Hi Guys,
i am facing issue with Unix commands
I created a small shell script to reproduce this issue.
echo FCP_USERNAME="TEST.MESSAGE" | sed 's/FCP_USERNAME=//g' > tmp
cat tmp | read abc
echo value is $abc
Now we are working on Oracle upgrade project and the Unix Box used for the older version was a HP UX and the new Unix Box is based on Linux. I am not aware about these OS technicalities.
So when the above shell script is encapsulated in a file named test.sh and i run the command as
The result on the HP UX based Unix is
while on the new Unix box it is
The value is not displayed at all. the READ command does not work in this new Unix Box. On further search i gave the command
and it did not throw any results which i think means that READ command is not available in this version. right ?
In that case what is the workaround to reach the value to a variable/file echoed by the ECHO command ??
