query to get a value from database
Hi friends,

I have written a script which retrieves one value from the database.
It takes time for the sql query to get the desired output. So the query runs fine from TOAD or from UNIX console.

However if I put this in a script it doesn't work. The script is as below.

#! /bin/ksh
DB_VALID_CDR=`sqlplus -s username/password<<!EOF | grep -v "^Connected" 2>&1
set termout off echo off feedback off pause off timing off time off
set pages 0
clear breaks
clear compute
set termout on
select a.VALUE_INTEGER from client_statistics a, statistic_type b where a.STATISTICS_TYPE=b.Statistic_type_id and a.STATISTICS_OBJECT like '%20071217102445_9673324_AG40_20071217101738_0000002118%' and b.STATISTIC_TYPE='valid_cdrs'
EXIT
!EOF`
echo $DB_VALID_CDR

I strongly believe that the issue is with the query taking time to return the value.

Please let me know how to tackle the issue.

Many thanks

recoll

RECOLL(1)						      General Commands Manual							 RECOLL(1)

NAME

       recoll - user interface for the Recoll full text search system

SYNOPSIS

       recoll [ -c <configdir> ] [ -o | -l | -f | -a ] [ -t ] [ -q <query> ]

DESCRIPTION

       The recoll command will start the graphical user interface for querying the Recoll database.

       On the first run, recoll will create the user configuration which can be customized before starting the first indexation.

       The -c option specifies the configuration directory name, overriding the default or $RECOLL_CONFDIR.

       The  -q	option	can be used to specify an initial query on the command line. This query will be interpreted by default as a query language
       string.	If -a is specified, the query string will be interpreted as an all words simple search query. If -o is specified, the query string
       will  be  interpreted  as  an  any word simple search query. If -f is specified, the query string will be interpreted as a file name simple
       search query. If -l is specified, the query string will be interpreted as a query language simple search query.

       If -t is specified, the Graphical User Interface will not be started, and results will  be  printed  to	the  standard  output.	Additional
       options	understood  by	the  recollq  command may be specified in this case. These can control the output format and the maximum number of
       results to be printed.

       Please refer to online help for a full description.
