java Runtime.exec to run shell script - cannot open file

Question

I am using Runtime.getRuntime().exec() to run a shell script from java code.

    String[] cmd = {\"sh\",  \"build.sh\", \"/Path/to my/sh file\"};
    try{
           


        

Answer 1

Try this:

 String[] cmd = {"sh build.sh", "/Path/to my/shfile"};

and better to use ProcessBuilder

ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("sh build.sh", "/Path/to my/shfile");
