Script to send email if count is >1
i have below code to count number of rows in file1.txt, if the row count is more than one then i have sending an email along with file1.txt attached and fail the process(do nothing if count is <=1),
if I test individually count part works good but when i include the email part its not working, couldn't figure out the issue, is the approach correct or is there a better way for this approach




Code:
#! /usr/bin/kshAttachment = file1.txtNumber_of_lines = wc -l < file1.txtEmail_Id=abc@email.comif [ $Number_of_lines > 1 ] then (echo "Find Attached the Error File which list the Error Rows from Invalid Procedure codes";uuencode $Attachment Invalid_Procedure_Codes.txt) | mail -s "[ERROR] : Invalid Procedure codes " $Email_Idfi

This works...
Code:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
Attachment=file1.txt
Number_of_lines=$(wc -l file1.txt | awk '{print $1}')
echo ${Number_of_lines}
Email_Id="user@somehost.com"

if (( ${Number_of_lines} > 1 ))
then
 (echo "Find Attached the Error File which list the Error Rows from Invalid Procedure codes";uuencode  ${Attachment} ${Attachment}) | mailx -s "[ERROR] : Invalid Procedure codes " ${Email_Id}
fi

If you're doing command | command | awk, you might as well throw out all the stuff before it and just use awk.

Code:
LINES=$(awk 'END { print NR }' file1.txt)

Or this
Code:
#!/bin/sh
Attachment=file1.txt
Number_of_lines=`wc -l < $Attachment` 
Email_Id=abc@email.com
if [ $Number_of_lines -gt 1 ]
then
(
echo "Find Attached the Error File which lists the Error Rows from Invalid Procedure codes"
uuencode $Attachment Invalid_Procedure_Codes.txt
) |
mail -s "[ERROR] : Invalid Procedure codes" $Email_Id
fi
