Hi!
I have been running a csh script to produce L2 MODIS data.
For some reason, after upgrading SeaDAS I am not longer able to run it as a cron job.
I have tracked it down to be an enviromental problem.
Thus, trying to source the $SEADAS/config/seadas.env in my .cshrc whitout success.
When writing source $SEADAS/config/seadas.env, I get an error saying
export: command not found

How am I supposed to add this to my .cshrc file.

Thank you,
Roger

Hi again!
I've just found out my seadas.env is for bash.
Is there a way, other than re-installing, to change from bash to csh?

Thanks again,
Roger

Roger,

Yes, it sounds like when you created your seadas.env file you were running it from a bash shell.  To change it, simply start up a c-shell with the "csh" command, and then re-run the seadas_setup script.  That will create a new seadas.env file for you with c-shell commands in it.

Okay, try running the "chsh" command.  This is the change shell command.  It will reset your login shell to csh when you specify "/bin/csh" at the prompt.  Then logout and login.  Then try re-running the seadas_setup script and let me know if that doesn't work.

Roger, if you do prefer your default shell to be bash you might be able to create a simple bash script that is called by cron. This bash script would then call your original csh script which I believe would inherit the seadas environment, e.g.:


  #!/bin/bash
  /home/roger/bin/processing_script.csh


You could also change your processing script to be a bash or sh script instead of a csh script.. this can be done by changing the 1st line from "#!/bin/csh" to "#!/bin/bash", and then changing the csh syntax within the script to bash or sh syntax.
