Hey everybody,
Thanks for all of the replies. I was actually testing this code on the actual production web server (which I shouldn't have been doing in the first place) and when I found out that I was unable to execute any programs while logged on as myself I assumed it was a shortcoming of running Tomcat as a service. However if I run the same JSP page using a browser on another computer, it works fine. Rodrigo and Jacob were right in that checking the "Allow service to interact with desktop" this JSP page will properly execute any programs or shell commands while I am logged onto the web server computer as a user thereby allowing me to test that my code is functioning correctly. Newbie mistake. Anyways, thanks to everyone who replied. --- Rodrigo Ruiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > At least, doing so you should be able to test you > are doing things well.
