That's because the control would've gone to the "else" part of the script.

Code:

else
    echo "Socket State not found, please check access and content of ${LOGFILE}"
fi

No email is sent in that case.

When I run the script I get the message at the end of the script

"Socket State not found, please check access and content of (Value of $(LOGFILE))"
...
This could mean that the following two strings -

Code:
(1)  'Error: socket error'
(2)  'Socket connected'

are not present in your log file, due to which the "if" and "elif" conditions would be FALSE. Check your log file.

NAME
script-email - Amanda script to send email notifications DESCRIPTION
script-email is an Amanda script implementing the Script API. It should not be run by users directly. It sends a notification email to the addresses specified in the MAILTO property. PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control script-email's functionality. See amanda-scripts(7) for information on the Script API, script configuration. MAILTO List of email addresses that will receive an email on command execution. It is a multi-valued property: property "MAILTO" "amanda@domain.com" "sysadmin@domain.com" "amandauser@domain.com" EXAMPLE
In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on the server. The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to the email system unchanged. The script is then attached to a dumptype, which can then be specified for any DLEs which require notification. define script-tool pre-email { comment "email me before this DLE is backed up" plugin "script-email" execute-on pre-dle-backup execute-where server property "mailto" "amanda" } define dumptype user-tar-email { user-tar script "pre-email" } SEE ALSO
