why script fails sometime?
Hi,
I am trying to run a shell script on solaris,some time it works fine and some times it fails unexpectedly. There is a script called "autostart.sh" which automatically starts the Application server but some times the script fails to strat the application server. can anyone tell me what is the reason , why it dn't work properly . The Script is ; ____________________________________________ #!/bin/bash /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/ ./startManager.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/ .startNode.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/ ./startServer.sh server1 /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/ ./apachectl start _______________________________________________ Thanks in advance. |

I'm surprised it ever works... why are there spaces between the directory name and the script name? Try making it like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/startManager.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/startNode.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/startServer.sh server1 /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/apachectl start |

Thanks Annihilannic
Code:
#!/bin/bash /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/./startManager.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/.startNode.sh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/./startServer.sh server1 /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/./apachectl start .......... Spaces are not in script , i know it will not work if there would be any space, i m sure that there is no error in this scrips and at this time script is running but some time it works and some time no.I have automate and it works on system stratup , I don't know why this problem occurs.

When does it work and when does it not work? Does it work when you run it manually, but not when you system boots up? Or is it completely random... i.e. sometimes when you run it manually it works, sometimes it doesn't?

The scripts mentioned here are the default start scripts for IBMs Websphere product. They themselves run a whole lot of commands and any of these commands can fail for some or the other reason.
In other words: nothing of the information you gave us so far is sufficient to find out the reason. our script calls four other scripts and this process probably never fails and never will fail. That does not mean, though, that all the scripts started this way will finish sucessfully - each of them could fail for some or other reason. I have worked with a server running Websphere once and i know that it can be tricky sometimes to find ot why it failed to start. I fear it will boil down to thorough troubleshooting on your side to find out the reason. The following are just some (very general) suggestions which may or ma not help you find the problem. - You run your script under bash instead of ksh. bash is not the systems default shell and hence using it a potential risk. While i suppose it won't make any difference it is on the safer side to use "/bin/ksh" instead of bash. - Try inserting "set -x" at the start of the four mentioned scripts and capture the output to some file to see what is going on: Code:
#!/bin/ksh /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/startManager.sh >/tmp/start.1.log 2>&1 /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/startNode.sh >/tmp/start.2.log 2>&1 /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin/startServer.sh server1 >/tmp/start.3.log 2>&1 /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/apachectl start >/tmp/start.4.log 2>&1 I hope this helps. bakunin |
