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?

Do these scripts output any "interesting" information? Do the processes themselves keep logfiles??
