Not sure why you should need cron for your task, but this should run under it as well. Make sure it is run by bash! Replace your if construct with

Code:

if [ $(ls ${error_dir} | grep -c "\.err$") -eq 0 ]
  then  echo "No Error Files Found $dt" >>$log
  #           exit
  else  while   ((++CNT <= 5))
          do    echo "The below files have been resbumitted. " >> $log
                ls -ltr ${error_dir}*err >>$log
                /bin/java -cp "./TIPError.jar:./TIP31.jar:./TIP31msg_en_US.jar" ResubmitErrors -AuxprpawdRobin01 -P20904 >>$log
                [ $(ls ${error_dir} | grep -c "\.err$") -eq 0 ] && break
                sleep 5
          done
        if (( CNT == 5))
          then  mail "resumitted 5 times please notify vendor"
          else  echo "error corrected after $CNT retries"
        fi
        unset CNT
fi

Be aware that you need to check for the error files in every loop. Check the mail stuff and adapt to your system.

Retry upon FTP failure

I am using the following code in a C Shell script to transfer files to a remote server: ftp -n logxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx.com <<DO_FTP1 quote user $user_name quote pass $password ascii put $js_file_name bin put $FinalZipFile quit DO_FTP1 This code works great except on those rare occasions...

If then else - Retry operation

I need to read a file line by line, then depending on the contents of each line, type in a code that will get written to an array. The problem I have is when I ask the user to confirm the input code, if it is wrong, how do i Return to ask again? Any thing I try increments the file to the next...

doveadm-log

DOVEADM-LOG(1)							      Dovecot							    DOVEADM-LOG(1)

NAME

       doveadm-log - Locate, test or reopen Dovecot's log files

SYNOPSIS

       doveadm [-Dv] log errors
       doveadm [-Dv] log find [directory]
       doveadm [-Dv] log reopen
       doveadm [-Dv] log test

DESCRIPTION

       The  doveadm  log commands are used to locate and reopen the log files of dovecot(1).  It's also possible to test the configured targets of
       the *log_path settings.

OPTIONS

       Global doveadm(1) options:

       -D     Enables verbosity and debug messages.

       -v     Enables verbosity, including progress counter.

COMMANDS

   log errors
       doveadm log errors

       The log errors command is used to show the last	- up to 1,000 - errors and warnings.  If no output is generated, no errors  have  occurred
       since the last start.

   log find
       doveadm log find [directory]

       The  log  find  command	is used to show the location of the log files, to which dovecot(1) sends its log messages.  If dovecot(1) logs its
       messages through syslogd(8) and doveadm(1) could not find any log files, you can specify the directory where your syslogd  writes  its  log
       files.

   log reopen
       doveadm log reopen

       This command causes doveadm to reopen all log files, configured in the log_path, info_log_path and debug_log_path settings.  These settings
       are configured in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf.
       This is for example useful after manually rotating the log files.

   log test
       doveadm log test

       This command causes doveadm to write the message "This is Dovecot's priority log (timestamp)" to the configured log files.  The used prior-
       ities are: debug, info, warning, error and fatal.

EXAMPLE

       This example shows how to locate the log files used by dovecot(1).

       doveadm log find
       Looking for log files from /var/log
       Debug: /var/log/dovecot.debug
       Info: /var/log/mail.log
       Warning: /var/log/mail.log
       Error: /var/log/mail.log
       Fatal: /var/log/mail.log

       Report  bugs,  including doveconf -n output, to the Dovecot Mailing List <dovecot@dovecot.org>.	Information about reporting bugs is avail-
       able at: http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html
