI_1 and SAPGUI_2 run the Target_system_3 but not the
Target_system_1 or Target_system_2 .
Could you please tell me how to make it without the changes in script?

This is the standard option value. Asynchronous are not the standard way and used only for very special purposes.

The commands will be executed in sequence. So each call will be synchronously replayed against TS1 and TS2.
What is you issue with this standard procedure?

Java Web Start and Remote Scripting Incompatibility?

I recently installed the Java Web Start plugin to Internet Explorer, in order to run Sun's version of the Java Virtual Machine.
After the install, I am receiving errors when trying to run a web application that uses the Remote Scripting technology for client-server communication.
I think this might be related to the Java 2 security model, which requires all Java applets to be signed. The Remote Scripting client-side component seems to be unsigned, so that may be causing my problem.
Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I had the same problem on a unix server!
The new build of IE on Windows 2003 from Microsoft that excludes the JVM (Java Virtual Machine), works fine with the JVM coming from Sun, except for the following.
We are experiencing problems, that if we are not logged in as Domain administrator, we get an Apache security prompt to log on, as soon as the RSProxy class is used. It seems that the Class is not picking up the current session, but tried to create another session, without a userid, and then prompts you for your login details.
We still cannot figure out, why it does not do it with the Domain Administrator account.
Can someone please have a look into this.
I think there is a simple configuration problem somewhere, that will allow seamless integration with Sun's JVM.
I could resolve it so far by loading the Microsoft JVM back into Win2k3 theough the Visual Studion 6 Cd's, but I don't like the idea of that!

JRE International Version Kills Windows Remote Scripting?

I've got a web app that uses the Microsoft remote scripting engine to run some ASP script on the server.
This application works fine and has always worked fine without any version of the JRE installed. If I install the JRE version 1.3 (English edition) this application still works fine. If I install the JRE 1.3 (international edition) the remote scripting no longer works.
Does anybody have any idea why installing the international JRE would hose my remote scripting?

I am also having a problem with this. Remote Scripting works fine with 1.3, but when 1.4 was installed I started having problems with it.
Did you ever figure this one out?
Thanks,
Nathan

Remote script execution.

Hello.
I would like to know how to run a script on a remote Linux machine. Can I do this without caring where the local JVM is running?
I haven't done this before, and have searched various places for a concise answer. I have not been successful. Will something like the following work: Runtime.exec("remote.machine\remote.script.sh");. I have also noticed that my searches seem to lead me to discussions of Java RMI, so in thinking RMI has something to say about what I'm doing, I have posted my question here.
Background: I have a java application (a web service in fact) that needs to get information from a back-end system to do its job. It needs to invoke a script that's running on a remote host where the coveted business system resides.
The Runtime.exec() method appears only to run processes on local machines. From the research I have done, the usual fudge here is to know the operating system of the local machine so you might be able to use its remote process execution facilities. However, I don't want to know anything about the local OS, because it could be different between development, testing, and production. I know that the remote OS is Linux.
Is there any way I can get a process to run on a remote machine without having to know about the local machine's OS?
Many thanks in reply,
Owen.

You need obviously the remote system to support this through some facility like remote shell (rsh) or secure shell (ssh). so it depends on how that remote Linux system is set up and what access (userid) you can get for it.
Are you granted some access to that remote Linux machine?
If yes, what kind of?

How to run the perl script from java ?

Hi , I need to run the pearl script from the server and to get the result of the script thro' java using SSH
Is there any 3rd party SSH API in java ?
Please help me out
thanks in advance

This seems like a very strange thing to want to do.
What is the perl script doing?
Do other programs (not some shell script) access this server-side perl script from a different machine?
If so how do they do it?
What currently triggers the perl script to execute?
What currently handles the output from the perl script?
If you can answer these questions (and understand the answers) you should be able to come up with a different approach to this.
You do not really want to call a remote perl script from a Java program, you want to achieve the effect you think that would have if you could do it.
So find the answers to the above questions, write them on 3" x 5" cards and lay them out on your desk.
What flow of control needs to happen? Which piece of code needs to produce or consume which piece of data?
If that fails, ask you self or who ever is making you do this what are the use-cases?
If you do not know what use-cases are or do not understand them well enough try reading
Use Case Modeling (The Addison-Wesley Object Technology Series) by Kurt Bittner and Ian Spence (Paperback - Aug 30, 2002)
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/002-7908514-4043267?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=use+cases&x=0&y=0
It is a short and easy to read book on the subject and also one of the best.
You MUST understand WHAT you are trying to achieve before you can decide HOW you are going to achieve it.

Getting return code from remote script after Unix rsh call

I hope one of you guys can help me with this issue. I think I've gotten the 'rsh' command to work from the CES application so that the sqr report generation can execute on a remote machine (instead of the app server machine). I'm actually doing this by having the app still execute the ces_sqr script, however, now the ces_sqr script will just have an 'rsh' command in it which will cause the actual real sqr processing to occur remotely.
I am executing a Unix script which does a remote shell call to another script on a remote machine. The remote script sends a return code when run locally, however, how can I get the calling rsh script to get that return code?
If I do the following in the rsh script:
rsh -l resdev morph "/dev/bin/remote_script"
rc=$?
echo "$rc\n"
then the return code that I get is not actually the return code from the remote_scrpit, but it is the return code from the rsh command that is 0 (success) because the rsh command actually executed successfully even though the remote_script could've returned something other than success. How can I get the return code from the remote_script passed back to the rsh calling script?

