Hi,

I want to execute a perl program which is in my linux machine using right click tool.I have made changes in /usr/Spectrum/custom/console/config/custom-menu-config.xml file .

my custom-menu-config.xml file looks like this:

My perl script

I am able to execute my perl program using command prompt.But when I am trying to execute using menu items I am unable to get output my oneclick is showing empty output:

Can someone suggest me where I am going wrong.

The script should run as spectrum owner. Are you able to execute the script if you're logged in as spectrum owner? It's a better idea to have everything that is not from the default SPECTRUM installation located in $SPECROOT/custom. This way, the file would have permission to be executed by the spectrum owner and you'll have everything in one place if you want to migrate configurations across servers.

Thanks for reply Catalin.

I am able to execute script as spectrum owner from linux. I have copied the perl script to $SPECROOT/custom location. But from oneclick menu I am unable to execute the script my output window is showing empty.

If the program has been just added,  a OneClick tomcat restart is required, as Tomcat will scan this file custom-menu-config.xml on startup and create a list of programs that it will allow to run.  This has been done as enhancing security since Spectrum 9.4.0.

Hi Sheethal,

I have tested your script in my lab (Spectrum 10.2) and I don't encounter the problem. It works perfectly. What Spectrum version you are using? You may want to enable "Launch Servlet" debug item on OneClick Web Admin > Administration > Debugging (at 2nd header) > Web Server Debug Page (Runtime) page and reproduce the issue. What do you see on Tomcat's log?
