Hmm.. the readme and internal docs where not that useful. # Arguments for your mktemp command to specify directory and/or create file. # For example, HPUX mktemp requires "-c"; FreeBSD doesn't accept "-p <dir>". ############################################################################### TMPDIR="-p /tmp" OK, since freeBSD doesn't like the -p option, what should this be? setting it to just "/tmp" generates an error. Setting it to -d /tmp/mmdsr also generates the same basic errors. Yes, the script is running as root. # mmdsr mktemp: mkstemp failed on /tmp: File exists mktemp: mkstemp failed on /tmp: File exists /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory /usr/local/bin/mmdsr: cannot create : No such file or directory The script then sits there for far long than a minute seemingly doing nothing. (I know it has a sleep 60 in it because it's intended to run at 23:59, but that does seem an odd way to go to me). Still, wanting to see the output it generated I ran it, but it seems to just stall. -- "Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers" ~Carlin ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
