Thanks for the tips. I did check cygcheck -c and noticed expect was install=
ed and it returns 0 when the script is run from the command prompt. Seems s=
omething specific only to the way the JSP is calling the shell. Maybe somet=
hing is not passed.

Thanks for your help,

David

Perhaps you are missing some required DLL for expect.  Check the exit
code after running expect.  Assuming expect failed due to a missing DLL,
the exit code should indicate that by being non-zero.

You might try reinstalling at least expect and perhaps all other Cygwin
packages.  I think cygcheck may be able to tell you what exactly might
be missing as well if you would like to debug this further.
