IT WORK!!!
IT REALLY WORK!!!
Thank you my brothers!
I agree "2>&1" after the command line and WORKKKK!!!

Thank you again
When you need my help, Don't dude; call me!!!
Thank you again!!!

If your question is answered, mark the thread as Solved (in Thread Tools).

That's tidier MTK358 but does it make any functional difference?

I doubt it.

It's just that this "2>&1" thing really irritates me because it's placement just doesn't go with the flow of data. Also I don't understand it's syntax.

What do these do?? I know you can use ampersand to background some stuff, but haven't seen a > arg1 arg2 before, much less a command > arg1 arg2>arg3

Am I the only one in the universe that knows about bash's &> operator and have to explain it to everyone?

It redirects both stdout and stderr to a file.

Also, "2>&1" never really made sense to me. I just know that "&>" is an elegant replacement that actually makes logical sense.

Oo nice. Thanking...

The tokens you represent as arg1-3 are not arguments; arg1 is an redirection target, arg2 is a file descriptor (in this case fd 2 which is stderr) and arg3 means "the same place as fd 1 is going to". Redirections are explained here.

I guess many of us have old habits, from before &> was available. Personally I don't find the usage of & in &> any more logical or intuitive than its usage in 2>&1!

Hey gays It WORK!!!
Thank you very much
The 2>&1 in the end of the command line written in the script WORKKK!!!
Now thank to you my script work ok!!!
