well I'm not going to debug your ksh syntax cause I don't immediately see
what you've done wrong.

 

But, the attached script will do the job for you without advertising your
passwords in ps. The instructions are in the script.

 

If that doesn't work then there is something wrong with the path and sid
you're getting when you invoke a subshell, and possibly you're

getting an alias or wrapper in place of the "real" sqlplus.

 

Typing whence sqlplus and cat'ing that out might show you something.

in your favorite search engine.

Hi all, 

This one just drives me nuts.. 
I have a shell script that works OK while I am running it manually. It runs
OK via cron up to the point where sql script should be executed: 

<<<bla-bla>>> 

/u01/app/sghe/dw/dwprod/app/scripts/dapstart
/u01/app/sghe/dw/dwprod/app/scripts/webstart

/u01/app/oracle/product/bin/sqlplus dwmgr/u_pick_it@pds1_PURPLE
@/home/dwadmin/scripts/bannerstudents.sql <<SQLPLUS
exit
SQLPLUS

the bannerstudents.sql is not being executed.. this is what i see in log
file: 

<<<bla-bla>>>
