    Default How to invoke shell script from JSP page

    Hi Friends,
    I am a beginner to java/jsp. I have one shell script, that needs to be invoked from my jsp page. Here is the code in my page - testjava.jsp :

    Java Code: 
    <%@page language="java" %>

<%@page import="java.util.*" %>

<html>

<head>

<%
    String unixCommand = "sh test.ksh";

     Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();

     rt.exec(unixCommand);
    System.out.println("Print Test Line.");

%>

</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>
    and my test.ksh contains the below code :

    Java Code: 
    echo ' Done successfully ' > testfile.txt
    When i call this page from my website "http://132.17.34.101:7777/tools/testjava.jsp" it is showing blank and the shell script is not executed.
    Please help me out .

    Regards,
    Rajesh

    My expected out put is this:
    When i copy this link "http://132.17.34.101:7777/tools/testjava.jsp" in browser and hit enter then it should call my shell script and testfile.txt should be created on that directory (the directory where the jsp page is created in unix box).

    Also , pls let me know whats wrong in that code?

    Guys, i am having the same problem as Rajesh. Could you please guide me on this.

    Should i keep the shell script in the Unix directory or Windows where my apache is running.
    Also in the path, which path should be given?
