For what it's worth, I've had somewhat similar problems executing the scripts in the bin directory after transferring them from a Windows-based machine to a Unix-like system.
You might check that the line endings in the file haven't been changed to DOS-style endings, and if they have, convert them back with a command such as dos2unix. Not sure this is the same issue but maybe worth checking into. felipe Melero wrote: > Yes, I'm running it from dspace/bin directory but no way to get it > working... > > surely is a matter of unix, I'm a chrooted user... > > regards > Felipe > > Robin Taylor escribió: >> That's good. #!/bin/sh at the start of the script just tells the OS what >> shell it should use to run the script, and it seems you have the required >> shell so you shouldn't have to change it to use bash.
