I posted this question last night but in the wrong area, so here goes again
I have a whole bunch of files in a directory that I need to submit using connect direct
I have created the following script to do this.
It works if I submit one file manually - However there is more than one file and having to past each file into the submit defeats the object
#!/usr/sbin/sh
cd $XELOGD/connectd
ls xeSnd* > $XELOGD/connectd/cube
CUBES=cube
for file in $(cat $CUBE)
do
export $file
echo 'submit file=/tmp/$file;' | direct | grep process >> /tmp/processid
done
The above bombs out with the message
XSQF009I Return Code: 8 Feedback: 2
:&FILENAME=/tmp/$file:&OSERR=2:
XAPI006I Return Code: 0 Feedback: 0
Specified file could not be opened.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Steve

Re: passing variable to connect direct
In this case however the error is in your script - replace:
echo 'submit file=/tmp/$file;' | direct | grep process >> /tmp/processid
with:
echo "submit file=/tmp/$file;" | direct | grep process >> /tmp/processid
The single quotes make everything inside them literal (no variable substitution), hence the error message. I seem to remember you should also use the '-x' flag when calling direct from the command line (but I can't remember why!)
echo "submit file=/tmp/$file;" | direct -x | grep process >> /tmp/processid

Re: passing variable to connect direct
Nope, it doesn't work
$ echo $(cat $file)
xeSndCube_CC_C_
$ echo "submit file=/tmp/$file;" |direct -x
| grep process >> /tmp/process.out
XSQF009I Return Code: 8 Feedback: 2
:&FILENAME=/tmp/file:&OSERR=2:
XAPI006I Return Code: 0 Feedback: 0
Specified file could not be opened.

Re: passing variable to connect direct
Have you replaced the HostName with
xeSndCube_CC_C_
If it is a literal, the shell is going to get confused by the '<', which normally is a redirection operator.
This should work:
xeSndCube_CC_C_\

Re: passing variable to connect direct
The issue seems to be with the variable $file being passed to the connect direct session

Re: passing variable to connect direct
for file in $(cat $CUBE) do echo "submit file=/tmp/$file;"
done >> ./myfile
Check that the contents of myfile are ok, and then run a
for myfile in $(cat ./myfile)
do
echo $myfile | direct | grep process >> /tmp/processid
done
Hope this helps.
