Hi Methyl

When I run
Code:
     timestamp1=`gdate -d today  +%Y%m%d%H%M`
    timestamp2=`gdate -d today  +%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M`
    cat /home/it/capopt/APNRD/S10/er_data/er_data* > $timestamp1
    cut -d " " -f1,2,30 $timestamp1 | sed '/^$/d' > $timestamp2
    rm $timestamp1
    rm er_data*

it runs perfectly fine

When I run
Code:
cd /home/it/capopt/APNRD/S10/er_data
ftp -ni <<EOT
open "$1"
user hearne_r Dubliner1
cd /logs/er_data_log/ready
mget *er_data*
bye

it also works fine


however when combined as
Code:
more event_S10.sh
#!/usr/bin/sh

#set -x


cd /home/it/capopt/APNRD/S10/er_data
ftp -ni <<EOT
open "$1"
user hearne_r Dubliner1
cd /logs/er_data_log/ready
mget *er_data*
bye
EOT

    timestamp1=`gdate -d today  +%Y%m%d%H%M`
    timestamp2=`gdate -d today  +%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M`
    cat /home/it/capopt/APNRD/S10/er_data/er_data* > $timestamp1
    cut -d " " -f1,2,30 $timestamp1 | sed '/^$/d' > $timestamp2
    rm $timestamp1
    rm er_data*
#EOT
#kill $!
#exit 0

it only does the ftp bit and retreves the files. It does not parse and aggregate as per teh cat, cut and sed commands
