Unix restart script for java progs

Ok this maybe isn't about java programming in itself but sort of related, and people here might know how to do it.
I have a java program (server) which i want to run on a unix machine. However, if the java program is shutdown or crashes, i want it to restart itself. I believe this is possible by starting the program through a unix script that will restart it again when it ends.
Can someone post an example script like this? (Im using a linux redhat server btw)
Best regards,

Check you man pages for 'init' or 'xinit'. Whenever a server is not
running, any request coming from a port will be delegated to the
designated server by (x)init. When a server is running, (x)init
won't do anything.
kind regards,
Jos

Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
Here is the condition which i want to implement.
1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
2. Increase size of redolog file.
3. Load sample schema.
4. dump the schema.
5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
6. Create backup using rman.
7. restore backup which you have backed up.

This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site. Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code. But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours. There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

Error while trying to execute a unix shell script from java program

Hi
I have written a program to execute a unix shell script in a remote machine. I am using J2ssh libraries to estabilish the session connection with the remote box.The program is successfully able to connect and authenticate with the box.
The runtime .exec() is been implemented to execute the shell script.I have given below the code snippet.
try {
     File file_location = new File("/usr/bin/");
     String file_location1 = "/opt/app/Hyperion/scripts/daily";
     String a_mib_name = "test.sh";
     String cmd[] = new String[] {"/usr/bin/bash", file_location1, a_mib_name};
     Runtime rtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
     Process p = rtime.exec(cmd, null, file_location);
System.out.println( "Connected to the server1" );
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line = br.readLine();
while(line !=null)
System.out.println(line);
line = br.readLine();
br.close();
p.getErrorStream ().close ();
p.getOutputStream().close();
int retVal = p.waitFor();
System.out.println("wait " + retVal);
//session.executeCommand("ls");
catch (IOException ex) {
I get an error message
Connected to the server
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/usr/bin/bash" (in directory "\usr\bin"

I am sure of the file path where the bash.sh and test.sh are located.
Am i missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Error while executing unix shell script from java program

Hi All,
I am trying to execute unix shell script from a java program using Runtime.execute() method by passing script name and additional arguments.
Code snippet :
Java Class :
try{
     String fileName ="test.ksh";
     String argValue ="satish"; // value passed to the script
     String exeParam = "/usr/bin/ksh "+fileName+" "+argValue;
     Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeParam);
     int exitValue = proc.waitFor();
     sop("Exit Value is : "+exitValue);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}Test.ksh
export -- application realated paths..
nohup abc.exe 1> test.log 2>&1;
$1
exit.By running the above java class , i am getting exit Value: 139 and log file test.log of 0 bytes.
when i am running the same command (/usr/bin/ksh test.ksh satish) manually, it's calling abc.exe file successfully
and able generate the logs properly.
Pls let us know where exactly i am stuck..
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Satish

Hi Sabre,
As per the guidelines provided by the article, i had done below changes..
InputStream is = null;
InputStreamReader iStreamReader = null;
BufferedReader bReader = null;
String line = null;
try{
String fileName ="test.ksh";
String argValue ="satish"; // value passed to the script
String exeParam = "/usr/bin/ksh "+fileName+" "+argValue;
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeParam);
is = proc.getErrorStream();
iStreamReader = new InputStreamReader(is);
bReader = new BufferedReader(iStreamReader);
System.out.println("<ERROR>");
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println("Error is : "+line);
System.out.println("</ERROR>");
int exitValue = proc.waitFor();
sop("Exit Value is : "+exitValue);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
Now , it's showing something like..
<ERROR>
</ERROR>

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?

How to run unix shell script from java web applet

hi all
i have created one java applet. my apache web server is on unix server.
i have created one shell script in same directory where my .class and .htm files reside...
how to run this shell script from applet? it should search this .sh file on server and not on the client browser machine...
thanks in advance

I suppose you could make the shell script into a CGI, configure the server to execute CGIs, and then make the applet open the URL of that CGI.

Is it Possible to Run SQL Script from Java prog

Hello
Is there any API by which we can run SQl Script file ,
Just by giving database configration parameters and SQL Script file Path ,it will execute that script automatically

You can excute SQL statemetns throught JDBC, but that doesn't have a facility to read those statements from a file. You'd have to write code to read the file and create and execute statements through JDBC. That should be pretty straightforward though.
It's conceivable that there's a third party library out there that does it, if you know what to look for.
If you're not familiar with JDBC, check out http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JDBC20Intro/

Unix shell script to java

I have some code for executing unix command like.
String execString = "date";
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec (execString);
And it displays the date.
but
If i want to execute the below command, then it gets "No such file or directory".
String execString = "date>showdate.log";
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec (execString);
Would you please help me what it was wrong?

Hi
This works for me.
String[] command = {"sh", "-c", "yourStringHere"};
            ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(command);
            Process p = pb.start();
            // Wait for process to finish
            p.waitFor();However, some friendly advice I've garnered from this forum is that you should handle the input and output streams of the process.

Passing Null Characters from Unix Shell Script to Java Program

Hi Experts,
Facing an issue with a shell script....
The shell script has 10 input parameters....
1st Parameter is a compiled Java program name(This can keep changing)
Rest 9 are the parameters of the Java Program...
The following piece of code is working when Test "a z" "b t" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" is hardcoded.
lv_java_string=`java Test "a z" "b t" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""`
The whole thing being dynamic.....
But when I dynamically populate the same on to a parameter lv_java_param and then execute the same
lv_java_string=`java $lv_java_param`
if i echo $lv_java_param its giving me Test "a z" "b t" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" correctly
Im facing some issue...... The issue is " is being treated as a parameter itself and the space between a and z is not taken into consideration and hence z is taken as the 2nd parameter
Issue seems to be something like the precedence in which the above statement is executed, because of which "s are calculated/manipulated. Is it something like
a) $lv_java_param is computed first and then java $lv_java_param
b) or java $lv_java_param is run on the fly......
Any help is much appreciated.

Java exec() of UNIX shell script

I have a java application that uses:
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( cmdLine);
to execute a UNIX shell script, for example:
#!/bin/ksh
. /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/wsEnv
export PATH=/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:$PATH
cd /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/usr/src/pkgdefs/SFWnmap
/usr/ccs/bin/make -e ROOT=$ROOT install
RESULT=$?
if [ $RESULT = 0 ]
then
echo "Package source"
cd /export/pc112477/freeware/work1/usr/src/pkgdefs/SFWnmapS
/usr/ccs/bin/make -e ROOT=$ROOT install
RESULT=$?
fi
exit $RESULT
Some times the running of the script locks up depending on how much work the script has to, eg. if the make calls pkgmk for a small package it runs okay but if its a large package it locks up in pkgmk.
The script itself works okay if run directly
Does anyone have any ideas on why this locks up and how I could stop it doing it.
Thanks

For anyone who stumbles across this and needs an answer:
To empty the standard error and output, you need to use getErrorStream() and getInputStream() on the Process object created when you execed your command. Create new InputStreamReaders with the streams from the process, then wrap those with BufferedReaders and read each line with a while loop. This is the basic thing you need to do:
try{
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(proc.getErrorStream());
BufferedReader errReader = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line;
while((line = errReader.readLine()) != null)
<do something with each line of error>
} //end try
catch(<errors>) {
<do something with errors>
} //end catch
What you really should do is put the stream handling in a separate class that extends Thread, create an instance for the error and output streams, and start each one. There is a class called StreamGobbler that does this sort of thing. Look at http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html to find out more about it and read a detailed explanation of different problems with exec().
