Send a shell script via eppc

I want to tell a remote Mac to do a Terminal command through eppc:
<pre class=COMMAND>
tell application "Terminal" of machine ¬
"eppc://[email protected]" ¬
to do script "/usr/bin/enable DESKJET_640C"
</pre>
This of course always launches Terminal. How would I run the shell script through eppc without even launching Terminal?
For details, see this page

You can also run commands on the remote machine using ssh, which might be more secure:
ssh [email protected] "/usr/bin/enable DESKJET_640C"
(I didn't try it with the printer command, by the way, but I was able to do these without difficulty:
<pre class="command">ssh [email protected] "/usr/bin/lpstat -d -p"</pre>
and
<pre class="command">ssh [email protected] "cd ~/Documents; ls -l;"</pre>

How to call a shell script via ODI

Hi,
I need suggestion on following issues:
1) How to call a shell script via ODI?.. I tried using OSCommand utility .inspite of the execution being successful the data is not written into the new file in the desired format. After processing new file is created in the mentioned location but its empty.
2) I'm calling a procedure in ODI to load data into my fact. But once the fact gets loaded i want to update the log details (num of rows processed,num of rows inserted,num of rows rejected etc) in my log table. I'm planning to use a proc for updating but need to know from where can i find these details. Is there a table in work rep which gives me these info like how we get if we execute an interface.?
Please help me out.. Its urgent
Regards
Surabhi

Hello,
Question 1 appears a little vague, please elaborate. If you're looking to capture a return value from the command execution, you will need to pipe the return value to a file, then read from there.
The execution information is stored in the SNP_STEP_LOG table in the Work Repository. You will need to do a series of joins to retrieve the exact table that was updated. Good luck with this...

How do I run a shell script via AppleScript?

Seems obvious, "do shell script" but that doesn't work for me.
I have an Automator app which runs a shell script, I'd like to take that into an AppleScript. My AS doesn't run the shell script. Perhaps "do shell script' is expecting the script to be located elsewhere? The rest of my AS runs fine, but the shell script doesn't.
repeat with i from 1 to count of items in exportFolder
do shell script
          "exiftool -overwrite_original -Photoshop:CopyrightFlag='True'"
done
end repeat
As I say this works within an Automator app, what changes do I need to make it work in AppleScript?
Thanks!

What is 'exportFolder'? Where is it defined?
Thanks, 'exportFolder' is defined earlier in the script. The purpose of the script - which is run from within Aperture - is to rename the selected images, export them (to the 'exportFolder'), reset the version name and, using ExifTool, add metadata which Aperture does not write to exported JPEGs.
I have a version of this which works in Automator but I couldn't see any clues there on setting the path to ExifTool.
Here's the full (modified) script. Currently it returns an error
Result:
error "No file specified" number 1
so I now need to understand if I can use 'exportFolder' (defined at the start) to tell Finder which folder to use.

[Solved] Control pulseaudio with shell script via pacmd

Hi,
i wrote a shell script that switches between the internal sound card and an usb card as soon as i dock my laptop. The script is triggered by an acpi-event that's generated when the laptop is docked.
Everything works fine, if the script is run from the command line as the user that started pulseaudio. But if it's started by the acpi-event it can't connect to the pulseaudio server. it's run as:
su --login my_user -c "/usr/local/sbin/toggle-sink.sh"
where my_user is the user who started pulseaudio. i get the error:
No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
How can i fix this? Somebody has an idea?

PulseAudio uses some environment variables and X11 properties on the root window. You probably need a way to fake these.
Have you tried something like
export DISPLAY=":0"
In the script, so it knows on which display these values are stored?
You can also try running "pavucontrol" or "paman"(AUR) from the script, so it pops a window that is supposed to connect to PulseAudio. You might get a working pavucontrol window (which means pacmd and pactl should work), or a more detailled error message.
If this still doesn't work, you may also try running it in system-wide mode, so everybody has access to it including your script.

