    Default Runtime.getRuntime().exec(shellscript)

    Hi
    working on existing program, calling Process process =Runtime.getRuntime().exec(shellscript), but always getting IO exception
    java.io.IOException: Cannot run program ,not found
    this is happening in unix environment, saw in unix path variable setting where the script exists,
    my doubt is is that shell script will see in the unix paht where shell script exists, or which default path Runtime.exec() will verify mentioned shell script.

    how the Runtime.exec(shellscript) will call the shell script , please explain

    Default Re: Runtime.getRuntime().exec(shellscript)

    Have you tried giving the full path to the script file
    Or put the script file in the current directory where the java program is executing?

    Also have you tried with java program with a different script or program to execute?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
