ok... this is where i am at... i need a script to call another script as a wrapper because the first script creates a sub-shell.
here is what i got... i kick off the first script "CCBDEMO-threadpoolworker.sh"
#!/bin/bash
clear #clearing screen
directory="/data1/spl/cis/CCBDEMO/bin"
startenviron="splenviron.sh -e CCBDEMO -c threadworkerstart.sh"
cd $directory
$startenviron
exit
as you can see... that is pretty self explanitory... i am kicking off a script called splenviron.sh that basically sets all the environment variables for the instance of CCBDEMO for Oracle's CC&B application. then once it does that it kicks off another shell script that actuall sends the command to start the threadpoolworker for batch-processing...
threadworkerstart.sh:
#!/bin/bash
directory="/data1/spl/cis/CCBDEMO/bin"
tpws="nohup threadpoolworker.sh -p DEFAULT=5 -d Y >/dev/null &"
cd $directory
$tpws
echo "**********************************************"
echo "** START OF THREADPOOLWORKER HAS COMPLETED. **"
echo "** PLEASE TYPE EXIT TO REMOVE YOURSELF FROM **"
echo "** THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS. **"
echo "**********************************************"
what this is supposed to do, is start up the batchprocessing threadpools... in the background, so that i don't need to keep a terminal (putty session) open all the time... well it all works until i get to the nohup part... it actually does kick off the threadpool, and starts sending everything to the nohup.out, but it will not give me my prompt back unless i kill it... here is the output from the start of the first shell script, to the hang...

at this point it just hangs... doesn't give me a prompt back, nothing... until i hit CTRL+C... then it completes with the "echo" commands and then back to the first script and does the exit as requested...
am i doing something wrong in my code?
