lorcan,
When i ran the script it tells

./testingscript testingdata
cat: cannot open /export/home/niit-dev/Output.txt
The contents of the outFile are
The count_fields is 45
The count_fields is 45

Check the 1 field of the INPUT FILE

My input file is ---
00,11,21,00,00,55,00,73,83,07,00,22,39,43,00,66,00,00,00,15,00,00,44,58,67,00,87
02,14,24,30,00,00,00,70,00,00,00,00,32,47,50,60,74,00,04,16,27,38,00,00,00,00,89
00,00,00,00,42,52,61,71,86,01,00,29,33,00,59,00,75,00,03,19,00,00,45,00,68,00,88
00,13,20,31,00,00,64,76,00,05,00,00,35,41,56,00,00,81,00,00,28,00,00,57,65,79,90
06,10,00,36,40,00,00,00,80,00,12,25,00,00,51,62,72,00,09,00,00,37,49,00,69,00,84

In this the total number of count should be 15,
when i ran with my input file it shows 45 numbers whether it should be 15 because only 15 digits are there leaving all 00.

while what u suggested that only have 5 digits leaving all 00,means that should show 5 numbers only but the input file which u r follwing in that 3 rows make a line for testing purpose so that whole line should have total 15 numbers...

still it shows the same error outFile cannot be opened.
I am also trying to debug but being a novice i am not finding it.
can you try that with the inputfile which i provided.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       Use the ftprestart command to restart an FTP Server previously shut down by means of ftpshut(1M). The ftprestart command reads the shutdown

OPTIONS

       The ftprestart command supports the following options:

       -V	Display program copyright and version information, then terminate.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Sample Output from ftprestart

       The following example shows sample output from the ftprestart command:

       example% ftprestart
       ftprestart: /export/home/ftp/etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.
       ftprestart: /export/home/virtual1/etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.
       ftprestart: /etc/ftpd/shutdown.msg removed.

EXIT STATUS

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.
