Re: [rancid] error after migrating to new server
The "file" command says it's an executable image, not a script. [charlie@gitdrome ~]# file /usr/libexec/rancid/par /usr/libexec/rancid/par: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=968bbb9325486639b0fd1294bebcfef7c67317ed, stripped If you've found the correct par (and not one of the other programs of the same name) then like Nick said you need to make sure it's in the PATH of the user executing rancid-run. --Charlie From: Andrew Meyer [andrewm...@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2018 11:06 AM To: Charles T.

Re: [rancid] error after migrating to new server
also, it seems you installed it under /usr/bin, best practices for rancid & package management in general is not do this. perhaps install it under the rancid user's homedir & make sure $HOME/bin is in your $PATH first. second option is that you used a vendor provided rancid package instead of building from source, which might not include par. third option is that your cron or whatever scheduler you're using is does not have par in it's $PATH. // nick -Original Message- From: Rancid-discuss [mailto:rancid-discuss-boun...@shrubbery.net] On Behalf Of Charles T.

Short answer, yes. But "par" is troublesome.
