I wasn't aware that Tomcat had any functionality related to running external programs. I can tell you that I have successfully called external programs (our own win32 commandline exes) from Tomcat and JBoss/Tomcat (using Runtime.getRuntime().exec() as you do).
I think that, unfortunatly, it's down to your code or environment. I'd start simple - a command line program that writes something to a file - and build up to your goal from there.
