I have different servers with different IPs with I can ssh in any servers and get my database intact (I don't know how, I am just an user). I have written one script to move from one server to other server using ssh in the same directory where I was in first server.
Here you can see final command that if I type will work:
ssh -X [email protected] -t 'cd /home/usr/regression && exec /bin/csh'
Now here a part of small script:
set path = $PWD
set user = $1
set cmd = "ssh -X [email protected].$ip3.$ip4 -t 'cd $path && exec $SHELL'"
echo $cmd;
$cmd;
Since It is csh/tcsh script I just want to run
$cmd
command but it give this message:
ssh: Command not found.
While If I copy,paste and run the final command that I am getting with:
echo "$cmd"
Like :
ssh -X [email protected] -t 'cd /home/usr/regression && exec /bin/csh'
Then It works fine.
The path variable in csh is a magic array tied to the PATH environment variable. When you changed it, you lost your original PATH. Not just ssh, but all external commands will fail after that because none of them can be found, unless they are in $PWD which is your new PATH.
Call your path variable something else.
