Running Bash scripts from jsf

Hey I was just wondering if anyone knows how to run a bash script (whatever.sh) from a jsf page.?? I have a whatever.sh on a tomcat server where my web ap is and I was trying just to run it? Any idea???

Why do you want to do this operation in a JSF page?
It is better to do it in a Java class and then call the class from the JSF/ JSP page - keep JSF/ JSP only for disply / view purposes.
Searc on Google for "How to call unix shell script using Java" for answers.

IDCS5-win. Error while running a script from indesign(not via estk)

Hi all,
After running the script from indesign, I get following error
ASSERT '(engine->getDebugFlags() & ScScript::kExtendedErrors) == ScScript::kExtendedErrors' in ..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptRunner.cpp at line 412 failed.
..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptRunner.cpp (412)
any idea about this?
The script runs fine when run from ES tool kit.
Thanks

Hi,
My colleague found the problem. We were using extendables library and we still haven't figured out what was actually happening, but removing it solved the problem.

How to run a script from Oracle Form (Beside using HOST command)

I would like to run a script from Forms 6.0. I know that we can actually issue this command :
host('plus80.exe' username/password@connect_string @c:\scriptname);
BUT, is there any other alternative ?

Sqlplus is a different program, so one way or the other you have to leave Forms to run sqlplus. What is you objection against HOST?
You can also run sqlplus from the database, but again you need a stored java procedure to call sqlplus (sort of HOST command that runs in the database).
Francois' solution works if your script just has a query to run, but if you have specific sqlplus commands (spool etc.) forms_ddl is probably not a solution.

Running SQLPLUS script from command prompt on SUN

We are making a migration from VMS to SUN ( SunOS 5.10) and from 9i to 10g. We have encountered an unanticipated problem with running scripts from the command line in SUN(SQLPLUS execution from the command line). All of our packages have a naming convention such as "DM$LOAD.PKB". I know it is a strange naming convention.
The problem is that when the package creation script is run in SQLPLUS at the command prompt SQLPLUS can not open the file.
SQL> @dm$load.pb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pb"
SQL> host ls
dm$load.pkb
SQL>
Setting the escape character does not seem to help.
SQL> set escape '\'
SQL>
SQL> @dm\$load.pb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pb"
SQL>
Unfortunately, we can not rename the scripts. This can be done from a shell script, but our Tech Services refuse to run the SQL scripts from a shell script
Any ideas on how to get SQLPLUS to run the scripts from the SUN command line?

I did not notice that the cut and paste was poor. It should have read
SQL> @dm$load.pkb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pkb"
SQL> host ls
dm$load.pkb
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Running sql scripts from different directory

Hi
I have sql scripts in different directories as follows:
D:\myapp\sql
- load.sql
- init.sql
D:\myapp\sql\schema
-users.sql
-structure.sql
D:\myapp\sql\populate\
- data1.sql
- data2/sql
load.sql call all the other scripts as below:
@init.sql
@schema\users.sql
@schema\structure.sql
@populate\data1.sql
@populate\data2.sql
All my scripts run correctly when I run load.sql from D:\myapp\sql on comand prompt.
I need a way to run this script from a different directory say D:\ or C:\
I am writing a installer which will execute from a different directory.
Right now I get a file not found error for scripts within schema an populate folder.
Please let me know how can I make this work from a different directory.
Thanks

Hi peter. i think you cannot run files spread across different locations.
--the method which u specified always looks to the defined path

Valid sesion for run jython script from a plan

If I run a cr_clij script i have to do
app.execStr('udb.login -u user -p password') once and do not produce the login information anymore.
It is possible to do the same with the sessionID, if I run the script from a plan on the BUI? Or do I have to add the '-s sessionID' option to all clui commands?
Thanks

Hi TemPart:
string cmdArg = “C:\\Scripts\\test.ps1″;
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline();
pipeline.Commands.AddScript(cmdArg);
Collection [PSObject] results = pipeline.Invoke(); // please Update [] bracket with less then and greater then bracket
runspace.Close();
Had to modify this slightly:
string cmdArg = “Powershell.exe -file C:\\Scripts\\test.ps1″;
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline();
pipeline.Commands.AddScript(cmdArg);
Collection [PSObject] results = pipeline.Invoke(); // please Update [] bracket with less then and greater then bracket
runspace.Close();
If this is helpful please mark it so. Also if this solved your problem mark as answer.

