Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I have a small basic script encryption.sh as shown below. All I am trying to do is to encrypt a file which is passed through the script.
It works fine when I execute this script directly from command line via putty or telnet but it does not work when I call this script in an application(informatica) and run it from there. The script is running fine when executed via an application but it is not performing the encryption part.

Script: encryption.sh

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
FILEDIR="/test/INT/targetdata"
FILENAME="/test/INT/targetdata/test_20100129"
 
# Encryption Key
KEYNAME="test"
 
cd $FILEDIR
/opt/iexpress/gnupg/bin/gpg -e -r $KEYNAME $ FILENAME

This part works when I execute the encryption.sh script directly from command line but does not work when I run this script through an application(though it executes fine from application but does not perform the encryption process.)


This is what I get when I run it through command line it gives some warning but encrypts the file successfully. Unix admin says we can ignore the warning.

Code:

/test> encryption.sh
gpg: WARNING: using insecure memory!
gpg: please see http://www.gnupg.org/faq.html for more information

Please advice.

Thanks

can you log the output of stderr when the program runs it? that may be useful.

I tried writing the above script to a log something like below. But it generates a 0 byte log file and does not write anything to it.

cd $FILEDIR
/opt/iexpress/gnupg/bin/gpg -e -r $KEYNAME $ FILENAME >> test.log

Thanks

That's logging stdout, not stderr. At least we've proved its actually reaching that line though! Try 2>>.
