Its ( cd $dpdir/AWQM) giving error No such file or directory. I can assign "pwd" to variable and then change directory will work i believe. Is there any other way i can achieve this without assign any directory path?. Please suggest.
Thanks,
Mani
The 1st cd marked in red above already moved the script into the directory named by the expansion of the dpdir shell variable. The 2nd cd marked in red above will work if and only if dpdir expands to an absolute pathname. But, the definition of dpdir in this script is a relative pathname.
If you change the 2nd cd to just:
it should get you to where I would guess it was trying to go.

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mkdir
MKDIR(3) 1 MKDIR(3)mkdir - Makes directorySYNOPSIS
bool mkdir (string $pathname, [int $mode = 0777], [bool $recursive = false], [resource $context])
DESCRIPTION
Attempts to create the directory specified by pathname.
PARAMETERS
o $pathname
- The directory path.
o $mode
- The mode is 0777 by default, which means the widest possible access. For more information on modes, read the details on the
chmod(3) page.
Note
$mode is ignored on Windows.
Note that you probably want to specify the mode as an octal number, which means it should have a leading zero. The mode is also
modified by the current umask, which you can change using umask(3).
o $recursive
- Allows the creation of nested directories specified in the $pathname.
o $context
-
Note
Context support was added with PHP 5.0.0. For a description of contexts, refer to "Streams".
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
mkdir(3) example
<?php
mkdir("/path/to/my/dir", 0700);
?>
Example #2
mkdir(3) using the $recursive parameter
<?php
// Desired folder structure
$structure = './depth1/depth2/depth3/';
// To create the nested structure, the $recursive parameter
// to mkdir() must be specified.
if (!mkdir($structure, 0777, true)) {
die('Failed to create folders...');
}
// ...
?>
ERRORS /EXCEPTIONS
Emits an E_WARNING level error if the directory already exists.
Emits an E_WARNING level error if the relevant permissions prevent creating the directory.
NOTES
Note
When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the directory in which the script is operating has the same UID (owner) as the script
that is being executed.
