This will work. You wrote the function wrong.
Hi,

I made the changes. but now it gives Not connected message 2 times while connecting to FTP. The User name & password are correct as I am able to connect to FTP manually.

Code:
bash-2.03# echo $hostname
97.253.98.14
bash-2.03# echo $user_name
postgres
bash-2.03# echo $pass_word
postgres
bash-2.03# echo $file_name
ONLINE_WAIVER_2011052816.txt
bash-2.03#
bash-2.03#
bash-2.03# cat f.sh
#!/bin/bash
source upload.sh
upload
bash-2.03#
bash-2.03#
bash-2.03# cat upload.sh
#!/bin/bash
function upload(){
  ftp -inv $hostname <<EOF
  user $user_name $pass_word
  put $file_name
  bye
EOF
}
bash-2.03#
bash-2.03# ./f.sh
Not connected.
Not connected.
bash-2.03#

Logging to FTP manually.
Code:
bash-2.03# ftp 97.253.98.14
Connected to 97.253.98.14.
220 L028XRAPDN FTP server ready.
331 Password required for postgres.
230 User postgres logged in.
ftp>
 
The Username & password are saved in .netrc file.

machine 97.253.98.14 login postgres password postgres
[/code]

Hi,

I am able to FTP the file if I hard code the filename. But if I use $file_name instead of filename, the file is not uploaded on FTP.

Code:
bash-2.03# cat upload.sh
#!/bin/bash
function upload(){
  ftp -inv 97.253.98.14 <<EOF
  user postgres postgres

Code:
user@host> (/home/user) $ a=10
user@host> (/home/user) $ vi test.sh
user@host> (/home/user) $
user@host> (/home/user) $
user@host> (/home/user) $ ./test.sh

user@host> (/home/user) $

Oh man you made mistake accessing evn variable inside your script.

First when you set a variable at your prompt, like i did a=10, then the same won't be available inside the script you are running.

The prompt shell is a different process and the script you are running is a different process.
If you are planning to share it, you have it to make it as environment variable by using export.

Check the output i have posted, i was not able to access a inside test.sh, but in the prompt i am getting it

Hi,

Thanks.

I can now access the exported $file_name variable from inside the script.
