Short Description
I have to run Ghostscript on AIX. It works in command line:
XXXXXXXX:i2zate:/home/i2zate>/usr/bin/gs -dFIXEDMEDIA -dPDFFitPage -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dSAFER -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=0 -dDEVICEWIDTH=90 -dDEVICEHEIGHT=120 -dORIENT1=true -sDEVICE=jpeg -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile=1.jpg porsche.pdf

If I run the same from Java, it displays an error:
ERROR: exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/bin/gs because of the following errors:
ERROR: 0509-022 Cannot load module /usr/lib/libcairo.a(libcairo.so.2).

I dont understand, why this happens. Do you have any idea? Some environmental info you can find below. If you need something else, let me know please.

The java code I use:
package biz;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.List;
public class DummyCaller {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, InterruptedException {
printSystemProperties();
System.out.println();
printEnvironment();
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( args );
new StreamReader("OUT ", process.getInputStream() ).start();
new StreamReader("ERROR", process.getErrorStream() ).start();
process.waitFor();
}
private static void printSystemProperties() {
System.out.println( "System.getProperties(): " );
List<String> keys = new ArrayList<String>();
for (Object key : System.getProperties().keySet()) {
keys.add( (String) key );
}
Collections.sort(keys);
for (Object key : keys ) {
System.out.println( "" + key + "=" + System.getProperty((String) key) );
}
}
private static void printEnvironment() {
System.out.println( "System.getEnv(): " );
List<String> keys = new ArrayList<String>();
keys.addAll(System.getenv().keySet());
Collections.sort(keys);
for (Object key : keys ) {
System.out.println( "" + key + "=" + System.getenv().get( key) );
}
}
public static class StreamReader extends Thread {
private BufferedReader br;
private String streamName;
public StreamReader(String streamName, InputStream is ) {
super();
this.streamName = streamName;
br = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(is));
}
@Override
public void run() {
String line = null;
try {
while ( (line = br.readLine() ) != null ) {
System.out.println( streamName + ": " + line );
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}

It turned out, that the LIBPATH is not correct, what is passed by Java to the forked process instance.
1. Step: getting LIBPATH for Ghostscript:
After a lot of googling, i have found this:
Here you see the index 0 (dont ask me, what it means, it was just a guess, that I need that): /opt/freeware/lib:/opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.1.0.0/4.2.3:/opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.1.0.0/4.2.3/../../..:/usr/lib:/lib
2. Step: Passing LIBPATH in java
I changed my class slightly. The DummyCaller uses the first argument it gets as LIBPATH for the forked process. See the changed method:
So the first argument is added to the environment of the ProcessBuilder.
3. Step: Making the call with correct LIBPATH
Works. Cool.
