Yikes! Thanks for pointing this out!
I used the relative path in order to make setting up the plugin easier for folks running SqueezeCenter from SVN code, which could be installed anywhere. "../../." means: "set permissions starting at the parent of the parent of the current directory." I assumed that that path would be calculated from the script's location and not the working directory of the shell. Had I added a... cd /var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins/SrvrPowerCtrl/scripts/Debian ..to the script, I would have saved you all this bother. My very, very, very bad. I'm very sorry to have wasted so much of your time. I'll modify these scripts immediately! -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
