Thanks for that...

I went over that document and a few others on Google...the batch file is
still not working out.

Instead of a batch file if I try and execute a perl script (.PL) located on
the host from a remote computer ...

Process pr= rt.exec("c:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Tomcat
5.5\\webapps\\sheet\\batch\\db.PL");

I get an error=193 error. Based on research, that error means that it cannot
find the program with which to open the file. I have set the environment
variables PATH to the perl bin, as well as added .PL in PATHTEXT.

Any ideas what else I would need?

Thanks,

Akshay

  Hi,

  This is not entirely a struts question, but how would I execute a batch
from
  on the server from a jsp?

  If the .bat is in the same file as the jsp calling it.


  I tried

      Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();

      Process pr= rt.exec("db.bat");

  But it gives errors.

  java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: db.bat error=2
  java.lang.ProcessImpl.create(Native Method)
  java.lang.ProcessImpl.<init>(ProcessImpl.java:81)
  java.lang.ProcessImpl.start(ProcessImpl.java:30)
