I have a script that runs (this works fine).
I'd like to produce logfiles from its output and still show it on screen. I have this command that creates three files from this blog:
((./fk.sh 2>&1 1>&3 | tee errors.log) 3>&1 1>&2 | tee output.log) 2>&1 | tee final.log
This does exactly what I want it to.
My only issue is that I create files in my script and copy them somewhere, and I'd like to copy these logfiles there too, which I can't do whilst this script is running. I also wanted to make it easier for any user to run my script, so I created another script to run this script. According to this post (see last post) I can put a .
before the script name and I can use variables assigned in my called script from the first script if I use them in the first.
It doesn't seem to work though and I can't figure out why or find alternative methods.
Can anyone help?
You could define an environment variable that points to the directory you want, then let the script and the logs write there. Additionally, maybe wrap the line you're currently using into another script. – slhck – 2011-06-21T12:10:33.267
I am assigning var OUTPUT in first script, but when set in called script first script only sees original value... – neildeadman – 2011-06-21T13:27:49.620
