Unable to attach a .txt file or .log file to mail and mailx command
Hi,
I am trying to attach a .log file or .txt file to mail command to send an email once my ksh script executed. I am unable to use mutt command as it has been not installed and i am not supposed to install it. I have tried many ways by googling which has not helped me to succeed.

Here is my requirement,I need to run some 10 sql queries and result need to send in the email via attachment. I have Check.ksh and i am running this by using nohup command.

Code:
nohup Check.ksh > Valid_Check.log 2>&1 &

In Check.ksh

Code:
typeset var TO="name@domain.com";
typeset var SUB="Report";
typeset var BODY="Check Completed";
typeset var ATTACHMENT=${FILE_PATH}/Valid_Check.log

if [ -f "${ATTACHMENT}" ]; then 
echo "Log file exist";
else
echo "No Log File";
fi

uuencode Valid_Check.log Valid_Check.log | mail -s "${SUB}" "${BODY}" ${TO}

and tried the below as well
Code:
#mailx -s "${SUB}" "${TO}" "${BODY}" < ${FILE_PATH}/Valid_Check.log

Code:
#cat ${FILE_PATH}/Valid_Check.log | mailx -s "${SUBJECT}" "${TO}" "${BODY}";

Code:
uuencode Valid_Check.log Valid_Check.log | mail -s "${SUB}" "${BODY}" ${TO}

But getting an error like "Valid... User unknown"
Any inputs would be helpful or any other simple/easy approach?

Thanks,

IRSEND(1)								FSF								 IRSEND(1)

NAME

       irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands

SYNOPSIS

       irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...]

DESCRIPTION

       Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such
       as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc.

       DIRECTIVE can be:
	  SEND_ONCE	    - send CODE [CODE ...] once
	  SEND_START	    - start repeating CODE
	  SEND_STOP	    - stop repeating CODE
	  LIST		    - list configured remote items
	  SET_TRANSMITTERS  - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...]
	  SIMULATE	    - simulate IR event

       REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file.

       CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file.

       NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device.

       For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty:

	  LIST	 ""    ""   - list all configured remote names
	  LIST REMOTE  ""   - list all codes of REMOTE
	  LIST REMOTE CODE  - list only CODE of REMOTE

       The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd.

       -h --help
	      display usage summary

       -v --version
	      display version

       -d --device
	      use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd]

       -a --address=host[:port]
	      connect to lircd at this address

       -# --count=n
	      send command n times

EXAMPLES

	  irsend LIST DenonTuner ""
	  irsend SEND_ONCE  DenonTuner PROG-SCAN
	  irsend SEND_ONCE  OnkyoAmpli VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP
	  irsend SEND_START OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN ; sleep 3
	  irsend SEND_STOP  OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN
	  irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
	  irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1 3 4
	  irsend SIMULATE "0000000000000476 00 OK TECHNISAT_ST3004S"

FILES

       /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
	      Default lircd configuration file.  It should contain all the remotes, their infra-red codes and the corresponding timing	and  wave-
	      form details.

DIAGNOSTICS

       If lircd is not running (or /var/run/lirc/lircd lacks write permissions) irsend aborts with the following diagnostics:
       "irsend: could not connect to socket"
       "irsend: Connection refused" (or "Permission denied").

SEE ALSO

       The documentation for lirc is maintained as html pages. They are located under html/ in the documentation directory.
