We need to know exactly what Operating System you have and the exact version (with all decimal places).
Code:
uname -a
(Blot anything confidential).
I am not sure if this is helpful:
Code:
mario8@yukawa (~) >uname -a
Linux yukawa 2.6.18-6-k7 #1 SMP Fri Feb 19 23:58:00 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
But I know, that I am using Debian.

Between this post and your previous post about the same script it would appear that the "bash" Shell is keeling over with insufficient environment space and generating spurious or blank command parameters.
Btw. Googling the "mkdir" error message only comes up with Gentoo Linux.
There is excessive repetiton of parameter substitution.
Just saving the common factor for an iteration ready for the next time it is required will save over 400,000 shell parameter substitutions.
e.g.
Code:
INSTANCE="A$A-B$B-C$C-D$D-E$E-F$F-G$G-H$H"
I am not sure if I understood you correct. Are you saying that the script is not working because it has to change too many parameters in one turn and all together it has too many parameters?
And also if you have the time could you provide a link on how to use the command instance exactly, because Googling for it gives me wrong shells and wrong instances .
Thanks in advance,
Mario
Edit: I just cut the script into little pieces and it seems everything works until the shell has to use "source" command.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
template=$1
for values in {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}; do
set $values
A=$1; B=$2; C=$3; D=$4; E=$5; F=$6; G=$7; H=$8
mkdir "A$A-B$B-C$C-D$D-E$E-F$F-G$G-H$H"
done
These kind of small scripts worked fine.
Even this worked ok:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
template=$1
for values in {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}\ {45,165,285}; do
set $values
A=$1; B=$2; C=$3; D=$4; E=$5; F=$6; G=$7; H=$8
cd ./A$A-B$B-C$C-D$D-E$E-F$F-G$G-H$H
babel -igzmat "A$A-B$B-C$C-D$D-E$E-F$F-G$G-H$H" -oxyz coord.xyz
cd /yki/mount/glauber_home/mario8/Desktop/magister/arvutused/4/
done
When it had to deal with the Turbomole program (tm510) then it worked good at first, but at some point it started to give the "argument list too long" error:
Code:
x2t.sh: line 9: /usr/yki/science/turbomole-5.10/scripts/x2t: Argument list too long
/usr/yki/lib/use/tm510: line 30: /bin/hostname: Argument list too long
/usr/yki/science/turbomole-5.10/Config_turbo_env: line 19: /usr/yki/science/turbomole-5.10/scripts/sysname: Argument list too long
Config_turbo_env: TURBOMOLE script sysname failed!
So I am really confused, because it seems to work at first, but fails at some point. And I removed most of the variables. And I can't understand why the mkdir or babel command worked well and x2t wont work.
