Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting [Solved] Writing output to the console Post 302827275 by pat0181 on Friday 28th of June 2013 11:36:37 AM

The command "echo "$result doesnot match with the host file" | tee -a InputHostsFileErrors.txt" only works if you want the information displayed on the terminal you are using. To display it on the console try:
Code:
echo "$result doesnot match with the host file" | tee -a InputHostsFileErrors.txt > /dev/console 2>&1

Sorry previous post was a little incorrect. While it would work it wouldn't capture and log STDERR correctly. Try this:
Code:
echo "$result doesnot match with the host file"  2>&1 | tee -a InputHostsFileErrors.txt > /dev/console
