korn script via cron

[unixkid]

Wondering why this script is getting hung up. I have checked the path for ksh but it appears that my lines are DOA.

here is the error log:
+ echo /usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh
+ export ORACLE_SID=EMSEUWEB
/u02/app/EMSEUWEB/scripts/start_app.sh: ORACLE_SID=EMSEUWEB: is not an identifier


here is the script:

set -x
#!/bin/ksh
# Script: start_ems
######################################################
CHK=`cat /tmp/backup`
##########################################################
echo $SHELL
export ORACLE_SID=EMSEUWEB
. /u01/app/oracle/admin/envfiles/ORACLE.env
. /u01/app/oracle/admin/envfiles/$ORACLE_SID.env
###################################################
if [ "${CHK}" = "done" ]
then
/usr/local/bin/sudo nohup /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/bin/startupServer.sh &
# --- start TradeSphere Application Server
/u02/app/EMSEUWEB/TradeSphere72/scripts/ts_start.sh
# ---- Start EMS Application
/u02/app/EMSEUWEB/scripts/startenv.ksh
/u02/app/EMSEUWEB/scripts/startems.ksh
else
print "hello"
exit

Hi,
Since u are using shell 'sh',u need to redefine y'r variable definition i.e. instead of
export ORACLE_SID=EMSEUWEB ,declare it as

ORACLE_SID=EMSEUWEB
export ORACLE_SID
I hope this helps.....

Try moving your 'set -x' on to the second line of the script for a start, if you really want it to run under /bin/ksh (i.e. [tt]#!/bin/ksh[/tt] has to be the very first line of the script). Annihilannic.

Found that the script was forking serveral other scripts...I used a line in the crontab:

/usr/bin/ksh -c /opt/scriptname

It appears I'm still having some issues with sourcing in the envorment varibles. Thanks for everyones suggestions
