Error :

Code:
pwd
/home/websys/TEST_dpi_42_file_trnsfer_engine/PORT22
ls: cannot access /var/source/logging/target/d2/logging/target/fixed: No such file or directory

ls is working in local directory and not doing at remote server.
Kindly help how can i fix this.

Requirement is if connection work then ls the file into a current list and if connection failed then cp from old pulled file to current list

Code:
ls: cannot access /var/source/logging/target/d2/logging/target/fixed: No such file or directory

To make a wild guess, there's no such file or directory.

Can you login manually and confirm the existence of such a directory?

Yes directory is there.

but ls is trying to run on local path after ssh so its unable to find the path.

My requirement is ssh connection established
if true then list files of /var/source/logging/target/d2/logging/target/fixed and copied to $dpi_42_fixed_currentFileList (local directory )
if connection failed
then
copy $dpi_42_fixed_pulledFileList $trnsnt_dpi42_fixed_currentList


Kindly guide how can i achieve that.

I would strongly suggest running your script with tracing enabled. In other words, add the line:
Code:
set -xv

immediately after the first line of your script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

Your inconsistent variable naming convention (sometimes using dpi_42, sometimes using dpi42), the fact that you define some variables you never use, and the fact that you misspell "destination" with three "i"s instead of an "e" and two "i"s makes it likely that you might have used a variable that hasn't been defined when you intended to use a variable that had been defined with a similar, but slightly different, spelling.

One might also consider adding:
Code:
set -u

to cause your script to get an error whenever it tries to expand a variable that hasn't been set (instead of silently expanding to an empty string).

I had not posted the full code, so kindly ignored the unused variables.

Are you aware that your ssh login does an echo 2>&1 and immediately quits? The entire if ... fi branch is executed on the local node.

In post#1 you had an attempt to run a remote command and redirect its output to a local file:
Code:
ssh -nqx $dpi_srvr_42 -p 22 "
  ls $dpi_42_sourceFilesDir/fixed | grep '\.tgz$'
" > $dpi_42_fixed_currentFileList

The following does the opposite, it runs a local command and redirect its output to a remote file:
Code:
ls $dpi_42_sourceFilesDir/fixed | grep '\.tgz$' | ssh -qx $dpi_srvr_42 "
  cat > $dpi_42_fixed_currentFileList
"

This one needs a command on the remote site, in this case cat that does nothing than copying from stdin to stdout. The stdin is what is piped to ssh.
