This is logging in now, but not running the sql script:


ROOT@host# more test.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
su - oracle -c '/apps/oracle/product/9.2/bin/sqlplus "/ as sysdba"' @/apps/oracle/select_users.sql


ROOT@host# ./test.ksh

Connected to: Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - 64bit Production With the Partitioning and OLAP options JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production

SQL>


I have used ' ' and " " around the script, but it is still not running the script, its logging in though!


thanks.

I do something similar but the call to SQL*Plus is in a script, i.e.

su - oracle -c ./myscript.sh

where, in this case, myscript.sh would be

-------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/ksh

sqlplus /nolog <<EOF
@/apps/oracle/select_user.sql
EOF
--------------------------------------------

Have you tried doing that.  I'd guess that what's happening is that
the su command is interpreting the /nolog as a separate attribute.  If
you really don't want to encapsulate the call to SQL*Plus in a script
then try putting it in quotes:

su - oracle -c '/apps/oracle/product/9.2/bin/sqlplus /nolog'
