Running java from CFEXECUTE

[jdaniels]

Can I run java classes from CFEXECUTE? Here is the code I have, and the output:

<cfexecute name=&quot;java \path\to\MyClass&quot;</cfexecute>

It doesn't seem quite right to me, as I am not sure whether 'java' is the application and the class name is its argument, and that is what should be executing. Anyway, when I run this code, I get the following error:

____________________________________
An exception occurred when invoking an external process.
The cause of this exception was that: java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: java \path\to\MyClass error=2.
____________________________________

Subsequently I tried this:

<cfexecute name=&quot;java&quot; arguments=&quot;\path\to\MyClass&quot;></cfexecute>

And got the same error.

Am I missing something? The java class works fine on its own, and I am using CFMX Server on Win2000.

PS the first line of cf code is this:

<cfexecute name=&quot;java \path\to\MyClass&quot;></cfexecute>

I did close the first cfexecute angle bracket. The Java executable is in my path variable.
