check last line in file

1. Are you sure "Import dump completed successfully" is the last line? Are there other rows/empty rows possible?

2. What about to have multiple "Import dump completed successfully" rows in the file?

3. What do you mean "error will be written to a variable in another file"?

Check for single " character. There should always be a pair of them around a string.

How about the following:

#!/bin/bash

 

out=/comptel/output.properties

log1=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/cidev/exportlog | head -1)

log2=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/gaiadev/exportlog | head -1)

log3=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/gcidev/exportlog | head -1)

 

lastlog() {

  local status

  tail -n 1 $1 | grep 'MP-00000: Import terminated successfully' >/dev/null 2>&1

  status=${PIPESTATUS[@]}

  [ "$status" != "0 0" ] && echo $1 was not successfull >> $out

}

 

lastlog $log1

lastlog $log2

lastlog $log3

1. Not in the last line. It should be present in the file

That's not what you wrote in your initial post, but that simplifies it:

#!/bin/bash

 

out=/comptel/output.properties

log1=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/cidev/exportlog | head -1)

log2=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/gaiadev/exportlog | head -1)

log3=$(ls -1t /oldbackup/DNRTOOL/gcidev/exportlog | head -1)

 

lastlog() {

  grep 'MP-00000: Import terminated successfully' $1 >/dev/null 2>&1 \

    || echo "$1 was not successfull" >> $out

}

lastlog $log1

lastlog $log2

lastlog $log3

Hi.

You lost line

|| echo "$1 was not successfull" >> $out

Return this line to your script.

Hi,

 

I have tested the script for one of my import dump logfile.

 

 

 

How many times have you been asked to NOT post screen shots of terminal sessions?
