You can use system call to execute jar file.
# Change to the directory where jar resides
Dir.chdir("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/<dirname>/") do
# Execute jar
retResult = system("<path to java> -jar <jarname> <args 1> <args
2> .. <args n> ")
if retResult
Jar executes succesfully
else
error in executing jar file.
end #chdir
Thanks
