python under java

[motokoit]

For some reason i need to start a python script from inside a java code. The
technique is standard

Process proc =  Runtime.getRuntime().exec(python myscript.py)

and so worked for months

since yestarday the same instruction does not work but the line is correct
because from the terminal prompt it works! By the way the instruction work
for every other command, for example

Process proc =  Runtime.getRuntime().exec(emacs)

works. Some suggestion?
My machine is a Linux Mandrake64 10.1

At a command prompt, do which python to see where the python binary
lives. Then specify the full path to python in your exec() call,
instead of just python. What probably happens is that you don't have
the python binary in your PATH when you run exec() from your Java code.
