I have following code on my Apache Tika Maven project. This code works when I test locally, but fails when it's attached as external jar in Apache Solr (container is Tomcat).
String cmd; contains command string that will convert file with input as ./convert.bin input.custom output.xml I checked that convert.bin and input.custom exists. String cmd; // As explained above File out = new File(dir_path, output.xml); // dir_path is file path Process ps = null; try { ps = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd); // execute command int exitVal = ps.waitFor(); logger.info("Executing Runtime successful with exit value of " + exitVal); // exitVal is 0 } catch (Exception e) { logger.error("Exception in executing Runtime: " + e); // not reaching here } // I get "Out file does not exist", although I should get the proper output if (out.exists()) logger.info("Out file exists]"); else logger.info("Out file does not exist]"); // reaches here out.setWritable(true); out.setReadable(true); out.setExecutable(true); out.deleteOnExit(); // I get FileNotFoundException here InputStream xml_stream = new FileInputStream(out); I'm really confused because I get the right result locally (Maven test), but not when it is on Tomcat.
