$ ./createHAqmgr.ksh
ksh: ./createHAqmgr.ksh: No such file or directory
$

but this file definitely exists, as shown in the ls

another ksh (kshHelloWorld) can be sourced and run successfully.

And if you say

Code:
ls -l createHAqmgr.ksh

?

What does the "shebang" look like?
Code:
$ ls -l Test
-rwxr-xr-x  1 scottn staff  31 11 Feb 00:13 Test

$ cat Test
#!/user/bin/k-ess-h
echo hello

$ ./Test
-ksh: ./Test: not found

Please post the output from these two commands which are designed to find files with strange filenames:

Code:
ls -lab

ls -la | sed -n l

shebang = #!bin/ksh

$ ls -l createHAqmgr.ksh
-rwxrwxrwx 1 ivanachu users 4979 Feb 10 22:42 createHAqmgr.ksh
$
I don't understand. The shebang in this file is the same as the shebang in the kshHelloWorld which runs ok. I guess I just don't understand sourcing.

What do you get if you run the script with

Code:
ksh -x ./createHAqmgr.ksh

# 6  
Old 02-10-2010
running the script with
ksh -x ./createHAqmgr.ksh

and the script runs! what is going on?

Your shebang is wrong...

Code:
#!bin/ksh

should be

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

Running the script as
Code:
ksh script.ksh

overrides the shebang, and as that works, suggest the shebang is wrong.
