I am attempting to create a script for Grid job submissions. I have most of it completed but when testing I've run into some problems.
How it works is that I have 2 wrapper files, one is the top of the script, the other the bottom, the original script imports commands for the middle.
Basically this is what is to happen:
cat script-start.sh >> workerscript.sh
echo commands >> workerscript.sh
cat script-end.sh >> workerscript.sh
workerscript.sh gets created with no problems but when it is run I get:
export: command not found
I think that the new script is not calling bash which gives the problem. I don't know how to fix the problem though because I have the shell set in the script-start.sh.
#!/bin/sh - tried /bin/bash, same result
export PROJECT=/......
export PROJSOURCE=/......

I am trying to modify a script for research purposes and am having difficulty here as I have little prior experience with C-shell scripting.
The script looks as follows (it includes tcl commands like runFEP that you can ignore)
#!/bin/bash
for ((old=1, new=2; old<=4; old++,new++))
a1=${old}%50
a2=${new}%50
do
cat > input${new}.conf <<EOF
${a1}
code....
My question: I keep getting a syntax error when defining my two variables a1 and a2. I essentially need these variables to be
a1 = value of variable old divided by 50
a2 = value of variable new divided by 50

I am trying to create a shell script similar to ls, but which only lists directories. I have the first half working (no argument version), but trying to make it accept an argument, I am failing. My logic is sound I think, but I'm missing something on the syntax.
Code:
if [ $# -eq 0 ] ; then
d=`pwd`
for i in * ; do
if test -d $d/$i ; then
echo "$i:"
code....

I wonder if there is anyway to make a user-defined bash shell function global, meaning the function can be use in any bash shell scripts, interactively or not. This is what I attempted:
Code:
$ tail -n 3 /etc/bashrc
echotm () {
echo "[`date`] $@"
}
[code]....

How do I create a user account in a shell script? I know this may sound n00bish to you, but I know it's more than just mkdir-ing the home directory and subdirectories.

I am trying to do some shell programs. I tried some sites regarding the while loop, they give the structure as:
Code:
while [ n1 -lt 500 ]
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
But the below code also worked for me:
Code:
while ((n1 > 500))
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
By using (( )) I could use while, for. But the documentations didnt follow this way. I mainly use this for datastructure programming.

I want to compare the following two tab-delimited .txt files (both were subsets of the original files) by comparing Columns 3 and 4 simultaneously. It is easy to compare C3 because both C3s are just numbers. But how to compare C4s?Basically, in File1, "G,G" = G in File2, "C,C" = C in File2, "A,A" = A in File2, "T,T"= T in File2.In File2, A/T in Column4 just equals "A,T" or "T,A" in Column4 of File1. C/T in Column4 just equals "C,T" or "T,C" in Column4 of File1, and etc.
File1:
C1C2 C3C4
ih509rs12345467244750"G,G"
ih499rs6049687244911"C,C"
ih508- 7244977"A,A"

I have a QNX machine with a slinger webserver running on it. With a cgi script i'm trying to do the QNX cksum call and compare it's output value with a fixed output. When i execute the script at the command line it works perfect, but when execute this script by by the webserver in my browser it doesn't work. Here's my code:
#!/bin/sh
FILE="/home/checkfile"
ORIGCHECK="1712885500"
[code].....
Could it be possible that i'm not allowed to do the cksum call in combination with the slinger webserver?

so I wrote a simple script to scrape whatsmyip.org for my public IP address and then email it to me if it has changed. I set this up as a cron job ever 30mins.the problem is, it works for about 18 hours and then will have an issue where it says "line 33: [: too many arguments" Which line 33 happens to be my if statement. Now like I said it works fine for about 18 hours, i run the script with 2>&1 to a .out file so i can see what its doing...this is the output of the .out file, the "xxx" does actually show the ip.."PHP Code:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
already in file
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Using zstyle, I can create a custom warning for messages and such, but looking into the man pages and all, I do not see anything for customizing actual error messages in ZSH, as such:
Code:

I'm writing a script and I have doubts on how to assign values to an already established variable. The value for the vatriable would be coming from a file with three columns. I'm using the awk command for this. Am I doing it correctly? which of the following two ways is the better one or if both are wrong which one should I use?
#!/bin/nsh
inputfile=$1
rolename=$2

The two shell scripts (t1prog and t2prog) are given below they are working fine. The input for the first program is 't1.det' and for second program is 't1.rnaml'. These two input files are in 'dir1' folder. I am executing the shell like 'sh t1prog > t1out' and 'sh t2prog > t2out' from this directory only. Then I am executing a java program 'java RNA'; for this, t1out and t2out are input files used in the program and I am getting the final output on screen.
The input files 't1.det' and 't1.rnaml' are in different folders with same name and with different values. Each folder specifies one gene sequence input files.
In mfold directory there are 5 directors and each directory contains these input files as shown below
cd mfold
dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 dir5
cd dir1
t1.det t1.rnaml
[Code].....
for inputs in different directories and executing these and redirecting the final ouput after executing 'java RNA' statement to a file is needed.

Examples:
Code:
$ ./test.sh -a -c 2
operator is -gt
remcount is
^ value missing!
Code:
$ ./test.sh -b -c 2
operator is -lt
remcount is
^ value missing!
Yet when "-c" is the first argument, its value is present:
Code:
$ ./test.sh -c 2 -b
operator is -lt
remcount is 2
What could I do to ensure the value of "-c" is picked up regardless of the argument order?
