Sep 19, 2011This seems so simple when doing it from command line but I'm not able to accomplish it inside a script. I am trying to put output of following command into a text file:
CMD= mysql -uroot -psecret -e 'SHOW SLAVE STATUS G;'
FIL=~/replication-`date +%F`.txt
MAILTEXT=~/mailtext.txt
touch $FIL
$CMD > $FIL
Where FIL is a variable that contains path of the file to which to output command. I am running this command in a shell script from where I want to email contents of $FIL as attachment using mutt. But I am always getting 0 byte file. Also if I examine in directory the file is of 0 byte length.

But it doesn't work as expected, instead it empties the file (I am thinking that as the first byte comes out of sed, it overwrites the whole file and sed has nothing more to do). How can I make this work?
