running a .sh script

Am trying to run a .sh script file. Have been away from linux for a few months, been trying to remember how to run one. Have tried the old ./ but doesn't work, i know its similar but can't remember. Anyone help me out?

check permissions set to executable.
check that your $PATH has '.'

You can run bash using the script as an argument,

Code:

$ bash /path/to/your/script.sh

or you can turn it into a executable and run it as a command

Code:

$ cd /path/to/your

$ chmod u+x script.sh

$ ./script.sh

or add the path to it into PATH variable to run it from anywhere

Code:

$ export PATH=${PATH}:/path/to/your

$ chmod u+x /path/to/your/script.sh

$ script.sh
