I have a simple shell script which I want to use as a client plugin. In the script I create the STATUS and some other messages that I want to use and assemble them into a CMD.
But bb will not accept this from the script - but the command is perfect - I can say that because to debug I echo the command and if I copy and paste it works. But if have the script run the $CMD it fails.
In the script:
MYCMD="$BB $BBDISP \"status $MACHINE.BWEB $STATUS `date` WEB OK\""
echo $MYCMD
$MYCMD
I run it from inside of bbcmd and I get:
sh-3.1$ ext/webCheck.sh
/home/hobbit/client/bin/bb 10.1.90.21 "status web2,sc1,boredat,net.BWEB green Wed Sep 5 14:55:08 PDT 2007 WEB OK"
Hobbit version 4.2.0
Usage: /home/hobbit/client/bin/bb [--debug] [--proxy=http:// ip.of.the.proxy:port/] RECIPIENT DATA
RECIPIENT: IP-address, hostname or URL
DATA: Message to send, or "-" to read from stdin
sh-3.1$
And if I copy and paste the first line - it works, the server sees it and everything is fine.
