Operating Systems HP-UX Suppressing errors from command output Post 303017223 by gull04 on Friday 11th of May 2018 04:10:31 AM

Hi,

The script expects to see the resolve.conf file, so is correctly identifying the missing file - touching the file removes the error.

There are a number of options, the simplest is probably to do;

Code:
touch /etc/resolv.conf
chmod 440 /etc/resolv.conf

Alternatively you could send the stderr to /dev/null

Your final option would be to modify the script and put the offendin part of the script inside a test condition - running if the resolv.conf file exists.

Regards

RESOLV.CONF(5)							File Formats Manual						    RESOLV.CONF(5)

NAME
resolv.conf - Domain Name System resolver configuration SYNOPSIS
/etc/resolv.conf DESCRIPTION
The /etc/resolv.conf is used to configure how the host will use the Domain Name System to resolve hostnames to IP addresses. It may con- tain these two lines: nameserver IP-address domain domain-name The nameserver entry tells the IP address of the host to use for DNS queries. If it is set to 127.0.0.1 (which is the default) then the local name daemon is used that may use the /etc/hosts database to translate host names. You normally only need a nameserver entry if the name server is at the other side of a router. The default nonamed name server can't look beyond the local network. The domain entry tells the default domain to use for unqualified hostnames. This entry is usually not given in which case the domain of the local host is used. The long version of this story can be found in resolver(5). FILES
/etc/resolv.conf DNS resolver configuration file. SEE ALSO
