[SOLVED] Easy script - I thought

[jamesdcarroll]

I'd like to create a little script to run three commands in order. So I did this:

#!/bin/sh

/home/jim/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/lsnrctl start
/home/jim/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/dbstart
/home/jim/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/emctl start dbconsole

The commands work when I just enter them at the command line and they do admittedly take a few momemts each to run. I was hopeful when I ran it and my mouse did that 'circly' thing indicating that something was running, but alas I was not to be.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

Did you make the script executable?

cd directorythathasscriptinit
chmod +x scriptname

That was it but I did it as:

chmod 750 orastart.sh

I'll get the hang of this eventually!

Thanks!
