I want to execute a Unix shell script from within Oracle Procedure. Is this possible? I can not get it to work.

Let's say I have a Unix shell script call "test.sh". Within "test.sh" is an "echo Hello" statement. I've been trying to run this script from Oracle using an external call to C 'system("test.sh");' but can't get it to work.

C's system errored out by returning a number 256 instead of 0 (zero) - zero if command ran successfully.

Please let me know. Thanks.
