imagemagick Convert working in Command line but not in java process runtime

I have a tif image where I am trying to draw a box and compress the image with LZW compression simultaneously.
this is the command I am running, and it works fine from windows command line.
C:\ImageMagick-7.1.0\convert.exe "C:\Users\admin\Orig.tif" -draw "rectangle 576,1069,943,1114" -compress LZW "C:\Users\admin\DrawLZW.tif"
when I try to execute the same command with my java program, I get an image file created, but the file size is 1kb
String[] cmd = {"C:\\ImageMagick-7.1.0\\convert.exe", "\"C:\\Users\\chris.macwilliams\\Orig.tif\"", "-draw", "\"rectangle 576,1069,943,1114\"", "–compress","LZW", "\"C:\\Users\\chris.macwilliams\\DrawLZWwithJava.tif\""};
LOGGER.info(cmd);
Process pt = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
pt.waitFor();
if (pt.exitValue() != 0) {
LOGGER.error("ERROR with Image Magic Command exit value:" + pt.exitValue()+ " "+ commandTIF);
Any Ideas here?
Using IM Version: ImageMagick-7.1.0
I have included the test images that I am getting the errors on.

If you are using an array, it's easier to declare the size of the array and add each argument before executing the cmd.
private void redactCMDArray() {
String[] cmd = new String[7];
cmd[0] = "C:\\ImageMagick-7.1.0\\convert.exe";
cmd[1] = "\"C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\Orig.tif\"";
cmd[2] = "-draw";
cmd[3] = "rectangle 576,1069,943,1114";
cmd[4] = "-compress";
cmd[5] = "LZW";
cmd[6] = "\"C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\DrawLZW_CMD_Option1.tif\"";
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(cmd));
Process pt;
try {
pt = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
pt.waitFor();
if (pt.exitValue() != 0) System.out.println("ERROR with Image Magic Command exit value:" + pt.exitValue()+ " " + Arrays.toString(cmd));
} catch (IOException | InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Another option, as stated by Esther, is to add a whitespace between parameters within the command and not pass an array.
private void redactCMDLine(){
String imPath = "C:\\ImageMagick-7.1.0\\convert.exe";
String imEXE = "/convert.exe";
String cmd = imPath + imEXE + " " + "C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\Orig.tif" + " " + "-draw \"rectangle 576,1069,943,1114\"" + " " + "-compress LZW" + " " + "C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\DrawLZW_CMD_Option2.tif";
try {
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
p.waitFor();
System.out.println("Exit code: " + p.exitValue());
} catch (InterruptedException | IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
If the IM4Java jar is available, a more straightforward solution would be the following.
private void redactIM4Java() {
ConvertCmd convertCmd = new ConvertCmd();
IMOperation op = new IMOperation();
op.addImage("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\Orig.tif");
op.fill("Black");
op.draw("rectangle 576,1069,943,1114");
op.compress("LZW");
op.format("TIF");
op.addImage("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\images\\DrawLZW_MB_JavaIM4Java.tif");
try {
convertCmd.run(op);
} catch (IOException | InterruptedException | IM4JavaException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

