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..

mysqlbug

MYSQLBUG(1)						       MySQL Database System						       MYSQLBUG(1)

NAME

       mysqlbug - generate bug report

SYNOPSIS

       mysqlbug

DESCRIPTION

       This program enables you to generate a bug report and send it to Oracle Corporation. It is a shell script and runs on Unix.

       The normal way to report bugs is to visit http://bugs.mysql.com/, which is the address for our bugs database. This database is public and
       can be browsed and searched by anyone. If you log in to the system, you can enter new reports. If you have no Web access, you can generate
       a bug report by using the mysqlbug script.

       mysqlbug helps you generate a report by determining much of the following information automatically, but if something important is missing,
       please include it with your message.  mysqlbug can be found in the scripts directory (source distribution) and in the bin directory under
       your MySQL installation directory (binary distribution).

       Invoke mysqlbug without arguments:

	   shell> mysqlbug

       The script will place you in an editor with a copy of the report to be sent. Edit the lines near the beginning that indicate the nature of
       the problem. Then write the file to save your changes, quit the editor, and mysqlbug will send the report by email.
