I have a shell script that creates a file and at the end I want to mail the contents of the file to myself or a group.
Here is what I have but I the script halts and I have to hit <ctrl-d> the n I receive an EOT and the mail is sent.
What I need:
- how to terminate the mail to where is terminates automatically
- can I cat the file contents instead of using -a
I have 2 shell scripts, script1.sh and script2.sh. I call script2.sh from within script1.sh ( by simple ./script2.sh command). Based on some condition, i use exit 0 to exit out of script2.sh. I was trying to find if i can exit out of script1.sh as well at once. below is the example
script1.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "Before ..."
[code]....
When i execute below is the output
Before ...
There was problem file is empty
The Script will Exit. Please fix the issue and run again...
After ...
I am trying to exit out of script1.sh as well so that i dont print "After ..."
This is a very simple problem, but I'm scratching my head with others..
In composing a simple shell script in class, we can't seem to get the script to execute fully. script was formatted as follows.
#!/bin/bash
echo "good bye for now"
exit
did, Chmod 755 to make executable
type file name "bye"
runs but wont exit.....
it just echos the type"good bye for now
The instructor says it works for him at home....
But it wont work in class...
Is there a reason it wont "exit" the shell as commanded ?
My two doubts:
(i) In office i open many terminal windows when i start my day and in each terminal i keep on login as different users many times in a day to do some task, by the end of the day when i need to exit from all terminals in a safeway instead of directly closing it i need to execute exit command or CTRL+D many times to close a single terminal safely. Can anybody tell me a way to exit from each terminal in single go, is there any command to acheive this ? I wish if we had a command like exitall like in vi we have :qa command to close multiple files opened in single window. I hope friends you have got what i am asking for ?
(ii) I want a software for debugging shellscripts searched a lot but dint got it.
I write a script to read a file which is something like a pipe (or) queue , which shows the running status.In normal case, if i open this file with cat command, i have to use ctrl+c to exit this . What command shall i use to do the same inside a shell script ? I have tried ^C in my script , but it does not exit the process.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI noticed that if I have "exit" in a bash script file., e.g. script.sh,that when the word "exit" is reached, and the script file being executed is not in the PATH nvironment, i.e. ". script.sh", the whole konsole shell profile is exited! What gives here? Is there another command compatible to "exit" to prevent this, or will I just have the leave the "." part in the PATH enviroment, which is, to my understanding, is not recommended? I desire for a "goto" function in bash script files
