cronjob issue
 

I am getting this error and its filling up /var/mail; how can I fix this?


Your "cron" job on alpotaapp-c03
. .profile; $OTA_SC_LOG_ROOT/trace/apisnoop/oodata/tsoodata.sh

produced the following output:

sh: ?: not found
stty: : No such device or address

show the contents of that script:

and the .profile content too.

cat $OTA_SC_LOG_ROOT/trace/apisnoop/oodata/tsoodata.sh
#!/usr/bin/ksh --

i don't see anything in either of those files that would cause that. try them one by one.

first:
do you see any errors/output?

then:
any errors/output?

if so, then try to narrow it down. is the "dtool" program a binary or a text script? you can check with:

try to run that command by itself and see if it causes the error:
Note: be prepared to Ctrl+C or whatever to cancel it, if necessary.
