Shell script error.
I downloaded a backup script: hostdump.sh
When i stored in one of the directory and run it. it says "bash: command not found" Let say, i store the script in /tmp #cd /tmp #./hostdump.sh #"bash: ./hostdump.sh : no such file or directory" or #hostdump.sh #"bash: hostdump.sh : command not found" How do i solve it ? pls advise... Thanks... |
This looks like the executable bit may not be set properly. Try
# chmod +x filename |
Hi.
I did the chmod operation before that.
#chmod 755 hostdump.sh It really puzzle me..tat the script still don't work. |
I think I know what your problem is. Open the script in an editor and look at the first line. You should see something like "#! /usr/bin/sh". I'm guessing that the path in that line is incorrect.
Type "whereis bash" and you should see "bash: /bin/bash". Now edit the file and change the first line to "#! /bin/bash" (if your whereis command returned a different path than my example, just change it to your path.) Speck |
