Shell Script - Problem found after read the KEY and VALUES from the property file

[rajujrk]

Hi All,

I'm facing problem in shell script that read the value from properties file. I'm done with reading the property file by the below code

Property file looks like

NODE_NAME=xxxx
WMQ_CONN_NAME=yyyy
WMQ_CONN_TYPE=zzzz
 

Shell Script Code:

get_prop(){ 
    propfile=$1
    key=$2
    grep  "^${2}=" ${1}| sed "s%${2}=\(.*\)%\1%"
}
 
NODE_NAME=`get_prop AppServerConfig.properties NODE_NAME`
WMQ_CONN_NAME=`get_prop AppServerConfig.properties WMQ_CONN_NAME`
WMQ_CONN_TYPE=`get_prop AppServerConfig.properties WMQ_CONN_TYPE`
 

Continuation of the above code having the problem

 
echo $NODE_NAME $WMQ_CONN_NAME $WMQ_CONN_TYPE
 
 

when i tried to print this

Expected Result:

xxxx yyyy zzzz
 

But the Output comes like below

zzzz
 

i tried below way to avoid this, but still having the same problem

 
echo "${NODE_NAME}${WMQ_CONN_NAME}${WMQ_CONN_TYPE}"
 
 

Please help me to solve this issue

Thanks

Your code works fine for me. Which shell do you use, under bash it works ok.

How did you make the script to run on bash? I am new to Shell Script programming

How did you make a script as bash?

Thanks

you put

#!/bin/bash
 

at the beggining of the script. make sure that /bin/bash file exists, it may be under different location in your system.

Could you put here the script code? What OS do you use (Linux/Unix, what Linux?)
