Process Builder error while running Python script by passing arguments

Question

I have one Python script to run using java ProcessBuilder . Python script requires 2 arguments.

Arg1 :

H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clips\Network_ETLs\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clip\MOUNTAINWEST_AZ.gdb

Arg2:

 H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\Network_DS_ProBuild\Wp4\Network_Build_00_00_0000\WD_Mountainwest_AZ > H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\Network_DS_ProBuild\Wp4\Network_Build_00_00_0000\WD_Mountainwest_AZ\logs\BBB2_NB_Script1_AZ.txt

Below is the String array i am passing to ProcessBuilder to execute

[C:\Pythion27\Python.exe,H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\Network_Build_Script.v.6.2_2017.12.08\Script.1-2_Trunk_20170609\Src\PY\ComcastNetworkProcessing\ComcastNetworkProcessing.py,H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clips\Network_ETLs\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clip\MOUNTAINWEST_AZ.gdb,H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\Network_DS_ProBuild\Wp4\Network_Build_00_00_0000\WD_Mountainwest_AZ > H:\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\!eGIS.Network_Build\Network_DS_ProBuild\Wp4\Network_Build_00_00_0000\WD_Mountainwest_AZ\logs\BBB2_NB_Script1_AZ.txt]

When I am forming and running above using ProcessBuilder I am getting Prompt message saying python.exe stopped working and giving exit value 1073741819 on command prompt . When I am running the same in command prompt directly it is executing without any errors.

Can any one help me on this, how I can run this using java ProcessBuilder.

Answer 1

> only has special meaning in a shell, like cmd.exe.

Currently, you are passing a very long filename which includes spaces and a > in it to Python.

The correct way to redirect a ProcessBuilder's output is with its redirectOutput method:

ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder(
    "C:\\Pythion27\\Python.exe",
    "H:\\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\\!eGIS.Network_Build\\Network_Build_Script.v.6.2_2017.12.08\\Script.1-2_Trunk_20170609\\Src\\PY\\ComcastNetworkProcessing\\ComcastNetworkProcessing.py",
    "H:\\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\\!eGIS.Network_Build\\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clips\\Network_ETLs\\eGIS.CoE.Network_Clip\\MOUNTAINWEST_AZ.gdb",
    "H:\\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\\!eGIS.Network_Build\\Network_DS_ProBuild\\Wp4\\Network_Build_00_00_0000\\WD_Mountainwest_AZ");

builder.redirectOutput(new File(
    "H:\\!eGIS.Dev_Workbench\\eGIS.ArcGIS_Workbench\\!eGIS.Network_Build\\Network_DS_ProBuild\\Wp4\\Network_Build_00_00_0000\\WD_Mountainwest_AZ\\logs\\BBB2_NB_Script1_AZ.txt"));
