You are doing something in your script directly or indirectly that does indeed require a tty, but it is not a read nor a write. Put some echo statement in your script "echo at point 1", "echo at point 2", etc until you see the statement that fails.
Thanks Perderabo for going over the question.
As the code exists in production and we cannot change code without lots of approvals.
Will like to elaborate the problem more clearly see if you can help.
We have a script say run_job.ksh which is executed from a scheduler.
This scripts calls a C executable, which itself invokes sort command.
The snippet of the code calling sort command is like this:
if same code we execute through a telnet session it succeeds while if we invoke the executable through scheduler we are thrown the error present in "if" condition i.e. Error sorting the input file
This is the sequence of error I receive in scheduler logs:
: Inappropriate ioctl for device

Hi,
We are running a perl script to upload some data using SQL* Loader. We pipe the data in a http request to SQL*Loader which loads the data to the database.

lsort
lsort(n) Tcl Built-In Commands lsort(n)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
lsort - Sort the elements of a list
SYNOPSIS
lsort ?options? list
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This command sorts the elements of list, returning a new list in sorted order. The implementation of the lsort command uses the merge-sort
algorithm which is a stable sort that has O(n log n) performance characteristics.
By default ASCII sorting is used with the result returned in increasing order. However, any of the following options may be specified
before list to control the sorting process (unique abbreviations are accepted):
-ascii Use string comparison with Unicode code-point collation order (the name is for backward-compatability reasons.) This
is the default.
-dictionary Use dictionary-style comparison. This is the same as -ascii except (a) case is ignored except as a tie-breaker and (b)
if two strings contain embedded numbers, the numbers compare as integers, not characters. For example, in -dictionary
mode, bigBoy sorts between bigbang and bigboy, and x10y sorts between x9y and x11y.
-integer Convert list elements to integers and use integer comparison.
-real Convert list elements to floating-point values and use floating comparison.
-command command Use command as a comparison command. To compare two elements, evaluate a Tcl script consisting of command with the two
elements appended as additional arguments. The script should return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than
zero if the first element is to be considered less than, equal to, or greater than the second, respectively.
-increasing Sort the list in increasing order (``smallest'' items first). This is the default.
-decreasing Sort the list in decreasing order (``largest'' items first).
-index index If this option is specified, each of the elements of list must itself be a proper Tcl sublist. Instead of sorting
based on whole sublists, lsort will extract the index'th element from each sublist and sort based on the given element.
The keyword end is allowed for the index to sort on the last sublist element, and end-index sorts on a sublist element |
offset from the end. For example,
lsort -integer -index 1 {{First 24} {Second 18} {Third 30}}
returns {Second 18} {First 24} {Third 30}, and |
lsort -index end-1 {{a 1 e i} {b 2 3 f g} {c 4 5 6 d h}} |
returns {c 4 5 6 d h} {a 1 e i} {b 2 3 f g}. This option is much more efficient than using -command to achieve the
same effect.
-unique If this option is specified, then only the last set of duplicate elements found in the list will be retained. Note
that duplicates are determined relative to the comparison used in the sort. Thus if -index 0 is used, {1 a} and {1 b}
would be considered duplicates and only the second element, {1 b}, would be retained.
NOTES
The options to lsort only control what sort of comparison is used, and do not necessarily constrain what the values themselves actually
are. This distinction is only noticeable when the list to be sorted has fewer than two elements.
The lsort command is reentrant, meaning it is safe to use as part of the implementation of a command used in the -command option.
EXAMPLES
Sorting a list using ASCII sorting:
% lsort {a10 B2 b1 a1 a2}
B2 a1 a10 a2 b1
Sorting a list using Dictionary sorting:
% lsort -dictionary {a10 B2 b1 a1 a2}
a1 a2 a10 b1 B2
Sorting lists of integers:
% lsort -integer {5 3 1 2 11 4}
1 2 3 4 5 11
% lsort -integer {1 2 0x5 7 0 4 -1}
-1 0 1 2 4 0x5 7
Sorting lists of floating-point numbers:
% lsort -real {5 3 1 2 11 4}
1 2 3 4 5 11
% lsort -real {.5 0.07e1 0.4 6e-1}
0.4 .5 6e-1 0.07e1
Sorting using indices:
% # Note the space character before the c
% lsort {{a 5} { c 3} {b 4} {e 1} {d 2}}
{ c 3} {a 5} {b 4} {d 2} {e 1}
% lsort -index 0 {{a 5} { c 3} {b 4} {e 1} {d 2}}
{a 5} {b 4} { c 3} {d 2} {e 1}
% lsort -index 1 {{a 5} { c 3} {b 4} {e 1} {d 2}}
{e 1} {d 2} { c 3} {b 4} {a 5}
Stripping duplicate values using sorting:
% lsort -unique {a b c a b c a b c}
a b c
More complex sorting using a comparison function:
% proc compare {a b} {
set a0 [lindex $a 0]
set b0 [lindex $b 0]
if {$a0 < $b0} {
return -1
} elseif {$a0 > $b0} {
return 1
}
return [string compare [lindex $a 1] [lindex $b 1]]
}
% lsort -command compare
{{3 apple} {0x2 carrot} {1 dingo} {2 banana}}
{1 dingo} {2 banana} {0x2 carrot} {3 apple}
