File Not Found When running binary from .sh file

ormargol · 03-02-2017, 05:16 AM

I'm using cygwin on my windows machine.
I have cpp file that open another file and read it.
on the same directory where the cpp and its builded exe exists,
I've written script.sh which contains the running of the exe file.
When I'm runnung the exe file direct it works, but when it runs from the script.sh it says that the neede file to be opened and read, is not found!

I've checked the pwd and its the same on both running.
What can cause that?

you ought to show your script. The problem is in line #34

Code:

	if (optind < argc) {
			strcpy(BIN_FILE,argv[optind++]);
			//make sure the executable exists
			rc=access( BIN_FILE, F_OK );
			if ((  rc == -1 )) {
				rc = errno;
				myprintf("Value of errno: %d\n", errno);
				myprintf("Error opening file: %s\n", strerror( rc ));
				myprintf("%s\n", BIN_FILE);
				exit(AR_EXIT_FAILURE);
			}
			//Separate the filename and dirname C is unbelievable a simple dirname/basename call destroying its in therefor forcing us to make a duplicate first :-(
			char *dirc, *basec;
			dirc = strdup(BIN_FILE);
			basec = strdup(BIN_FILE);
		    strcpy(BIN_FILE_DIR,dirname( dirc ));
		    strcpy(BIN_FILE_NAME,basename( basec ));

	}

Note that it worked when I'm just running the binary.
When I'm calling it from script.sh it dont works.

That still doesn't help...you need to give us the script so we know how the program is being called, and the actual output when you try to run it.