Run a script from a script

Can anyone help me run a script from a script to kill an event listener?
There is an event listener on save. The same script may be run multiple times before changing workflows (which require different sets of scripts).
The eventual goal is to have a time stamp in a specific text frame that will already have content. The new stamp will overwrite the old, and only happen before close. Right now it's set for "on save" because I can't figure out an if else statement for "before close". I don't want to have to end the session to be able to work different job types. I need to be able to kill the event listener when exiting documents that create one.
I'm throwing crap at the wall, hoping it will stick. I'm sure there's a better way to handle it. Anyone have ideas.

Thanks

Here's the kind of thing I use:
function runShortRanges() {
    var shortRangesScript = File(getScriptPath().parent.parent + "/IndexExtras/ShortRanges.jsx");
    if (shortRangesScript.exists) {
      app.doScript(shortRangesScript);
In this case, I want to run a particular script in a known location, only if it exists. It's a way of adding optional functionality to a script.

When I run my script from a shortcut ExtendScript is invoked, but it is not when I run it the menu

I am using Photshop CS2 on Win XP
I have configured a keyboard shortcut (Crtl+Alt+P) to run a .jsx file from the ...\Presets\Scripts\ folder.
When I activate the script via the Keyboard Shortcut ExtendScript is invoked, and breaks execution on the main() statement (see below).
When I activate the script via the File/Scripts menu ExtendScript is not invoked and the script runs to completion.
The .jsx file is a wrapper for a .vbs script which does the 'real' work.
The .jsx is:-
function main()
var VBSscript=File("C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS2/Presets/Scripts/GGN_PS_Code_v1_2.vbs");
if(VBSscript.exists) VBSscript.execute();
main();
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to disable the invokation of ExtendScript when I run the script from the skortcut?

Thanks Paul.
I am out of the office at the moment, but your answer rings true. Certainly the .jsx extension is associated with ExtendScript. I'll delete the association and try again when I am back in the office.
Many thanks

Running ISA Scripts from SSL enabled IOP server?

Running Oracle Scripts from Command Line

Hi,
How can i run Oracle scripts from command line.
Actually i need to run these scripts from MSBuild before running Unit test projects

C:\>sqlplus @myscript
That would be the easiest variation
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript
would be an often used variation
And then there is of course the version with parameter passing:
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript param1 ... paramx
Dunno about MSBuild

Running sqlplus scripts from Java code?

hi
I need to programmatically run sqlplus scripts from Java code on a machine that doesn't have sqlplus installed.
Is there any Java class library available for doing this?

The Ant approach could probably work for me, thanks for the tip.
The setup seems rather complex however, given the simplicity of the task. I would prefer just running a Java based SQL*Plus from in a separate process or doing this via an API that would allow me to run SQL*Plus scripts (parse script, substitute variables, run statements).
Oracle SQL Developer v1.1 appears to include an API that does exactly this.
The ScriptParser, Substitution and SQLPLUS classes in the oracle.dbtools.raptor.scriptrunner package (oracle.sqldeveloper.jar) seem to do just what I need based on my tests.
Can I use these classes for this purpose in my application? Is repackaging allowed?
Does Oracle have any plans for releasing this sort of functionality separately e.g. as part of the Instant Client?

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.

HOW DO I RUN A UNIX BASH SCRIPT FROM JAVA??

HI. Here's a tricky little problem i have. There's a unix bash script that has some commands in it, that manipulate a file. It appends a certain string variable to a file called users. The users file is an ordinary text file.
I know this script to work perfectly, when i invoke it like this directyl from the command line: ./addusers.sh
or even: bash /downloads/selinux/policy/addusers.sh
Now, i have a java program, and its meant to just execute that script. It doesnt throw any Exceptions at runtime. But when i look at the users file, and expect it to have an extra line that was the string variable, the file is UNTOUCHED!
Again, direct command line invocation works, but not from java. Here's what my invocation from java looks like:
Process p = Runtime.getRunTime().exec("bash downloads/selinux/policy/addusers.sh");
The strange thing is, i tried a different bash command. I tried:
Process p = Runtime.getRunTime().exec("mkdir /temporary");
and this worked!
so why not the other one??
I cant figure it out.

