Amio,

Not sure why you are using awk with date command. You can as well use date command as shown below.


Code:
month=`date '+%b'`
day=`date '+%d'`
year=`date '+%Y'`
time=`date '+%H%M%S'`

Use man date for more options.

Then, try to execute your script. You should have no newline characters.

HTH,

Regards,

Praveen