Portlets and Remote Scripting

My questions center around whether Portlets that adhere to the WSRP or JSR 168 specifications can also employ technologies like remote scripting without causing the Portal to rebuild the entire page. I've already had some discussion with the JSR-168 group and it seems that JSR-168 and Remote Scripting don't play well together. However, I haven't received a fully satisfactory response from the Sun folks and am hoping the Plumtree Portlet folks can shed some light on this issue.
I'm using the term "remote scripting" in the broadest possible sense to include technologies where a sub-section of a markup fragment (<span> or <div>) is dynamically updated via an asynchronous, background call to the server.
The point of "remote scripting" is to avoid reloading the entire Web page in order to provide a richer user experience than a typical Web page. This is the technology behind the "rich internet application" movement a la Macromedia, Laszlo Systems, etc. where single-page experience is the foundation.
I have two specific examples of Remote Scripting in mind:
a) JavaScript remote scripting (JSRS) is a JavaScript framework that uses a hidden IFRAME embedded into the Portlet markup fragment to make asynchronous calls to the server to dynamically update sections of the Portlet without reloading the entire Portlet. Briefly, JSRS works as follows: 1. JSRS uses a hidden IFRAME to make background calls to the Server 2. JSRS sets the URL for the IFRAME's src to invoke a Servlet; updating the SRC in JavaScript triggers a call to the Server. 3. The response written by the Servlet is just HTML that uses an onLoad JavaScript event handler to callback into the JSRS framework 4. The onLoad event is fired when the browser loads the new page for the hidden IFRAME, this triggers the JSRS callback mechanism that allows my Portlet to update a section (using a SPAN or DIV) on the Portlet in a dynamic, asynchronous manner. (see Brent Ashley's JSRS site: www.ashleyit.com/rs)
b) Flash Remoting. If my Portlet is a Flash Movie (the HTML fragment generated by the Portlet uses a Object/Embed tags to include an SWF), then the Flash Movie could use an XMLSocket object in ActionScript or the Flash Remoting API to talk to a Web service to dynamically update sub-sections of the Portlet, such as dynamically populating a ListBox in response to some user action.
I have three (3) questions:
1) From a cursory reading of the JSR-168 specification, it seems that all action-oriented URLs embedded in a Portlet must be Action URLs that have been re-written by the Portlet Container to force all traffic from Portlets back through the container. Is this a true statement?
In other words, is a Portlet allowed to make any server requests that do not use a re-written Action/Render URL? For example, POST to a Servlet running in another Web application in the same WebLogic instance? I understand there are single sign-on issues that need to be addressed, but assuming you configure the application server so that security credentials propagate from the Portlet to this other Servlet, can you do this?
2) Is there a way to update sub-sections of a Portlet without having the Portlet Container reload the entire page? In other words, does the JSR-168 specification have any provisions for using remote scripting inside a Portlet?
My sense is that the two techologies "standard portlets (JSR-168 or WSRP)" and "remote scripting" are incompatible at this time. This is a shame because it means that providing a rich Internet application experience in a portal will require developer's to abandon these specifications in favor or Portal Server specific approaches.
3) Lastly, does Plumtree have a solution to address this problem--i.e. if I build a Plumtree specific Portlet using your SDK, can I use remote scripting?

A few issues:
1. The idea of remote scripting runs counter to the idea of processAction. That is, processAction is blocking and expects other portlets on the same page to redraw after processAction is completed for the target portlet. Remote scripting means refreshing in place with no impact on other portlets. So it's difficult to see how remote scripting could be integrated into the specification.
See PLT.5.2.4:
If the client request is triggered by an action URL, the portal/portlet-container must first
trigger the action request by invoking the processAction method of the targeted
portlet. The portal/portlet-container must wait until the action request finishes. Then, the
portal/portlet-container must trigger the render request by invoking the render method
for all the portlets in the portal page with the possible exception of portlets for which
their content is being cached.The render requests may be executed sequentially or in
parallel without any guaranteed order.
2. Plumtree specifically does not use the servlet container for the values of getRemoteUser() and isUserInRole(). This is because:
(a) our users expect to get the authenticated Plumtree user.
(b) The ways that users can be authenticated in a servlet container is specific to that vendor and version. For example, Tomcat returns whether the user is authenticated as well as the roles when the user logs in. BEA sets the roles in a weblogic.xml file. In other words, there is no uniform api for all servlet container vendors at this time. As a result, many web application authors will use their own mechanism (e.g. authenticate against LDAP), rather than release multiple versions of their product for each app server and version.
3. To reference another servlet, make sure that the url to the servlet is in the gateway space, and then use the EDK to get the remote user name. This will return the same value as getRemoteUser in the jsr-168 portlet. If you just call getRemoteUser() on the servlet, it will return null, as we did not authenticate against the servlet application, we authenticated against the portal.
Hope this helps.

Creating a job that runs a Tcl script

Hi,
We currently have a scheduled job running a Tcl script on a 8.1.7 DB. My question is, can I still use the same setup in 10g DB (i.e. creating a job that runs Tcl script)? If I can, how am I gonna do it?
Thanks,
howie

It depends on how you scheduled the job in 8.1.7 DB.
By Cronjob? Yes you can do the same to connect to 10g
By DBMS_JOB?. Yes you can do it in 10g and in addition, can improve it with DBMS_SCHEDULER
Via OEM? Yes in can use Enterprise Manager to create a Job that runs the Script.

How can I run a SQL script file...

How can I run a SQL script file from a location on my computer without providing the whole path?
Is there some way I can set a "Working folder" in SQL Plus??
Thanks!
Tom

You can create an environment variable called "SQLPATH" which is a list of directories that SQL*Plus will search for your .SQL
scripts.
I would like to use another directory than the oracle/bin...
How can I do this ??
Hello,
U can do this by this way:
Save odm_script.sql file to the default Oracle
directory i.e. Oracle-Home/bin and Run following command
through SQL Plus.
SQL>@Script_Name
I hope this will resolve ur problem.
