How to execute a batch file from mango
-
I am using Event Handler Process type to execute a .bat file triggered by an event.
I would like to know how can I use relative paths there.
Or where should I put the file in order to just call it without giving the path.
-
On my instance (and i believe this is common) the process work directory is <tomcat>/bin. Relative paths should work, so if your bat file is in <tomcat>, you can say "../foo.bat".
-
I think this applies if you start Tomcat with the scripts in bin. If you start by some other means - say, init.d or something - the work dir may be different. Try the command "pwd" and look for output in the Tomcat console. It will be an info message.
-
On my Unbuntu system it is directly under the Tomcat directory.
Joel.
