Last updated on OCTOBER 05, 2022

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 10.2.0.4 and laterInformation in this document applies to any platform.
This code was tested in 10.2.0.4 and 11.2.0.2.
Symptoms
There are two issues that can appear when using a Java Stored Procedure to interact with the operating system (OS).
The first issue is when using a Java Stored Procedure to interact with the files on the OS works when specific files are referenced, but incorporating the asterisk '*' as a wildcard has no affect.
This means when executing commands like "ls myfile.txt" will work but requests like "ls *.txt" will not.
The second issue is when a particular directory is being referenced the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory is always included. This means when executing the "ls /tmp", files from the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory will be included in the output.
