New to korn shel1 and having an issue. The following is suppose to read the parameter values from files in a source directory and then pass them on to a log file in a different directory, The ArchiveTracker scripts is suppose to call the parameterreader script to exact the parameter values and pass them on to a log file.
But I keep getting the following when I run the script.
Code:
-bash: ./: is a directory
code
Code:
#/bin/ksh
#ArchiveTracker
SourceLocation='pwd'
TrackerLocation=~/Scripts/Test/Tracker
LOGFILE=$TrackerLocation/processing.log
rm -f $LOGFILE
touch $LOGFILE
for sfile in $SourceLocation/*
do
if [ ! -s "$SourceLocation/$file" ];
then
echo Step 2: Processing $file >> $LOGFILE
while read line < $file
do
PARNAME=`echo $line | awk -f "=" '{print $1}'`
PARVALUE`parameterreader $file $PARNAME`
echo file $PARNAME >> LOGFILE
done
sftp -p "$SourceLocation/$file $TargetLocation/$file"
ret_code=$?
if [$ret_code != 0]; then
printf "error : [%d] when executing command:" $ret_code
#exit $ret_code
else
echo Step 3: Writing $TrackerLocation/$file
touch "$TrackerLocation/$file"
fi
else
echo Step 2: $file previously processed
fi
done
it is hard to tell anything without way more info. Where - in which line - does the error occur? You say you're running ksh, but the error is from bash. What is PARVALUE in the first script supposed to be? Where is file set? And, if you intended to set a shebang in the first line of both scripts, the correct syntax is #!/bin/ksh.
I have correct the portion identifying the script as ksh. But when should I include the PARVALUE variable within the first script. Script is running but always going to step portion of the script.
to set SourceLocation to the pathname of the current directory, but that is not what this code does. It sets SourceLocation to the literal string pwd.
Try this instead:
Code:
SourceLocation=$PWD
or one of the much slower options:
Code:
SourceLocation=$(pwd)
or (the less preferred form of command substitution):
Code:
SourceLocation=`pwd`
Note the huge difference in behavior between backquote ` and single-quote '.
Then note that the code:
Code:
for sfile in $SourceLocation/*
do
if [ ! -s "$SourceLocation/$file" ];
then
is setting sfile as the loop control variable and using file inside the loop. And, that the if test is looking at the size of $SourceLocation/$SourceLocation/filneame. Maybe you meant something more like:
Code:
for file in $SourceLocation/*
do
if [ ! -s "$file" ];
then
If this still doesn't work turn on tracing so you can see what is happening as your script runs. You can run on tracing by invoking your script with:
Code:
ksh -xv scriptname
or by adding the following line as the second line of your script:
Code:
set -xv

Reason: Add note about another problem in the code.
#!/bin/awk -f
BEGIN {i=1;file="modified.txt"}
{
if ($0 !~ /^DS:/) {print $0 >> file} else {
if ($0 ~ /^DS:/) {print "DS: ",i >> file;if (i==8) {i=1} else {i++}};
}
}
END {gzip file}
