Runtime.exec() is not a shell. The single-String forms do not parse quotes.
You should use the String[] forms, with each arg in a separate String. If
it still doesn't work, post the exact Java code you're using.
See the API docs for Runtime's single-String exec() methods. They don't
directly say "quotes are not parsed". Instead, they mention a default
StringTokenizer. You must then read the API docs for StringTokenizer to
realize that it doesn't parse quotes. Or you could search the list
archives for exec, because this is a fairly common question.
