Exit Code

wasamzy · 11-25-2010, 05:03 PM

Hi All,

I have written a script that is being invoked from procmail. Now I want procmail to wait untill the program finishes and check it's exitcode.

My question is, how do I check the exit code of the script and take an action on it in procmail?

Regards

Emanuel

You can try to run the script yourself like this:

./scriptname; echo $?

echo $? will give u the exit code which ./scriptname returned on exit.
