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

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,

working on a c sell script
I think I understand the concept of it, which is:
filename >> file.txt (to appaend)
or filename | tee -a file.txt (to append)
The problem is that my shell script is used with several parameters, and these commands don't seem to work with just filename. They... (2 Replies)

BZEXE(1) General Commands Manual BZEXE(1)NAME
bzexe - compress executable files in place
SYNOPSIS
bzexe [ name ... ]
DESCRIPTION
The bzexe utility allows you to compress executables in place and have them automatically uncompress and execute when you run them (at a
penalty in performance). For example if you execute ``bzexe /bin/cat'' it will create the following two files:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 9644 Feb 11 11:16 /bin/cat
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 24576 Nov 23 13:21 /bin/cat~
/bin/cat~ is the original file and /bin/cat is the self-uncompressing executable file. You can remove /bin/cat~ once you are sure that
/bin/cat works properly.
This utility is most useful on systems with very small disks.
OPTIONS -d Decompress the given executables instead of compressing them.
SEE ALSO bzip2(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zcmp(1), zforce(1)CAVEATS
The compressed executable is a shell script. This may create some security holes. In particular, the compressed executable relies on the
PATH environment variable to find gzip and some other utilities (tail, chmod, ln, sleep).
BUGS
bzexe attempts to retain the original file attributes on the compressed executable, but you may have to fix them manually in some cases,
using chmod or chown.