Passing mulitple parameters to unix shell script via File adapter

Hi,
I have the following usecase.
I have a set of files A, B, C, D etc in a directory dir. I also have a EOT ( end of transaction file).
I need to merge this file once the EOT file is present in XI application server ( using NFS with File adpter).
I have a script which can take the following paramters:
1. EOT file name
2. File names for A,B,C,D
3. Directory names.
Is it possible to send muliple parameters to the unix script from the File adapter?
please share any blogs which do so.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards
Abhishek

Hi,
You can always call script from file adapter using "OS command" functionality, pass additional parameter like you do in unix for existing script (exact command which you type on unix prompt).
Adapter will simply pass your OS command to operating system, so from XI point of view nothing is changed and it is your script which should take care of parameters.

Call a shell script from ActiveSync form?

Hi,
I need to call a shell script from an ActiveSync form . How can I do this.
I want to execute shell script at time of account create, update, delete.
Thanks

I would probably accomplish this by calling the shell script via java, and invoking the java code via xpress code in your ActiveSync form.

Launchd won't send email via shell script

I'm trying to send an email via shell script. e.g. my shell script is something like this:
#!/bin/sh
echo testing | mail -s 'this is a test' [email protected]
My launchdaemon runs the script: /usr/local/scripts/testscript.sh
I know the script is working, because I added some debugging (I added a line: echo is this working and sure enough, "is this working" is showing up in the console) but the email part kicks off an error message about 30 seconds later: Stray process with PGID equal to this dead job: PID ### PPID 1 sendmail
The script works when I run it with a cron job. But why wouldn't it work as a launchd item? And why is it I'm only having problems with the email segment of my scripts? I've tried other scripts and they all seem to work fine.

There are no errors reported. I'm looking in /var/log/mail.log.

Sending an email using shell script in Oracle Applications

Hi,
I have a pl/sql package which will call a shell script program.The shell script program is written in order to send the invoice hold details of AP as a mail.The parameters to this program are passed in the pl/sql package.
The shell script program has
5 parameters namely
to - email
from - email
hold id - which is a number
hold name - varchar2( free text)
hold reason - varchar2( free text)
the shell script looks as below.
FROM_EMAIL=`echo $1|cut -f9 -d " "|sed 's/\"//g'`
echo "From email id is $FROM_EMAIL" -- From email
TO_EMAIL=`echo $1|cut -f10 -d " "|sed 's/\"//g'`
echo "To Email id is $TO_EMAIL" -- to email
PARAM0=`echo $1 | awk '{print $11}'|sed -e "s/\"//g"`
echo "Param0: $PARAM0" -- hold id
PARAM1=`echo "$1" | cut -d" " -f12-| sed -e "s/\" \"/\"^\"/g" | awk -F'^' '{print $1}'|sed -e "s/\"//g"`
echo "Param1: $PARAM1" -- hold name
PARAM2=`echo "$1" | cut -d" " -f13-| sed -e "s/\" \"/\"^\"/g" | awk -F'^' '{print $1}'|sed -e "s/\"//g"`
echo "Param2: $PARAM2" -- hold reason
the values that am passinf to this program are if suppose
from email ---- [email protected]
to email [email protected]
12345 ------ hold id
test hold name ------ hold name
test hold reason ------- hold reason

Is there a question here?
In any case you could easily have done this inside the database using UTL_SMTP.

Do I run a shell script (bsh) via PL/SQL stored procedure?

Hello guys,
Do I run a shell script (bsh) via PL/SQL stored procedure?
For example:
procedure X is
(variables)
begin
-- Read file data
vFileHandle := utl_file.fopen('/mnt/novell/', 'file.txt','r');
exception
when 'INVALID READ FILE' then
(I've to try running script to mount a Novell partition.);
end;
I've to installed Oracle 9.0.1 on Suse Linux.
Please, any ideas or hints ...
Thx and regards.

You might be able to us the HOST command, I think you'd have to run it via dbms_sql, check this page for more details, not sure if it'll be of help but its worth a try..
