Cron and multiple scripts problem.
Hello All,
I have 3 scripts namingly 1X 2X and 3X.
I have one directory ABC created which contains some 40 sub directories.
I have one input file in the below format.The input file resides in ABC directory.
Inputfile format;
subdirectoryname date
subdirectoryname1 date
subdirectoryname2 date
..
...
it is a normal text file.
Each subdirectory contains multiple files.
My 1X script will check for the input file if it finds the input file then it should trigger 2X script.
also it will check for the status of the 2X script.if it is running it should not trigger the script.
my 1X script will run for every five minutes.I set it as a cron job.
Now the problem is;
It is not processing all the subdirectories.
for example if the input file contains 5 entries i.e 5 subdirectory names then the script is processing only
3 subdirectories and existing. can you please help me to resolve the issue.

I need to run a script (from cron) that runs a second script.
What worries me is that second script, when run from bash, upon finishing doesn't return to bash unless I press the 'Enter' key.
I presume that's because last command in that script ends with &

dh_usrlocal
DH_USRLOCAL(1) Debhelper DH_USRLOCAL(1)
NAME
dh_usrlocal - migrate usr/local directories to maintainer scripts
SYNOPSIS
dh_usrlocal [debhelperoptions] [-n]
DESCRIPTION
dh_usrlocal is a debhelper program that can be used for building packages that will provide a subdirectory in /usr/local when installed.
It finds subdirectories of usr/local in the package build directory, and removes them, replacing them with maintainer script snippets
(unless -n is used) to create the directories at install time, and remove them when the package is removed, in a manner compliant with
Debian policy. These snippets are inserted into the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of
debhelper maintainer script snippets.
When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-targets, the directories in /usr/local will have ownership root:staff and
the mode will be 02775. These values have been chosen to comply with the recommendations of the Debian policy for directories in
/usr/local.
When Rules-Requires-Root has an effective value of binary-targets, the owners, groups and permissions will be preserved with one exception.
If the directory is owned by root:root, then ownership will be reset to root:staff and mode will be reset to 02775. This is useful, since
that is the group and mode policy recommends for directories in /usr/local.
OPTIONS
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
CONFORMS TO
Debian policy, version 2.2
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
