camel "exec" component, how to reference the executable

[clinton <cl...@ionep.com>]

I have a route that I want to call out to a shell script from (Linux). Using
spring XML dsl
It seems that the path I put in the CamelExecCommandExecutable header is
being treated as relative to the current directory, while I gave it an
absolute path.
So, I tried putting several ../../../ in front of my script name, to back
down to where I know the right dirs. were.  I've verified that the resulting
concatenation of path info, does in fact resolve to my shell script, but
came continues to tell me that the file doesn't exist.  
I couldn't find in the doc that this was used as a relative path, but it
seems like that must be the case. 
Running in Jboss EAP 6.2
I could put the target dir in the PATH, but would like to understand what is
going on.
Thanks
Clint

Never mind.  Error msg said file not found, but problem was first line of
shell script wasn't correct to invoke the shell

What version of Camel are you using?

The following works for me in Camel 2.17.3
<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
    <route id="exec-path-text">
        <from uri="direct://trigger" />
        <setHeader headerName="CamelExecCommandExecutable">
            <constant>/tmp/my-script.sh</constant>
        </setHeader>
        <to uri="exec://dummy-target" />
        <log message="result: ${body}" />
        <to uri="mock://result" />
    </route>
</camelContext>
It correctly calls the script in /tmp
