Hi all. I am trying to use backticks in Perl to put STDERR into a string. The code is...
If it comes up with an error, then it will return "ReadKey not installed", but if it comes up with no output whatsoever, then it will return "ReadKey installed". That's what it's supposed to do anyway...
I've tried putting 2>&1 at the end to turn STDERR into STDOUT but no dice...
How can I redirect and append stdout and stderr to a file when using cron? Here is my crontab file:
*/5 * * * * /dir/php /dir/process_fns.php >>& /dir/dump.txt
Cron gives me an 'unexpected character found in line' when trying to add my crontab file.
Regards,
Zach Curtis

We are running HP UNIX 11.0, and a patch applied 6 months ago. Ever since the patch, any scripts that run as script_name 1>&2 will write all the output to our /etc/cmcluster/package_name/package_cntl.log which is owned by root
(the permission of the log file is -rwxr----- root sys)

In bash, I need to send the STDOUT and STDERR from a command to one file, and then just STDERR to another file. Doing one or the other using redirects is easy, but trying to do both at once is a bit tricky. Anyone have any ideas? (9 Replies)

I have been doing this:
make xyz &> xyz.log &; tail -f xyz.log
The problem with this is that you never can ge sure when "make xyz" is done.
How can I pipe both stderr and stdout into tee so both stderr and stdout are copied both to the display and to the log file?
Thanks,

Can somebody explain to me why the diff output is not going to stderr?
Yet when I issue a diff from the command line the return code is -ne 1.

Is there away I can force the difff to write to stderr USING THE CURRENT
template. If possible, I... (5 Replies)
I originally wrote my script using the korn shell and had to port it to bash on a another server. My script is working find for backing up but noticed that now after the move, I am not getting any output to my log files.
Using Korn shell, this worked for me for some odd reason. This was sending... (2 Replies)

App::Cmd::Tester::CaptureExternal(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation App::Cmd::Tester::CaptureExternal(3pm)NAME
App::Cmd::Tester::CaptureExternal - Extends App::Cmd::Tester to capture from external subprograms
VERSION
version 0.318
SYNOPSIS
use Test::More tests => 4;
use App::Cmd::Tester::CaptureExternal;
use YourApp;
my $result = test_app(YourApp => [ qw(command --opt value) ]);
like($result->stdout, qr/expected output/, 'printed what we expected');
is($result->stderr, '', 'nothing sent to sderr');
ok($result->output, "STDOUT concatenated with STDERR");
DESCRIPTION
App::Cmd::Tester provides a useful scaffold for testing applications, but it is unable to capture output generated from any external
subprograms that are invoked from the application.
This subclass uses an alternate mechanism for capturing output (Capture::Tiny) that does capture from external programs, with one major
limitation.
It is not possible to capture externally from both STDOUT and STDERR while also having appropriately interleaved combined output.
Therefore, the "output" from this subclass simply concatenates the two.
You can still use "output" for testing if there is any output at all or for testing if something appeared in either output stream, but you
can't rely on the ordering being correct between lines to STDOUT and lines to STDERR.
