Since you are not understanding my posts, I will let someone else help you.
I understood you, you said when we run the su command with "-" you are saying it's will load the bin's profile but in my case it's not loading the bin's profile it's taking the root's environment variables only
First, identify the path that bin is using for home. Then, ensure that there is a .profile for bin:
Code:
ls -la /path_to_bin's_home_directory/bin
Then, write this script to see how the environment is changed using the ". /path/.profile" to change your environment.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/env > /tmp/default.environmentOutput
# This is where you will source the profile for your user
. /path_to_bin's_home_directory/bin/.profile
/usr/bin/env > /tmp/bin.environmentOutput
EDIT: Run using this command:
Code:
su - bin -c "/path_to_your_script/envCheck.sh"
/EDIT
This will create two files in /tmp
The first will show you the current environment variables.
The second will show you the NEW environment variables when you source the profile.
Test that - if you see a difference between the two files in /tmp, then you will see what the previous poster's are recommending. If you do not, then there is likely something wrong with the profile that you are sourcing - or you may be sourcing the wrong one.

I am writing a bash script to run test some scripts.
The names scripts of the scripts to tests are stored in an array.

I need to run a script (from cron) that runs a second script.
What worries me is that second script, when run from bash, upon finishing doesn't return to bash unless I press the 'Enter' key.
I presume that's because last command in that script ends with &
Could that be a problem for cron?... (2 Replies)

I would like to run two scripts using cron one immediately after the other. Is it enough to put them one after another in the cron file to run at the same time, or will this cause them to run concurrently? (4 Replies)
