Can we execute series of commands from a single script?
Hi,
I am trying to call a certain command from within a shell script, but everytime it executes the script, only the first command runs and it comes out of the control, how do i do it?
code :
````````
#!/bin/sh
#
#
#i=1
#while [ $i -le 3 ]
#do
# i=`expr $i + 1`
#done
StoreXML -project xnat -l work/sample1.xml -u admin -p admin -allowDataDeletion true
StoreXML -project xnat -l work/samnew.xml -u admin -p admin -allowDataDeletion true
StoreXML -project xnat -l work/sample.xml -u admin -p admin -allowDataDeletion true
StoreXML -project xnat -l work/latest.xml -u admin -p admin -allowDataDeletion true
#StoreXML -project xnat -l work/*.xml -u admin -p admin -allowDataDeletion true
While the control comes to the first storexml, it stores the data and exits and doesn't executes the 2nd store xml command.
also, note the last line in the code...I tried storing all the xml files at once, but this too didn't work..
It stores the first xml file and exits.
what's d soln to this..ne type of help is highly appreciated

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
