Arun,

Thanks again. The wrapper script seems to work with out any error messages however it does not produce any email. Here is what i did:

changed the sleep value to 30 in Wrapper so i need not have to wait long to see the eamil.
Ran wrapper.

wrapper seems to execute updatevs script successfully but i was expecting wrapper script to display the message "completed successfully".

commented sleep in wrapper, I modified "updatevs" script to ensure it fails hoping the wrapper to send an email but wrapper does not send any mail.

The mailx command does send out an email when this command is run on its own.

Please can you see where i am going wrong.

ikisite-wrapper

ikisite-wrapper(1)					      General Commands Manual						ikisite-wrapper(1)

NAME

       ikisite-wrapper - suid wrapper for ikisite

SYNOPSIS

       ikisite-wrapper subcommand options

DESCRIPTION

       ikisite-wrapper is a wrapper around ikisite. It is designed to be safely made suid root, though it is not currently suid by default.

       A  few  ikisite subcommands can be run using the wrapper without any authorisation at all. These include: create, branch, list, sitelookup,
       checklock, updatecustomersite, and enabledns. So making the wrapper suid allows any user to create a site.

       Other ikisite subcommands can only be run using the wrapper by users who specify a nonce in the IKISITE_NONCE environment  variable.  These
       include: delete, changesetup, domains, and deletenonce.

       A  site's  current  nonces  are stored in its .ikisite-nonce file. A nonce can be generated by root or the site's user via using the creat-
       enonce subcommand, but it's usually generated by passing --createnonce to the create or branch subcommands. This allows anyone to create or
       branch a site and then use the nonce to allow further configuration of it (and delete it if something goes wrong).

       Subcommands that can be called by the wrapper either without or with a nonce should be sure to fully validate their inputs.
