SQL scripts not running, possible timeout issue?
I am a novice Unix scripter and need a little advice/help on a script I've written that's causing some problems. We are using Solaris 9 on a Sun box and the script is invoked with the korn shell. I have a two-part question: I wrote a shell script that calls and executes 3 separate sql scripts, each spooling a text file. The first sql script calls an Oracle procedure that takes over 2 hours to run and the other 2 sql scripts take about 15 minutes each (when running them individually).

My first question is that after the procedure is finished (from the first sql script), I do not see any screen output, indicating when the job is complete. I cannot scroll to see the output but rather get a message saying my session is timed out. Is there a command/process I could type to see all the output if a job is timed out? We do have an OS timeout and firewall timeout process but this should occur only after the job is completed.

My other question ties in with the first. The other 2 sql jobs do not run after the 1st is complete. In each sql script, I am exiting the Oracle session and the shell script invokes each sql session one after the other. However, I cannot view the output to see where the process stopped and in looking in the destination directory for which the files should be spooled to, I only see the 1st sql script's file present. I then commented out the 1st sql script and ran the shell and the 2 other files appeared. I use the same exiting logic in each sql script. It appears that the timeout causes the other 2 scripts to not perform but I'm not sure.

I hope this makes sense. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Eric
