Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Invoke script within a script Post 67535 by mskarica on Wednesday 23rd of March 2005 08:42:19 PM

rebor's answer was on the money.

Its a script that is invoked upon the arrival of an email message, and processes some information. I would basically get an error message back where I sent the test email giving me errors that occured while the script tried to run.

I got one more question..........for today Smilie

Now I'm trying to invoke another script, but this script has parameters, and doesn't seem to work like the other script invokation, which didn't take any parameters. Maybe I need to double-check my code. But just in case, would i call the script the same way, without any quotes or anything?
Here is how I'm calling it at the moment:

/path/to/script $email_name $email_domain

Does this look right?

Thanks for your help.

NAME
sieveshell - remotely manipulate sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
sieveshell [--user=user] [--authname=authname] [--realm=realm] [--exec=script] server[:port] sieveshell --help DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress. The following commands are recognized: list list scripts on server. put <filename> upload script to server. get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout delete <name> delete script. activate <name> activate script. deactivate deactivate all scripts. OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials. -a authname, --authname=authname The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user). -r realm, --realm=realm The realm to attempt authentication in. -e script, --exec=script Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
