Redirecting SHELL cmd errors
|
Good afternoon Gentlebeings:
Hope you can help.
Why doesn't this return stdoutput and stderr to the log?
Code:
SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C XCOPY C:\TEST\O\*.* C:\TEST\A\*.* /y /r /v /f /e >>C:\logs\test.log 2>>C:\logs\test.log"
Thanks
Stanley

They error I get is
"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by anther process"
I didn't find anything in the link about redirecting output.
Appreciate the effort though

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

the error is pretty clear.
kinda like, your log file is opened for explicit writing so it can't be written to.

Laziness takes its toll. I did not read all of the links. Found it in the second one.
Code:
SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C XCOPY C:\TEST\O\*.* C:\TEST\A\*.* /y /r /v /f /e >>C:\logs\test.log 2>&1"
This did what I wanted. Thanks DOC. Give that man a star.

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

hmmm ... the rating system has to be understand diferently.
->Rate a user ONE star (*) only if you are really pissed off by his reply
->Forget all ratings in between as they really obfuscate the overall reflection of the rating situation of this User
->Rate 5 stars (*****) if you are satisfied with the answer(s); Like 'Wow, this guy really saved me half a day of work or even better my job'

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

and I thought you gleaned the info from my FAQ.
Not quite everything you wanted to know about RUN and SHELL
Guess I am not worthy of your vote then.
BTW, somone gave me 1 lousy star, knocking down the 5 I had to the current 4. If only I knew who...

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

I apologize again, but back to the original issue.
Is there a way to return any errors to the Kix script?
Code:
$ret = SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C XCOPY C:\test\a\$filename C:\test\o\*.* /y /e /f /v /r >>C:\_test\test.log 2>&1"
kicks up an "ERROR: Error in expression.!"

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

Are you talking about the error text or ERRORLEVEL? ERRORLEVEL is returned as @Error. There are various Pipe() UDFs that can return SHELLed output back to KiX.

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

SHELL doesn't return a value. Check @ERROR to find the return code from programs run through SHELL (i'm trying for a five-star rating too) :0)

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

Actually I am trying to get a return from any shell command. I did realize that @ERROR returns correctly, but what i am trying for is this.
I am transferring files via FTP and when I run the SHELL to run the FTP session I was hoping to be able to get the results into the KIX script so I can update an inhouse job monitoring system as to whether the files were actually FTP'd or not.
Shawn:
I have been monitoring this board for a while now , but just joined recently and from your past responses to other peoples questions I would say you deserve five stars.

check the udf library for ftpGet() (see my sig for alphabetical listing of all those 480+ udfs)

on the old board the pure rating is visible easy, how we know now what's the actual rating?
4.71 again?

Re: Redirecting SHELL cmd errors

In my group at work, our tacit motto is that anyone who hasn't made any mistakes is seriously underworked. Likewise, I would view an "almost perfect" rating as the highest praise. If you haven't worked with enough people to piss at least one or two off, you're probably just coasting. <g> (Hence my five-star rating when I had one -- major coasting going on here!)
