Calling a script from another
Hi,

I have 2 scripts, one is the .profile and the other is a SID selector for Oracle Databases.

But when I call one from the other, even though it seems to have worked, it doesn't.

Can anyone help??


******************* .profile**********************

#!/bin/ksh


. /data/u/amin/oracle/oraenv.sh





***************** . oraenv.sh (SID Selector)
#!/bin/ksh


# Environment Variables for Oracle 92

export ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/92
# PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin:$PATH
export ORACLE_OWNER=oracle
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/openwin/lib:/usr/dt/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH


# Oracle Environment SID Selector


# Script to select From the Multiple SIDs on this machine
echo
echo
echo "The following SIDs reside on this Box"
cat /var/opt/oracle/oratab | awk -F: '{print $1}' | grep -v "#"
ORAENV_ASK=YES
/usr/local/bin/oraenv


Can anyone help??

Ta.

atf-sh

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME

     atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs

SYNOPSIS

     atf-sh script

DESCRIPTION

     atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library.

     atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL.  atf-sh executes the inter-
     preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script.  You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not
     use any non-standard extensions.

     The following options are available:

     -s shell	  Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL.

ENVIRONMENT

     ATF_LIBEXECDIR    Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located.  Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes.
     ATF_PKGDATADIR    Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located.  Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes.
     ATF_SHELL	       Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts.  Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a
		       specific interpreter.

EXAMPLES

     Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with:

	   #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh

     Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh.  Instead, you have to hardcode
     the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter:

	   #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash

ENVIRONMENT

     ATF_SHELL	  Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts.
