Question Error executing shell script in Linux
Hi,

I have following shell script code :
------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

SCRIPTS_DIR="/scriptsDir1"
# tables login/password
APIL_USER="uname/pswd"
I2_USER="uname/pswd"
# Database
DB="db1"

cd "$SCRIPTS_DIR/scriptsDir2"

sqlplus "$APIL_USER@$DB" @update.sql > $SCRIPTS_DIR/scriptsDir2/logs/update.log

exit
------------------------------------------------------------------
I get following errors:
- : command not found : At every blank line
- : No such file or directorysh: line 12: cd: /abpp/informaticadata/scripts

Also to execute the shell need to prefix the file name with "sh".

But if I execute the same script on another Linux server it does NOT throw error. Also no prefixing of "sh" for execution is required.

Can anyone tell what settings to be checked???
I have checked user level settings, they are same!!!

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Chaitrali.

chsh

CHSH(1) 							   User Commands							   CHSH(1)

NAME

       chsh - change login shell

SYNOPSIS

       chsh [options] [LOGIN]

DESCRIPTION

       The chsh command changes the user login shell. This determines the name of the user's initial login command. A normal user may only change
       the login shell for her own account; the superuser may change the login shell for any account.

OPTIONS

       The options which apply to the chsh command are:

       -h, --help
	   Display help message and exit.

       -s, --shell SHELL
	   The name of the user's new login shell. Setting this field to blank causes the system to select the default login shell.

       If the -s option is not selected, chsh operates in an interactive fashion, prompting the user with the current login shell. Enter the new
       value to change the shell, or leave the line blank to use the current one. The current shell is displayed between a pair of [ ] marks.

NOTE

       The only restriction placed on the login shell is that the command name must be listed in /etc/shells, unless the invoker is the superuser,
       and then any value may be added. An account with a restricted login shell may not change her login shell. For this reason, placing /bin/rsh
       in /etc/shells is discouraged since accidentally changing to a restricted shell would prevent the user from ever changing her login shell
       back to its original value.

FILES

       /etc/passwd
	   User account information.

       /etc/shells
	   List of valid login shells.

       /etc/login.defs
	   Shadow password suite configuration.

SEE ALSO

       chfn(1), login.defs(5), passwd(5).
