I am running a shell script which invokes two scrips within, in a sequence on two other systems using scp and ssh.



I need to print the output of the two scripts within the main script to the screen however for debugging i would like to have output similar to sh -x <script.sh> somewhere on a file.



Is there a way to achieve this without breaking the standard output messages for the user ?

  • sh -x writes to stderr, not stdout.

  • Are you suggesting i should use it probably this way ? sh -x <script.sh> 2>somefile.log ?

  • That could work... you could also add in script.sh a line in the beginning like exec 2>>file.log
