Hi, I'm having some problems getting the output of a shell script into my n/a message.
I have a script called until.sh which resides in my home directory. I put |until.sh in the n/a message. When users read my n/a message nothing is displayed and on my end "[WRN] until.sh returned abnormally: exit code 65535" is displayed in the log. The script works fine when ran in the shell. Below is my script. #!/bin/sh # usage: count time until specified day HOUR_F="17" DAY_F="98" SEC_I=`date +%S` MINUTE_I=`date +%M` HOUR_I=`date +%k` DAY_I=`date +%j` DAY=`expr $DAY_F - $DAY_I` if [ $HOUR_I -lt $HOUR_F ] then HOUR=`expr $HOUR_F - $HOUR_I` else HOUR=`expr $HOUR_F - $HOUR_I + "24"` fi MINUTE=`expr "59" - $MINUTE_I` SEC=`expr "59" - $SEC_I` echo "There are $DAY Days, $HOUR Hours, $MINUTE Minutes, and $SEC Seconds until classes are over!" exit ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
