I have the following script as shown below where I cat a file and then also tee the output to a file as I have to email the execution of the process to users at the end of the script:
The problem with above command is when there is no incoming.dat file present, the script isnt failing. When incoming.dat file isnt present, the cat command fails but since it able to successfully direct the output to tee, it never goes to "exit 1" part of the if statement. I cant remove the tee part as I need to print the command output in the stdout as well as direct it to a file as I have to email it to users. How can I fix this issue?
Thanks for any inputs,
Carl
