HOw to call shell script within another shell script?
Hi I am trying to call shell script within other shell script but gettting error: -
script 1.ksh is calling 2.ksh:-
1.ksh contains below code:-
Code:
#!/bin/bash
curl -k -c /home/code/cookies.txt  '/home/code/2.ksh';
minimumsize=215
actualsize=$(wc -c < "$1")
for (( i=1; i<=3; i++ ))
do
if [[ -s "$1" &&  $actualsize -lt $minimumsize ]] ||  [ ! -s "$1" ]
then
curl -k -c curl -k -c /home/code/cookies.txt  '/home/code/2.ksh';
fi
done

2.ksh contains below code:-
Code:
#!/bin/bash
Google


path for both 1.ksh and 2.ksh is /home/code

Mod Comment Please use CODE tags as required by forum rules!
And, removing the duplicate text would improve post readability tremendously.

What exactly are you trying to do? The second text is NOT a shell script. It does not contain interpretable code.
If it contained either of those URLs mentioned ONLY, you might succeed with a cat in a "command substitution". Make sure to use the $(...) form or the deprecated backticks, but not the single quotes that you placed the script name in.

And, trying to run above with the "shebang"s given will NOT use ksh as the interpreter, but bash.

In 1.ksh I am trying to substitute value https://www.infa-u.com in place of /home/code/2.ksh
