DB Search for multiple files
I need to look for 3 files in a particular directory, if they are > 0kb. If files exist proceed further, if not mail out saying one of the file is missing. All the 3 files should be present.

Please see my script below and correct if needed. Anyway, it is not working.

Code:
#! /bin/bash
receipient=someone@alibaba.com
if [[ -s app/reps/File1.txt && -s app/reps/sample2.txt && -s app/reps/temp3.txt]]; then

tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/File1.txt >  /app/reps/File1_tmp.txt
tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/sample2.txt >  /app/reps/sample2_tmp.txt
tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/temp3.txt >  /app/reps/temp3_tmp.txt

fi
mailx -s "All the 3 files are available " $ receipient
exit 0

else

mailx -s "one of the file is missing" $ receipient
exit 1

  • The first paths are missing a leading /
  • $ receipient : the space behind the dollar sign should not be there
  • fi is in the wrong place

I made the changes as below:

Code:
#! /bin/bash receipient=someone@alibaba.com 

if [[ -s /app/reps/File1.txt && -s /app/reps/sample2.txt && -s /app/reps/temp3.txt]]; then
tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/File1.txt >  /app/reps/File1_tmp.txt
tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/sample2.txt >  /app/reps/sample2_tmp.txt 
tr -d '\032' < /app/reps/temp3.txt >  /app/reps/temp3_tmp.txt  
mailx -s "All the 3 files are available " $receipient
fi

exit 0  
else  mailx -s "one of the file is missing" $receipient
exit 1


The script has a permission of 770 (tried with 777 also) but I am getting the error saying that permission denied.

Can any one help me?

WHEN do you get that error message? On which file? Please post a long file listing.

And, the fi still is in the wrong place!

Actually, I will be calling this FileCheck.sh from Informatica. To verify that script, I executed this script in putty as sh -v FileCheck.sh and I got the error message as Permission denied. I do not know, where to find the log file.

wondering, if the fi should come after the exit 1. Sorry, I am not sure, where it should be.

one more,
Code:
if [[ -s /app/reps/File1.txt && -s /app/reps/sample2.txt && -s /app/reps/temp3.txt]]; then

has to be
Code:
if [[ -s /app/reps/File1.txt && -s /app/reps/sample2.txt && -s /app/reps/temp3.txt ]]; then

space between temp3.txt and ]].
