okay, I have issues writing the script in the first place (like I said, new to scripting and crontab etc.. )

so far,

I made a wrapper script:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
## command for topdown report genration
for value in {164,174,59,78} ## more business_ids can be added in the future
do
   sh run_script.sh $value 
done

exit 0

this successfully runs and writes the output file in a different location
output164.out
output174.out
etc....

I tried to schedule it every 38 minute, for this I tried in crontab:

Code:

 
38 * * * * /complete/path/run_script.sh 2>&1 | tee /complete/output_files_path/* | mail -s "test_report" abc@xyz.com

note: like I mentioned earlier, the output files are many (4 for now), so I used * in the path...

as of now:
I end up with error

mail - blank
spool/mail/user ----- null, hope it's okay

tee: /complete_output_path/output/: ---- is a directory

I need:
All the files in the output directory to be send as attachments to email distribution lists
example: output1.out ----- email1
output2.out ----- email2

please let me know how to make it happen..

bundle

BUNDLE(1)						      General Commands Manual							 BUNDLE(1)

NAME

       bundle - collect files for distribution

SYNOPSIS

       bundle file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Bundle  writes  on  its	standard output a shell script for rc(1) or a Bourne shell which, when executed, will recreate the original files.
       Its main use is for distributing small numbers of text files by mail(1).

       Although less refined than standard archives from ar(1) or tar(1), a bundle file is self-documenting and complete;  little  preparation	is
       required on the receiving machine.

EXAMPLES

       bundle mkfile *.[ch] | mail kremvax!boris
	      Send  a  makefile  to Boris together with related and files.  Upon receiving the mail, Boris may save the file sans postmark, say in
	      gift/horse, then do

       cd gift; rc horse; mk

SOURCE

       /rc/bin/bundle

SEE ALSO

       ar(1), tar(1), mail(1)

BUGS

       Bundle will not create directories and is unsatisfactory for non-text files.
       Beware of gift horses.
