Hi every1, I need help regarding the cron job in unix. I have applied a script in cron job ..that scripts works perfectly on command line but doesn't execute perfectly in cron job .. After some investigation I got to know that it was due to "ERROR OCIEnvNlsCreate (check ORACLE_HOME and NLS settings etc.)". Can anyone of u kindly help as How will I set the environment in a shell script or the perl script (I want to execute)? Currently the steps is this that cronjob calls a shell script and the shell scripts call the perl script and perl script performs the task. kindly help me ... I need the solution as soon as possible.
