Help with ksh Script - copying files.

[Milleniumlegend]

The following is the script that I am trying to run but for some reason it gives me an error when the dir = "int" part executes. I am running the script from the same server and I have two different environment. I have read access to the source directory and would like to copy those files to the destination directory where I am running the script from. Could someone please see if I am missing something here.

Many thanks

# Source and Destination folders.
srcbin=/d2/share/qa/bin
srcint=/d2/share/qa/int
destint=/d2/share/m1/int
destbin=/d2/share/m1/bin

filename=$1
#echo $filename

if [ $# -ne 1 ] ; then
echo "Invalid Arguments: Usage: getcm.ksh <FILENAME.EXT>"
exit 1
fi

# Strip the extension for the file.
filename=`echo "${filename%\.*}"`
#echo $filename

for dir in bin int
do
if [ "$dir" = "bin" ]
then
for ext in lst gnt
do
cp -p "$srcbin/$filename.$ext" $destbin
echo "Exit status = $?"
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "Unable to copy $filename.$ext to $destbin"
exit 1
fi
done
fi

if [ "$dir" = "int" ] ; then
for ext in lst int idy cbl
do
cp -p "$srcbin/$filename.$ext" $destint
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "Unable to copy $filename.$ext to $destint"
exit 1
fi
done
fi

done

... it gives me an error ...
It might help if you could give us that error too,
preferably cut & paste.

I cant see anything wrong with your code - and as the 'bin' section is working and the 'int' section is very similar I think the problem lies elsewhere. What error messages are you gettin? Have you tried running the script with the xv flags - i.e. ksh -xv myscript

You may try this:
[ -f "$srcbin/$filename.$ext" ] || continue
cp -p "$srcbin/$filename.$ext" $destint

Hope This Helps, PH.

perhaps you need to copy files from ${srcint} instead of ${srcbin} when doing the "int" part...

HTH,

thanks a lot for pointing it out. It was indeed a error. I was meant to copy the int part instead of the bin.

thanks everyone for your help. The issue has been resolved.
