ali560045 · #1 (**permalink**) 01-28-2008

i have a script called mail1
------------------------------------------

#!/bin/ksh

set --`cd /`

count=0
count=`cat var/spool/mail/pipe | grep "From MAILER-DAEMON" | wc -l`

echo $count

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

actually this script is in dir /ednpdtu3/u01/pipe and it is accessing file pipe from dir var/spool/mail/ .......

but it is not able to access that file, i think some problem in logic,plz help me in that

This can be a permission issue,check out the permission of the directory which has pipe file in that.

shouldn't you write /var/spool/mail/pipe instead of var/spool/mail/pipe
