Script runs fine on UNIX Server...Not through MSK Tool kit on Windows Server

madhunk · #1 (**permalink**) 12-19-2007

I have a .sh script which was running fine on all the UNIX Servers (AIX, SunSolaris). The script requires two mandatory parameters and many optional parameters. Now at a different client place who are on a Windows Server, when I try to execute the script through MKS Toolkit, there are couple of issues. The script runs very well if I don't provide any optional parameters. I don't understand why the script doesn't treat those as optional parameters. Am I invoking the wrong shell? I tried many options...

Sample script:

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
while getopts :s:u:p:f:m:w:r: Option
do
    case $Option in
        s) Server=$OPTARG;;
        u) User=$OPTARG;;
        p) PassWd=$OPTARG;;
        f) ParmFile=$OPTARG;;
        m) Mode=$OPTARG;;
        w) Warn=$OPTARG;;
        r) Rows=$OPTARG;;
        :) echo "ERROR: Invalid argument. $OPTARG requires a value."
           display_usage;;

        ?) echo "ERROR: Unknown option $OPTARG."
           display_usage;;
    esac
done

shift `expr $OPTIND - 1`

This is how it is executed.

Code:

BatchRun.sh -p <optional> <mandatory> <mandatory>

I tried many ways to give quotes around the optional parameters on the command line. But it doesn't recognize the -p on the command line.

Please advice if somebody had the same issue..
