It might be better to redirect /home/user/prod_work/xyz.sh to /dev/null, to fix it on the remote side, instead of the local side. Less round-trip, and saves you one stream if you ever need it later.

Other people might have the same question I do, which makes it difficult to suggestion a solution. I'm not sure what "fully loaded" means?

If you just want to know if the website is up and...

Try read -p "Please enter the name of the application: " DIRTOCREATE

while read line

Using shell builtins:
#!/bin/bash

while read line
do
printf "%s\n" "$line"
if [[ "$line" =~ "ingredient" ]]
then
[ -z "$flag" ] && cat items.txt

Just a little addition (and using what just learned) :

[ ! -e "$DIRTOCREATE" ] && mkdir -p "$DIRTOCREATE"

Or:
[ -e "$DIRTOCREATE" ] || mkdir -p -- "$DIRTOCREATE"

if grep -q shyam ${INFILE}
then
sed -e "s/shyam/ram/g"...

dt=$(echo "$(date --date="1 month ago" +%Y%m)")
./createstructure $(echo $dt)

To expand on what wisecracker said: whenever you write a script - especially one which depends on user input - you should strive to have an answer to every problem that might happen. The script does...

Welcome to the forums...

Try :

#! /bin/bash
echo "Enter name of dir":
read filename
mkdir -p $filename

You might want to use:
if [ -e "$drawer" ]instead of:
if [ -d "$drawer" ]
The -e will evaluate to true if any file (whether or not it is a directory) already exists with the given name. A call to...

"if" is obvious.
"[" means the same as the command "test" as in here:-
