ls -l > foo.dat was just an example
My task is to envoke a perl script from jsp which looks like this:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"/bin/sh","-c","echo
[EMAIL PROTECTED] | /root/bin/bulkmakemail"});
For some reason I'm not able to run ANY unix commands from jsp
Can it be because of "user privileges" , do I have to run tomcat as root?
I know it is dangerous
Or is there any other way I can fix this problem?
Thank you
roman
