cygwin scp script error
I'm using cygwin scp to copy a file down from a AIX server to my laptop.

I've got he script working from the command line. The file I'm copying is Processed.Apr21 and I'm copying it to /event_transfer folder on my laptop.

scp username@149.131.224.104:/var/Tivoli.../processed.Apr21 /event_transfer

This works fine until I try and run it from a script and then I just get "No Such File or Directory"

Any ideas anyone?

check out whether there is any spelling mistake .Like upper case or lower case .

Also check out whether the path is correct or not.

I've double checked paths. But copying the command line from the script and pasteing it manually works. So I know there are no spelling mistakes.
