SOLVED: ExecuteCommandLine stopped working

[Tippi (Tippi Tippfehler)]

Hi there!

Since yesterday, my rule for getting weather infos stopped working.
The action runs a shell script and redirect the result into an item:

configuration: {}
triggers:
  - id: "1"
    configuration:
      cronExpression: 0 0/5 * * * ? *
    type: timer.GenericCronTrigger
conditions: []
actions:
  - inputs: {}
    id: "2"
    configuration:
      type: application/vnd.openhab.dsl.rule
      script: >-
        var result = executeCommandLine(Duration.ofSeconds(60),
        "/usr/local/bin/wego_current2aha.sh");

        logInfo("cmd", result);

        WegoCurrent.postUpdate(result);
    type: script.ScriptAction

Log:

024-02-28 07:07:51.186 [WARN ] [rg.openhab.core.io.net.exec.ExecUtil] - Failed to execute commandLine ‘[/usr/local/bin/wego_current2aha.sh]’

I did not chance anything in relation to openHAB.
I only made an ubuntu system update, but I cannot see anything suspicious with the packages:

Must be something trivial, but cannot find it
Thanks for your help! Tippi …

afaik you should better call the shell explicitly:

var result = executeCommandLine(Duration.ofSeconds(60), "/bin/bash", "/usr/local/bin/wego_current2aha.sh")

Please be aware that dsl rules do not need a semicolon in every line. The only command the semicolon is needed is return; as it needs to be set to return no value (this is the ; for).

Hi Udo!
Thank your for your response!

I just made another apt full-upgrade and reboot and now … everything is working as expected

The system only changed the following packages:

2024-02-28 08:43:30 status installed less:arm64 551-1ubuntu0.2
2024-02-28 08:43:31 status installed docker-compose-plugin:arm64 2.24.6-1~ubuntu.20.04~focal
2024-02-28 08:43:31 status installed man-db:arm64 2.9.1-1
2024-02-28 08:43:32 status installed mime-support:all 3.64ubuntu1

I have no idea what the heck was going on … as long as it works now!

PS: yes, the semicolon … a habit

Greetings, Tippi

I think that might be the issue. I had the same problem after the updating Java recently. No other change, just that update, and executeCommandLine stopped working. A restart of OH resolved the issue. Strangely nothing else was broken, just that one command. I’ve had no problem since the restart.

executeCommandLine failure with Java17 update

I’ve had a rules DSL script that has been working for a few years without problem that calls executeCommandLine. This just started failing, and I think it coincides with a recent update to Java17. I have: openjdk version “17.0.10” 2024-01-16 LTS OpenJDK Runtime Environment Zulu17.48+15-CA (build 17.0.10+7-LTS) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Zulu17.48+15-CA (build 17.0.10+7-LTS, mixed mode, sharing) The rule is: createTimer(now, [| logInfo("GetCal", "running script to collect calendar data…

Same here, after updating openjdk executeCommandLine stopped working. A restart of OH fixed the issue. Haven’t had this before, but ok for me

[jswim788 (John Schmitz)]

As an FYI to anyone updating Java 17 - this happened again with the latest update. Needs an OH restart to resolve the executeCommandLine issue.
