Bug unable to read a parameter

All,

on command prompt when i am testing I am able to get the value of 'msgtime' parameter but in the script I get a space value for it . Please help ..

following is the code snippet -

Code:
grep "Component Manager stopped" msgtime.txt | while read line
                                                 do
                                                     awk '{ print $2}' | sed 's/://g' | read msgtime
                             echo $msgtime  # does not display msgtime instead gives space
                                                done

msgtime.txt looks like this -

Code:
pe.txt.2012-03-28:2012/03/28 11:51:02 [RMI TCP Connection(147)-10.87.130.42] INFO  filenet.vw.ComponentIntegrator  Component Manager stopped.

Please help.
