The first line defines the interpreter incorrectly, you need

Code:
#!/bin/bash
Note the exclamation mark

Also, it looks like you're trying to write to the root dir (of the disk, not root user's home dir).
/httpfedora.net.id190120092001.txt: Cannot create file.

You need to be careful where you run it from, or specify the path to write to (latter preferred for when its in cron, later)

When using embedded vars in a value, I recommend using extra parentheses

http$NAME$TIME.txt

becomes

http${NAME}${TIME}.txt

try adding

set -xv

as the 2nd line in the shell file to see what's happening

I wouldn't run a script I knew didn't work right as root...
at least, not without a recent backup!

Do you have privileges to write to the root folder?
Looks like that is where your application is bombing!

Try writing the file to some other folder where you have write privileges. That should do the trick.

Some of the error messages indicate the script might contain carriage return characters \r (also known as ^M).
This happens if a script is edited in Windows and then run in Linux.

you're right.. it works... now i want to send the file text to my windows using my windows ftp every 15 minutes. i try to make like this
Code:
HOST='192.168.0.5'
USER='vodka33us'
PASS='conan33'
ftp -i -n -u $HOST << root
user ${USER} ${PASS}

binary

put mail$NAME$TIME.txt
put http$NAME$TIME.txt
put ftp$NAME$TIME.txt
put dbase$NAME$TIME.txt
put serverinfo$NAME$TIME.txt

quit
root

rm mail$NAME$TIME.txt
rm http$NAME$TIME.txt
rm ftp$NAME$TIME.txt
rm dbase$NAME$TIME.txt
rm serverinfo$NAME$TIME.txt

SCH=$(cat /root/time_sch.txt)
if [ ! -f STOPFILE ]
then
  at -f autoscript now +$SCH minutes
fi
time_sch.txt is file that define the time. i use this because someday if i want to change the interval, i just edit the time_sch.txt

Why not just use cron?
