If I manually type the follow script in a command prompt, it will work but I am prompted for a password.

The following is an example of the script in a command prompt:

Code:

  cd  /sasem/sas92/sashome/sasfoundation/9.2/utilities/bin/
$ ./cleanwork /sasworks

I added the code to a shell script but I am getting the following error
message: sasworks cannot be found

Here is my code:

Code:

!#bin/bash
sasadm ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL

echo cleanwork='/usr/bin/sudo   /sasem/sas92/sashome/sasfoundation/9.2/utilities/bin/cleanwork /sasworks'


echo cleanwork94='/usr/bin/sudo   /sasem/sas94/sashome/sasfoundation/9.4/utilities/bin/cleanwork /sasworks'

./$cleanwork

././$cleanwork94
