Hello,
I am running a shell script on AIX 6.1. The script calls ksh to run. ksh is also the login shell for the account under which I am running this script, but for convenience I always change to the bash shell via "exec bash" after I "su" to the account.
The script redirects stdout and stderr to a file via exec, then builds a report via a bunch of "echo" and "awk" commands, and then finally reconnects to stdout and stderr and emails the report:
I run into difficulties when I try to run this script (archcmp.sh) in the background via "./archcmp.sh &" . I can do so, and the script does run, but as soon as I type anything at the terminal (like an 'ls -l' on the report file in /tmp) the script stops and I cannot resume it. I see the same behavior whether or not I switch from the ksh login shell to bash before running the report:
It will never write anything more to the report file.
I find that I can get my program to behave the way that it should (or, at least, the way that I would like it to) if I change I redirecting 'exec' command to redirect all three of the standard file handles, as follows:
But this should be unnecessary, shouldn't it? When I place a command into the background via '<commandname> &' , it should be unconditionally dissociated from the terminal. Is this a bug in ksh? Is there some other way to get the background process to actually resume?
Here is my problem. I don't know make this redirection thing work. The output file (called output.c) looks like this
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int k;
int m;
print f("%d\n", k);
printf("%d\n", m);
return 0;
}
the input file(called input.c) is this
#include<stdio.h>

Hello Experts,
