I need an environment variable from my .profile on Solaris and having
troubles getting at it. I have a Perl script which executes fine outside of
cron and now am trying to do via cron. I wanted to stay away from a shell
script and was wondering what is the easiest way to get my .profile loaded, so
the Perl script can access the needed variable.
I have tried with errors the following:
25 12 * * 4 . $HOME/.profile ; /d/src/pl600.pl dp51
and
25 12 * * 4 . $HOME/.profile && /d/src/pl600.pl dp51
I get the error:
sh: -o: bad option(s)
I believe it should not be that hard to do, but I only have really
enough knowledge to dangerous and know when to ask for help.
Thoughts, examples, site(s) where can pickup info to assist in this???
If you have any questions and/or problems, please let me know.
Thanks.
Wags ;)
