Using java from command prompt

Hi, I have used command prompts for a long time, though not recently. But this has never happenned to me, and I may have been using a different OS the last time I really used a command prompt. I am currently running Windows XP.
Anyways, when I try to simply change a directory, you know cd "filename", it tells me:
Parameter format not correct - "filename"
Basically, it won't accept any strings as a parameter. I'm really surprised at this. Is this normal? In any case, I got around this by using the short names for files. For example, I used the name docume~1 instead of "documents and settings".
Then, when I got to the folder where my java files were stored, it told me it was an invalid directory but nonetheless allowed me to use it. However, no commands worked except for cd..
Java did not work, nor did basic commands like dir or help. Do you have any idea what is wrong with my command prompt? I know this is not specifically a question about Java, but I can't use Java without this.
thanks.

I got around this by using the short names for files. For example, I
used the name docume~1 instead of "documents and settings".So it is accepting some strings.
Check that you are using cmd.exe not command.com. Ie, from
Start->Run... typecmdAnd not command.
Try the javac command and if the computer says'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.then will have to set your OS path (not CLASSPATH - do not set
CLASSPATH at any time or the command prompt will likely never work
again).
Instructions for setting the OS path are [urlhttp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/install-windows.html]here. Scroll down to
point number 5

Running java from command prompt?

What do I need to be able to run java code from the command prompt? I have J Builder and when I have questions, mainly people give want me to run from command line. When I do so it says it does not know what javac is.

javac, java etc.. commands are in the j2sdk\bin directory.
So you have to give PATH to that bin directory in order to use it in command line. Go to the JBuilder installation folder and look for the j2sdk. (JBuilder comes with the j2sdk but the name may vary)
If you find it, then give the PATH to it's bin directory.
Or you can download the j2sdk from sun seperately, and give the PATH to its bin directory.

Error while running a ODI scenario from command prompt

I'm trying to run a ODI scenario from command prompt. I've edited the tnsnames.ora and odiparam.bat file with exact host and port details. Even though I'm facing the below error.

Hi,
Are you able to start the Standalone Agent(KANBAN) and test it in the Topology?
Check the value of the ODI_MASTER_URL variable in odiparams file(at the path <ODI_HOME>\oracledi\agent\bin) of the agent.
Specify the full the JDBC URL properly not like localhost(until the DB is on same machine as your ODI).

Test Execution hangs while executing a test from Command prompt option

I have done the following
1) Created a script Test driver
2) Added different scripts as Script->Properties->Assets to the driver script
3) Call each of this asset script from TestDriver using command getScript("<<ScrptName>>".run(1, true, true, true);
4) Now calling this TestDriver script from command prompt with command
e:\\OracleATS\\agent
runScript.bat E:\\INTEGRATION_SERVICES\\Identity_management\\Automation\\Scripts\\MasterScripts\\TestDriver
TestDriver.jwg
The script execution hangs at "Initializing VU 1 for Script TestDriver. After few mintues of seeing this message i get error "Execution Timed Out".
Do I need to keep openscript UI open for script execution from command line ?
Is there any way to increase this Execution Time out ? May be it is taking time to load the internal script assets. AS other scripts are running fine on the same machine from command prompt itself.
Complete error is as follows

Hi e_raja_sekar,
You wrote:
public static void main(String args){should be
public static void main(String args[]){Granted, the below code was tested on Windows XP using J2SE SDK 1.4.1_02 (and not 1.2.2 like Sridhar is using), but when I compiled and executed this code:
public class BadMain {
public static void main(String args) {
System.out.println("Hello World");
}The output I got was:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: mainSo I don't think this is Sridhar's problem (but I could be wrong) since he says that he gets no error message.
Cheers,
Avi.

How to Get Input from Command Prompt?

How can i get input from command prompt like
C:\
or linux ?
(Here's what I use now)
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String line;
Whlie((line=in.readLine())!= null)
{ System.out.prinln( line) ; }
IS THERE A BETTER WAY?

The main method within a java class accepts command line input through a String array.
In this example args is the String array. You can access the parameters as args[0] for the first parameter, args[1] for the second parameter, etc....
The usage for the example below would be :
c:\EDIFormat file1 file2
Where args[0] would equal file1 and args[1] would equal file2.
public class EDIFormat {
public static void main(String[] args) {
          if (args.length < 0) {
               System.out.println("No Parameters supplied. Exiting....");
               // open input and output files
               EDIFiles(args[0], args[1]);
Hope that helps!

Looking at your error message a little closer, I don't believe it has anything to do with port conflicts but rather that even though you are executing the startManagedWeblogic.cmd with your managed server name (MS1), the error indicates that it is trying to start the Admin Server (not MS1). Note in your error message the following: Unable to obtain lock on C:\bea\user_pr
ojects\domains\PB530Domain\servers\AdminServer\tmp\AdminServer.lok. Server may a
lready be running
It is saying that it cannot start the Admin Server because it is already running (which is probably true in your case). Have you made any changes to the startManagedWeblogic.cmd or the startWeblogic.cmd scripts? I would start debugging there and try to figure out why the script is trying to start your admin server instead of MS1 as you requested on the cmd line.

