Hi

Here is the cron entry of the process/sh file

25 09 * * * /opt/bea/wls61/config/dev05/batch_automation
/MBPSBatch/vendorfeed_concentra.sh > /opt/bea/wls61/config/dev05/batc
h_automation/MBPSBatch/logs/concentra_feed.log


Now when this file (vendorfeed_concentra.sh ) is run from command prompt , than a mail notification goes to the the users whose email is entered in a xml file. This xml file is envoked by the script at runtime. I am stuck here....

Thanks
Pankaj

The .profile is not executed when scripts run from cron.
Try :
Code:
25 09 * * * . $HOME/.profile; /opt/bea/wls61/config/dev05/batch_automation
/MBPSBatch/vendorfeed_concentra.sh > /opt/bea/wls61/config/dev05/batc
h_automation/MBPSBatch/logs/concentra_feed.log

Jean-Pierre.
