RE: Running shell script from a Struts app using jt400 toolbox

Raj,

I don't think you can't switch to a qshell environment, as you are trying to do. As soon as your first qsh command has been completed, you get back to the same CL mode. That means that you have to do everything in one line. So your method call should look something like:

cmd.run ("QSH CMD('/qibm/WasJythonScripts/InstallScript.sh arg1 arg2 arg3')")

Good luck,

Luis

Subject: Running shell script from a Struts app using jt400 toolbox


I need to run a shell script on system-i from my Action class. I tried
using CommandCall to run QSH and then run my shell script file. However,
this doesn't work. After calling QSH, the CommandCall comes back to host
environment.

Here is what I want to do:
cmd.run("QSH")
cmd.run(" cd /qibm/WasJythonScripts")
cmd.run ("./InstallScript.sh arg1 arg2 arg3");

Can this be done using CommandCall or are there some other classes in
jt400 I should leverage to accomplish my tasks? Any pointers are
appreciated. Thanks.
