issue is with .txt files
PLEASE get accustomed to post the full picture! How else do you expect prople to analyse the problem and eventually help you?
- What's your shell (the shebang won't work!)?
- Where is the part of the code BEFORE the
elif
? - What's the contents of
$psent80
- Which
echo
is executed ?
And, in fact, the if
statement is NOT skipped; it's the then
branch that is not taken.
if statement is not calling .txt file due to \r in .txt file
$psent75
is tested but not set anywhere.
Added data in the script
when I change if condition as below
if [ "$psent80" != "n" ];
it is working
To test I did executed the script again , as I have got an email for that value , this time I should not get an email and the script should give echo part
But this logic is not happening
again and again the email is generated with out going to below block
else
echo "Mail aready sent for 75%"
fi
I'd propose you get your act together, post the entire script, all (consistently named!) variables' contents and (!) expected ("n" or "no"?) contents, and complete error messages/descriptions.
this small thing took out my whole time
ok this is the answer finally
tr -d '\r' < filewithcarriagereturns > filewithoutcarriagereturns
fix the .txt files