You say:
bash /downloads/selinux/policy/addusers.sh
And you say in Java:
Process p = Runtime.getRunTime().exec("bash
downloads/selinux/policy/addusers.sh");
As if a leading / would be missing from the Java
version...nyix says:>
...OK sorry about that. i DO have a / in front of the downloads.... section in the java method. So its:
Process p = Runtime.getRunTime().
exec("bash /downloads/selinux/policy/addusers.sh");
HELP please?

Run bash script other than from terminal?

Hi,
I have a small 2 line script that runs an application...I want to create an icon to double-click to run the 2 lines and start the app, so I don't have to open Terminal and type the 2 lines.
I've used Automator to create an app to do this, but in the task bar I see "run shell script" and the rotating wheel-thingy the whole time the app is open.
Is there any way to create a script/app to do this without having "run shell script" and the rotating wheel-thingy going on?
Cheers,
Nige

Hmm, why does the word "Platypus" keep running through my head?
Bob, I'm trying to do the same thing (create a .app to launch a unix application) and I also ran into the aesthetic issue of the spinning gear in the menu bar for the entire time the app was running. Since the unix app I'm running is a Usenet news reader, that spinning gear would be a long-term distraction. I'll check out Platypus, but I and probably the others in this thread are trying to learn how to do this stuff ourselves to further our OS X knowledge, not merely to solve this one problem.
So with that being said, does anyone know if there's a way to create an Automator "Run Shell Script" action with that spinning gear in the menu bar suppressed? You know, besides using Platypus.

Running Shell scripts from the desktop

Hi,
I'm from the UNIX world rather than the mac one so have written a number of shell scripts. Lets call them foo.sh and bar.bash for the sake of argument.
These are sitting in a folder on my desktop
I can happily open a terminal session and run the scripts - and they work as I expect them to.
If I open a Finder window and double click on the icons for the scripts what happens is that it opens TextEdit.
Theres two things I'd like to change
A. I'd like to change the behaviour so that the scripts run when I double clike them rather than opening an editor (possibly in a terminal window )
B. I'd like to be able to change the editor from TextEdit to one I'm more used to...(I've installed Vim/Gvim which I quite like).
A. - Haven't managed to get anywhere trying to solve this....
B. - So far my attempts have got as far as...
1...
right-click -> open with -> Other -> select vim.app
tick Always open as
click open
The file then opens in a vim window.
however if I now close the vim application and double clike the file icon then the file opens in TextEdit again
2...
Right Click -> Get Info -> Open with VIM -> add -> Change all
message appears
'Are you sure you want to change all your Vimm.app documents to open with the application "vim.app"
This change will apply to all Vim.app documents with extension ".sh" '
click continue
In the Info pane the 'Open with' selection widget immediately changes to say 'Open with: TextEdit.app'
So I'm a bit stumped, can you help!
Regards
Mark
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Thanks to both people who answered.
You both gave me useful workarounds to my problem.
Renaming the scripts to be 'foo.command' was very hepful and useful to know. I tried this and it does indeed work. I may use this in the future.
I also had a play around with applescript and the automator to achieve similar results.
I agree that double clicking to run the file and also edit it is mutually exlcusive - I'm sort of trying to work out how I could make it do 'either/or' as I choose. In the Windows world i'd have the option of setting 'open' to run the script (assuming I'd got cygwin installed and had assiciated it) OR 'Edit with vim' if I wanted to edit the file (assuming vim was installed!).
Unresolved issue is that I'm still unable to get VIM to be associated with a .sh file.
The way I would envisage it working in Mac world would be to be able to right click on foo.sh -> Open with... and have a list to select from immediately there like..
Text Edit
Vim
Terminal (default)
and be able to somehow add and remove apps from the list and change which is the default.
My issue is that I don't seem to know how to get other apps than TextEdit to appear in the list - I suspect I need a better understanding of how these file/application associations work and are configured.

Mark
