usage of history command inside shell script
 

Hi All,

I need to write a script which requires to display the output for the shell commands.

I am able to retrieve the result for "ls" but the "history" command execution is failed.

Please let me know if there a way to specify the history command inside the shell script and get the output of it.

Sample Script:

#!/bin/bash
ls
history

Rgrds,
saheb

remove #!/bin/bash
it will work.

Not able to execute the history command.

Please find the error message.

[s9:~]cat a.sh
ls
history

[s9:~]sh a.sh
a.sh logs
bin classes
conf jre
lib local.cshrc
local.login local.profile
a.sh: history: not found
[s9:~]

change the permission
 

hi,

give the permission to the script..

chmod 755 a.sh or chmod 777 a.sh

then execute, you will get the output

regards,
