Hi All,
Am using the below command to start my application using the root user
su - bin -c "/home/bin/test/start.sh"

but am getting the error becaue i have set some environment varibales in bin's .profile

when i execute the command start.sh by logging directly into bin account it's working fine

But where as if i ran the above command using the root user am getting error seems it's not loading the bin's .profile file

Please advise me how to load the bin's profile while using the su

One way is to "source" the .profile of bin in your script, something like:

. /home/bin/.profile

Thanks for the reply, I have tried the way you suggested but no luck still it's not taking the bin's environment varibales

Should work, did you used the right path? Have you placed the line above the other commands in your script?

Regards

Yes i have placed properly only, below is the command

./home/bin/.profile

su - bin -c "/opt/bin/test/receiver/start.sh

There's must be a space between the dot and the slash:

. /home/bin/.profile
