Adding time stamp to log file in bash script
Note you are outputting to Debug.log, while you should indicate the full path of that file: echo "Time: $(date)" >> /path/to/Debug.log.
In general, whenever you want to add timestamp to a log file, you can use:
echo "Time: $(date). Some error info." >> /path/to/your/file.logdate will expand to something like Fri Sep 9 12:18:02 CEST 2016. In that case, you may prefer to use some date flags to have a more parseable date:
$ date "+%FT%T"2016-09-09T12:18:23Or, even better, using the ISO 8601 format:
$ date -Iseconds2016-09-09T12:18:23+0200All together:
echo "Time: $(date -Iseconds). Some error info." >> /path/to/your/file.log
