Hi Scrutinizer, thanks for your advise. I amended the script but its still not working
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# YYYY MM DD HH MM SS
# perl autosplits the string and uses timelocal to return
# the number of seconds from the Epoch
# No error checking!
function seconds_from_epoch {
echo $*| perl -MTime::Local -ane '
my $epochseconds = timegm($F[5], $F[4], $F[3], $F[2], $F[1], $F[0]);
print "$epochseconds\n"; '
}
# parse file s32adm_bash_history date and time
set -- $(ls -l s12adm_history)
fdate=$6
ftime=$7
# parse the year, month, and day
set -- $(IFS="-"; echo $fdate)
fyear=$0
fmonth=$1
fday=$2
# parse the hours and minutes
set -- $(IFS=":"; echo $ftime)
fhour=$3
fmin=$4
fsecs=$5
totsecs=$($fsecs $fmin $fhour $fday $fmonth $fyear)
echo $totsecs
I am getting this error now
Code:
[root@H99A100 user_history]# ./test

time
TIME(2) Linux Programmer's Manual TIME(2)NAME
time - get time in seconds
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
time_t time(time_t *t);
DESCRIPTION
time() returns the time as the number of seconds since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC).
If t is non-NULL, the return value is also stored in the memory pointed to by t.
RETURN VALUE
On success, the value of time in seconds since the Epoch is returned. On error, ((time_t) -1) is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EFAULT t points outside your accessible address space.
CONFORMING TO
SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89, C99, POSIX.1-2001. POSIX does not specify any error conditions.
NOTES
POSIX.1 defines seconds since the Epoch using a formula that approximates the number of seconds between a specified time and the Epoch.
This formula takes account of the facts that all years that are evenly divisible by 4 are leap years, but years that are evenly divisible
by 100 are not leap years unless they are also evenly divisible by 400, in which case they are leap years. This value is not the same as
the actual number of seconds between the time and the Epoch, because of leap seconds and because system clocks are not required to be syn-
chronized to a standard reference. The intention is that the interpretation of seconds since the Epoch values be consistent; see
POSIX.1-2008 Rationale A.4.15 for further rationale.
