Exit codes
I am trying to run this SH on Linux and getting error at IF condition.

I want to read the EXIT code and send the failure or success message.

Please help me on this. This worked when i was running on Solaris.


Code:
#!/bin/bash
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus abc/xyz@qwe @/home/test.sql 
if [ $? -ne 0 ] ; then
    mailx -s "FAILURE" mnk@yahoo.com < /dev/null
    exit 1
else
    mailx -s "$SUCCESS" mnk@yahoo.com < /dev/null


Thanks in advance

but this works when I run the following manually:

Code:
$ sqlplus abc/xyz@qwe @/home/test.sql

Thank you

so there is no issue with if as you said.


and it check whether both invokes the same sqlplus ?
and are you running both from the same login ? and do that kind of debugging to find out.