runtime.getruntime.exec does not recognize executable file

I am using Runtime.getRuntime().exec() method for running 'optimathsat.exe' file. My code is like
public boolean runOptimathSat() throws InterruptedException {
boolean runSucceed = false;
smtInputFileDirectory = getInputDirectory();
txtOutputFileDirectory = getOutputDirectory();
optimathsatDirectory = getOptimathSatDirectory();
if ((smtInputFileDirectory != null) && (txtOutputFileDirectory != null)
&& (optimathsatDirectory != null)) {
if (isWindows()) {
String winCommand;
winCommand = "cmd /c cd " + optimathsatDirectory + " && optimathsat.exe -opt.print_objectives=True -opt.output_format=old -optimization.card_constr_encoding=2 -optimization.dpll.search_strategy=1 -preprocessor.toplevel_propagation=False -preprocessor.simplification=0 < " + smtInputFileDirectory + " > " + txtOutputFileDirectory + " 2>& 1";
System.err.println("COMMAND: "+winCommand);
try {
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(winCommand);
p.waitFor();
runSucceed = true;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return runSucceed;}
After running this code, it shows the below line in console
COMMAND: cmd /c cd "C:\Users\Karencom\OptiMathSAT\optimathsat-1.5.1-windows-64-bit-mingw\bin" && optimathsat.exe -opt.print_objectives=True -opt.output_format=old -optimization.card_constr_encoding=2 -optimization.dpll.search_strategy=1 -preprocessor.toplevel_propagation=False -preprocessor.simplification=0 < "C:/Users/Karencom/runtime-New_configuration/tetest/Optimathsat/bibi.smt2" > "C:/Users/Karencom/runtime-New_configuration/tetest/Optimathsat/bibi.txt" 2>& 1
and shows below error in bibi.txt file
'optimathsat.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
However, when I copy some lines of the above code in a separate project(which has just one class), and replace the generated command in winCommand variable, it works perfectly.
import java.io.IOException;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
try {
String winCommand="cmd /c cd"+ " \"C:\\Users\\Karencom\\OptiMathSAT\\optimathsat-1.5.1-windows-64-bit-mingw\\bin\" && optimathsat.exe -opt.print_objectives=True -opt.output_format=old -optimization.card_constr_encoding=2 -optimization.dpll.search_strategy=1 -preprocessor.toplevel_propagation=False -preprocessor.simplification=0 < \"C:/Users/Karencom/runtime-New_configuration/tetest/Optimathsat/sensen.smt2\" > \"C:/Users/Karencom/runtime-New_configuration/tetest/Optimathsat/sensen.txt\" 2>& 1";
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(winCommand);
p.waitFor();
System.err.println("COMMAND: "+winCommand);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
I guess that first project's configuration is not right but I do not know how can I resolve it.

You are using cmd for 2 things:
Setting the current directory
Redirecting input and output
Rather than using cmd for that, you should use Java's ProcessBuilder.
String[] winCommand = {
"optimathsat.exe",
"-opt.print_objectives=True",
"-opt.output_format=old",
"-optimization.card_constr_encoding=2",
"-optimization.dpll.search_strategy=1",
"-preprocessor.toplevel_propagation=False",
"-preprocessor.simplification=0"
};
Process p = new ProcessBuilder(winCommand)
.directory(new File(optimathsatDirectory)) // "cd " + optimathsatDirectory
.redirectInput(new File(smtInputFileDirectory)) // "< " + smtInputFileDirectory
.redirectOutput(new File(txtOutputFileDirectory)) // "> " + txtOutputFileDirectory
.redirectErrorStream(true) // 2>& 1
.start();
p.waitFor();

Error Could not find or load main class -jar

I am working on a java UNO project, OS : Ubuntu 14. I am calling exec via passing command to run via a jar file with some set of sub commands of that jar file.
String finalOutputMSG = "";
String[] cmd = {JAVA_LOCATION, " -jar ", JAR_LOCATION, " " + inputFile, " -dir ", ".isc", " -out xml"};//java location provides java location, jar location provides jar location, inputfile contains input file's location -dir provides output directory with name .isc, -out is output file with file format for output is xml
Similar command ran properly without showing any errors but in a case where I am trying to import a file and convert it into another format eg .xlsx to .xml, is giving error. In commands it worked, I have already generated outputs from an input file.
finalOutputMSG = exec(cmd);

Error: Could not find or load main class -jar
I have searched on the issue, but could not find any help that is useful, I could not understand, what is missing.

Solution:
String[] cmd = {JAVA_LOCATION, " -jar ", JAR_LOCATION, " " + inputFile, " -dir ", ".isc", " -out xml"};
I replaced the values that printed in console, and ran the command so got on terminal, it worked fine.
Solution: the command to be used must be without any spaces in the ends. Because terminal in linux interprets the commands like for "ls", but in java/ any programming language, it doesn't interprets for ls, so in case of the following parameter cmdarray
public Process exec(String[] cmdarray)
throws IOException
takes the command as it is.
String[] cmd = {JAVA_LOCATION, "-jar", JAR_LOCATION, inputFile, "-dir", ".isc", "-out", "xml"};

How to run a MySQL script using ProcessBuilder?

