Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Error when executing script Post 303001629 by anaigini45 on Wednesday 9th of August 2017 06:24:47 AM

Thank you so much for all the comments and suggestions.

I have now managed to compile the whole script, but still needs a bit more tweaking as there are few more errors.

Part of my script does this :

Code:
new=1
for f in `find . -name '*.filtered' | sort -r`; do                                                                  
> eximstats -nr "$f" > "eximstats_day"$new"_"$eximBC01.txt";
> eximstats -xls -nr  "$f" > "eximstats_day"$new"_"BC01.xls";
> ((new++));
> done

This returns errors like this :

Code:
bash: eximstats_day1_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.7.filtered > eximstats_day1_BC01.xls: No such file or directory
bash: eximstats_day2_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.6.filtered > eximstats_day2_BC01.xls: No such file or directory
bash: eximstats_day3_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.5.filtered > eximstats_day3_BC01.xls: No such file or directory
bash: eximstats_day4_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.4.filtered > eximstats_day4_BC01.xls: No such file or directory
bash: eximstats_day5_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.3.filtered > eximstats_day5_BC01.xls: No such file or directory
bash: eximstats_day6_01082017.txt;
eximstats -xls -nr  ./mainlog.2.filtered > eximstats_day6_BC01.xls: No such file or directory

However, when I execute the code directly on the terminal, there is no error (without the for loop) :

Code:
# eximstats -nr  mainlog.7.filtered > eximstats_day1_01082017.txt
# eximstats -xls -nr  mainlog.7.filtered > eximstats_day1_01082017.xls

Is there something wrong with the syntax?

I found out that the error was variable substitution. I corrected the code like this, and it worked properly :

Code:
new=1
for f in `find . -name '*.filtered' | sort -r`; do
       eximstats -nr "$f" > eximstats_day"$new"_"$eximBC07".txt;
       eximstats -xls -nr  "$f" > eximstats_day"$new"_"$eximBC07".xls;
       ((new++));
done

However, I have another part of the script that has this line :

Code:
eximstats -merge eximstats_day*.txt > "eximstats.consolidated_$MONTH$YEAR.txt"

I did not put the "" for the $MONTH$YEAR, but it still produced the output I wanted. Why is this?
