Step 1: verify that the $awkcmd variable has the right data in it. i.e.,
should show nawk.
Then verify that nawk is in the PATH variable of the process running the code:
Do that before playing with the awk code itself.
The awk code is clunky but looks, eh.., reasonable maybe, for nawk. If you get no output then you must rule out or find an error message about nawk not found, or if $awkcmd is not assigned you will get a shell error because the shell will try to run the awk code which is gibberish to the shell.
You need to start looking from the very first line, IMO. Keep ruling out problems as you go forward. Do not simply jump ahead 30 lines.

Hi,
I have a scenario where in, I have a file named abc.txt.
I extract the file names from it using.
awk '/dbf$/{print $NF}' abc.txt
/u01/oradata/omc/systab/omcdef.dbf

Hi,
I've searched this site and the wider web and have not found anything (that I can understand..) that helps me.
I've used shell commands in awk fine in the past, the difference is that I want to pass the shell command a field variable within awk from the current input.
A simple example... (3 Replies)
I want to create an awk script that performs different things on different files.
For example, for files with extension .ry I might do something, but for .xt I do something else, and another things on .zc files.
How can I do this in one awk script? (3 Replies)
Hey guys i want to use shell commands like ls, find, cd and more with in awk statements with inputs from the awk variables.

Hi,
Can someone please guide me how to combine the following two awk calls in one?
I noticed that it is very often situation for me, and I think that it can be replaced with one awk call.
The question is more general, not the exact one.
echo "A B C/D" | awk '{print $3}' | awk -F/ '{print... (4 Replies)

ucblinks
ucblinks(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands ucblinks(1B)NAME
ucblinks - adds /dev entries to give SunOS 4.x compatible names to SunOS 5.x devices
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/ucblinks [-e rulebase] [-r rootdir]
DESCRIPTION
ucblinks creates symbolic links under the /dev directory for devices whose SunOS 5.x names differ from their SunOS 4.x names. Where possi-
ble, these symbolic links point to the device's SunOS 5.x name rather than to the actual /devices entry.
ucblinks does not remove unneeded compatibility links; these must be removed by hand.
ucblinks should be called each time the system is reconfiguration-booted, after any new SunOS 5.x links that are needed have been created,
since the reconfiguration may have resulted in more compatibility names being needed.
In releases prior to SunOS 5.4, ucblinks used a nawk rule-base to construct the SunOS 4.x compatible names. ucblinks no longer uses nawk
for the default operation, although nawk rule-bases can still be specifed with the -e option. The nawk rule-base equivalent to the SunOS
5.4 default operation can be found in /usr/ucblib/ucblinks.awk.
OPTIONS -e rulebase Specify rulebase as the file containing nawk(1) pattern-action statements.
-r rootdir Specify rootdir as the directory under which dev and devices will be found, rather than the standard root directory /.
