I have an annoying issue that seems to cause and infinite loop and I can't work out why. If I call the following function, it keeps repeating the yes/no options infinitely down the screen until I crash out.
AuditUpload() {
clear
echo "Audit report generated successfully"
echo " "
echo "Do you wish to upload qhub_audit.csv? (1 = Yes/2 = No):"
sleep 1
select yn in "Yes" "No"; do
case $yn in
Yes ) AuditUploader; Auditvi; exit;;
No ) echo "Upload cancelled"; Auditvi; exit;;
esac
done
}
I put the sleep in to see if it would remedy the issue but it still does the same. This issue seems to be very intermittent and doesn't happen every time. This script is written in korn shell (ksh).
AuditUploader function:
AuditUploader() {
echo "Uploading qhub_audit.csv to $HOST..."
curl -v -T qhub_audit.csv -# ftp://xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.com/
if [ "$?" -ne "0" ]
then
echo "ERROR: Cannot upload qhubload.csv"
exit
else
clear
echo "qhub_audit.csv has been put on $HOST successfully"
tput cup 5 5
echo "Copy and paste this link into internet explorer to download:"
tput cup 7 5
echo "ftp://xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.com/qhub_audit.csv"
read LINK
fi
}
Auditvi function:
Auditvi() {
clear
echo "Do you wish to view qhub_audit.csv? (1 = Yes/2 = No):"
sleep 1
select yn in "Yes" "No"; do
case $yn in
Yes ) vi qhub_audit.csv; exit;;
No ) exit;;
esac
done
}
After a bit of playing around it looks like it was looping whenever the 'curl' command returned a specific error which stopped the kill $$
from working properly. I replaced kill $$
with exit 1
and amended the other functions accordingly. I also put in a contingency to use kermit in case the FTP failed. Anyway, this is what my code looks like now:
#########################################
# Upload quotehub audit report function #

AuditUploader() {
echo "Uploading qhub_audit.csv to $HOST..."
curl -v -T qhub_audit.csv -# ftp://$USER:$PASSWD@$HOST/ -m 10
if [ "$?" -ne "0" ]
then
echo "ERROR: Cannot upload qhubload.csv via FTP"
if [ ${term} = "tty1A" ]
then
echo "Attempting to download to modems server..."
wermit -s qhub_audit.csv
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "Cannot upload to modems either!"
echo "This file will have to be downloaded manually"
exit 1
else
clear
echo "qhub_audit.csv has been put on modems server successfully"
tput cup 5 5
echo "Copy and paste this link into START -> RUN to download:"
tput cup 7 5
echo "\\\\\\xxxxxxxx\download\general\qhub_audit.csv"
read LINK
fi
else
echo "Upload failed!"
exit 1

clear
echo "qhub_audit.csv has been put on $HOST successfully"
tput cup 5 5
echo "Copy and paste this link into internet explorer to download:"
tput cup 7 5
echo "ftp://$USER:$PASSWD@$HOST/qhub_audit.csv"
read LINK
fi
}