Running my application from command prompt

Hi im a student and kind of a rookie. My program runs fine from eclipse but when i run from command prompt it gives:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.MoClassDefFoundError: Mainclass
This is what i am typing: java Mainclass. And i am sure i am in the right folder. I know it gives the same problem when you are not in the right folder. ALso my program uses jre5.0 and it runs fine on eclipse.
Any help greatly appreciated

From the directory containing Mainclass.class try java -cp . Mainclass The effect of "dash cee pea space dot space" is to
set the classpath to the current directory.

Cant See RTF Files in JAR but can when running program from command prompt

posted August 16, 2005 08:26 AM
Hi ALL:
I have a Java Swing APP. It has Menus which displays information through File I/O in a JEditorPane.
When I run my program from Command Prompt using "java myApp" it shows these RTF Files as it is.
However when I run them after converting Directory into a Executable JAR FILE, it fails. I get a blank JEditorPane. My RTF files are in the CORRECT PATH, just dont get displayed. Rest of the APP works fine.

Unable to run discoverer report from command prompt

Hi,
I'm trying to run the discoverer report from command prompt and i need to schedule the same.
How could i pass multiple values for the parameters?
If i don't pass the optional parameters, the parameter screen is getting pop-up? How to skip optional parameters?
Also, how to pass the data ranges (format for date parameters) ?
I'm using the below command in command prompt:
cd/d E:\oracle\BIToolsHome_1\bin
dis51usr /connect username/password@database /opendb "TIMS-PCJ status Report" /sheet "TIMS observation status report (based on performed date)" /parameter "Test Number" 40351 /parameter "From Date" "01-JAN-2007" /parameter "To Date" "28-FEB-2007" /parameter "Observation Status" C /parameter "Observation Name" "Abdominal Girth" /export HTML "C:\DISCOVERER_REPORT_SCHEDULING\DIS_OUTPUT\PCJStatusOutput11"
Any one please reply me. Its very urgent.
Regards,
Sreedhar

Hi,
How could i pass multiple values for the parameters? You should be able to use a comma separated list e.g.
/parameter "Observation Name" "'Abdominal Girth','Abdominal Girth2'"
How to skip optional parameters?I don't think you can. You have to supply all parameters and then decode out the parameters you don't need in the workbook.
how to pass the data ranges You cannot pass a date range. You can pass a start and end parameters. The default format for the date parameters is DD-MON-YYYY but this can change depending on the NLS settings and format of the data item.

Call an ABAP program or a function module from command prompt/python script

Dear All,
I want to call a function module/ABAP program from command prompt or a python script.
Let me explain with an example.
There is a function module "z_add" that takes two integers as input parameters and generates their sum.
the sum is the output parameter.
Now i want to call this function module from command prompt / python script and pass parameters to this function module.
In return i must get the sum(i.e. the output of function module).
I tried using STARTRFC ,was able to call the FM but could not get the return value(output) from FM.
Can you please provide me the code of such a function module and the method to call it thereby passing parameters and getting the sum.
Thanks and regards,
Gaurav

Connecting to oracle10g from command prompt

Hello All,
Please reply to following doubts/queries. Any help is highly appreciated.
1.Without having any other tool, is it possible to connect to a remote oracle10g server from windows command prompt.
I have used following command in MySQL database for this purpose:
"mysql -u database_user_name -ppassword".
2. My second question is about Oracle SQL developer(version 1.5.4). I am having this tool installed on my machine.
So, how can i now connect to remote Oracle 10g server from command prompt.
My purpose is to run batch file thereby calling a stored procedure.
Thanks.

Hi,
1.Without having any other tool, is it possible to connect to a remote oracle10g server from windows command prompt.
I have used following command in MySQL database for this purpose:
"mysql -u database_user_name -ppassword".AFAIk, we can't correct in such ways. I might be wrong too, since I have not tested with mysql anytime.
2. My second question is about Oracle SQL developer(version 1.5.4). I am having this tool installed on my machine.
So, how can i now connect to remote Oracle 10g server from command prompt.
My purpose is to run batch file thereby calling a stored procedure.You need to configure the appropriate connections identified - user/ password - wher DB host is residing IP address and port number and sid of oracle instance. Carry out those things then you can connect to DB.
Execute the batch files from DB Server - its better approach.

To test proxyservice from command prompt

Hi,
I need to know the complete steps that I need to follow to test my proxy service from command prompt. Its urgent so please help.

rahul.

You should be more specific as it's hard to guess what you really want to achieve.
If you want to perform functional test from command line, then you can perhaps try command line features of SoapUI:

First, create a common project using SoapUI GUI and than you can execute it from command line.
