Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Execution Problem with dispalying file content using menu driven script Post 302714423 by Don Cragun on Friday 12th of October 2012 07:18:23 AM

Run the commands:
Code:
id
ls -ld /root /root/script /root/script/device_info.txt /root/script/dest_path.txt /root/script/mail_alert.txt

and show us the results (both from stdout and from stderr). I'm guessing that:
  1. one or more of the files don't exist,
  2. you don't have read permission for one or more of these files, or
  3. you don't have search permission on the directories.

GO-SHOW-PATHS-TO-ROOT(1p)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 GO-SHOW-PATHS-TO-ROOT(1p)

NAME
go-show-paths-to-root.pl - shows all possible paths from a term to the top SYNOPSIS
go-show-paths-to-root.pl -id GO:0008021 ontology/gene_ontology.obo go-show-paths-to-root.pl -names -id GO:0008021 ontology/gene_ontology.obo DESCRIPTION
traverses DAG showing all paths (terms and intervening relationships) to the root This script is purely file based; it needs to parse the ontology each time Subsequent parses can be speeded up using the use_cache option If you wish to use the GO MySQL db, see the script go-db-show-paths-to-root.pl in the go-db-perl distribution ARGUMENTS
-e ERRFILE writes parse errors in XML - defaults to STDERR (there should be no parse errors in well formed files) -p FORMAT determines which parser to use; if left unspecified, will make a guess based on file suffix. See below for formats -use_cache If this switch is specified, then caching mode is turned on. With caching mode, the first time you parse a file, then an additional file will be exported in a special format that is fast to parse. This file will have the same filename as the original file, except it will have the ".cache" suffix. The next time you parse the file, this program will automatically check for the existence of the ".cache" file. If it exists, and is more recent than the file you specified, this is parsed instead. If it does not exist, it is rebuilt. DOCUMENTATION <http://www.godatabase.org/dev> perl v5.14.2 2010-05-12 GO-SHOW-PATHS-TO-ROOT(1p)