I have a SQL script which I would like to execute from a Java class, running on Windows. I am currently trying to do this using ProcessBuilder in the following function:
public static boolean runSqlScript(String filename, String user, String password) {
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("mysql", "-u"+user, "-p"+password, "< "+ filename);
try {
Process pr = pb.start();
BufferedReader errors = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getErrorStream()));
BufferedReader output = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
while (pr.isAlive()) {
try {
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
break;
}
}
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
int status = pr.exitValue();
return (status == 0);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Error running command: " + e.getMessage());
return false;
}
}
The filename is the absolute path to the script, and the user and password are verified correct. But when I run this, I get the error:
ERROR 1102 (42000): Incorrect database name '< c:/path/to/script.sql'
Why is it interpreting that as a database name rather than a command line argument? Can I use ProcessBuilder to run the script like this?

You need to add database name and it will work ProcessBuilder pb =
new ProcessBuilder("cmd", "/c", "mysql", "-u"+user, "-p"+password,"dbname", " < "+ filename);

Runtime.exec() can also be used to send commands, which doesn't seem to have the same issue as ProcessBuilder:
public static boolean runSqlScriptRuntime(String filename, String user, String password) {
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
try {
String cmd = "cmd /c mysql -u " + user + " -p" + password + " < " + filename;
System.out.println(cmd);
Process pr = rt.exec(cmd);
BufferedReader errors = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getErrorStream()));
BufferedReader output = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
while (pr.isAlive()) {
try {
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
break;
}
}
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
int status = pr.exitValue();
return (status == 0);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Error running command: " + e.getMessage());
return false;
}
}
An alternative to trying to simulate command-line arguments is to call the SQL script from inside mysql, as described here.
public static boolean runSqlScript(String filename, String user, String password) {
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("mysql", "-u"+user, "-p"+password);
try {
Process pr = pb.start();
BufferedReader errors = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getErrorStream()));
BufferedReader output = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
BufferedWriter input = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(pr.getOutputStream()));
input.write("source " + filename + ";");
input.flush();
input.write("quit;");
input.flush();
input.close();
while (pr.isAlive()) {
try {
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
break;
}
}
System.err.println(errors.readLine());
System.out.println(output.readLine());
int status = pr.exitValue();
return (status == 0);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Error running command: " + e.getMessage());
return false;
}
}
This will run MySQL and then call the script. However, I originally was using ProcessBuilder because I thought the script could be handled in a single command line - with a solution like this, it probably makes more sense to just use JDBC.

How can I execute linux terminal command from java?

I want to automatically change the ip address of an Ubuntu 12.04 PC by a program fires at startup. For some certain reasons, I want to code it in Java.
Exactly the solution is written here:
Java - Execute a .SH file
But it does not work in my case. I could not manage to find why,essentially my case is a special case of so called thread, I try to run a sudo-command in linux with
public static void executeCommandLine(String strCommand){
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
try {
Process p = rt.exec(strCommand);
if(p==null){
System.out.println("Error in process");
}
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I call this executeCommandLine() function from another function as follows:
public static void changeIpAddress(String strIpAddress, String strRootPassword, String strEthDevice){
String strCommandLine = "";
if(PLATFORM == PLATFORM_LINUX){
strCommandLine = "/bin/echo " + strRootPassword + "| sudo -S /sbin/ifconfig " + strEthDevice + " " + strIpAddress;
}else if(PLATFORM == PLATFORM_WINDOWS){
// TODO: Write for Windows
}else{
System.out.println("OS not supported");
}
System.out.println("Executed command:");
System.out.println(strCommandLine);
executeCommandLine(strCommandLine);
}
