Hi,

I tried to call a Shell Script on the ISeries with

syslib.setRemoteUser("***", "***");

SysLib.callCmd("path.sh");

But i got an error

Fehler: com.ibm.as400.access.AS400SecurityException: Password is *NONE..

Hi Marcel,

Maybe try this:

SysLib.callCmd("qsh cmd(path.sh)");

You may also need to fully qualify the path unless the script is in the users home directory.

Hi Daron,

this doesn't work.

SysLib.callCmd("qsh cmd(path.sh)");

The path i'm calling is correctly ...

I shortened the path for this example!

I think I have to set an user and a password for the call, but "syslib.setRemoteUser" doesn't work for "callCmd".

Kind regards

Hi Marcel,

Ah, I didn't pay close enough attention to your question and the sample code.  That should teach me not to post responses after a long day.

After reviewing the documentation, I believe SysLib.callCmd would execute on the local machine; however, I could be wrong about that (it's now early in my work day and the coffee hasn't kicked in yet).

I'm thinking that maybe coding a linkage part in the build descriptor mapped to QCMDEXC or your own custom program object on the IBM i which calls the shell script.

Are you generating java project?  What is your server?

Hi Daron,

we created a CL Program which we call from our java gen project.

Thank you!

Hi Marcel,

Does the remote call to your CL Program seem like the right solution?

Perhaps this topic from the RBD v9.1.1 documentation may be helpful.

Hi,

it is not the best solution, but it works...

Thank you!

Hey..know you said you got it working...

The use of syslib.callcmd does not use a remote call, so the setRemoteUser would not be used.  It is also not "controlled" by the linkage table.   It is essentially doing a JNI call to an executable on the system.   I would assume it should take on the authority of whatever userid the java is running on and look in its library list/path for the executable.

I have not tried it specifically for a shell script on the ifs side of iSeries , so could be wrong, but I am pretty sure this is how it would work.
