Programming :: Changing A Line In A Config File While Installing The Program Using Bash Script
Jul 22, 2011I am trying to write a bash script that installs a program fully automated for me. I am stuck at the one part where i need to change a line in one config file. I have tried various syntax for sed and none have worked. Maybe someone can suggest how to go about this. Since the line appears in the middle of the file, I can't use echo or cat. Also the file will be diffrent lengths depending on the install.
The line I need changed is:
I need that changed to:
the last syntax i tried is:
Yes this is for PNP4Nagios on centos 5.6 64bit. If i can get this figured out. I will be willing to post the whole thing for others to use. it will be used to install PNP after a working nagios install is done.

Debian :: Bash Consumes 100% Cpu
Sep 21, 2015I have a virtual server with debian and since last Friday a problem. The server is running normally. All sites hosted show no problems. But If I logon via ssh is the CPU usage of all cores goes to 100%. A simple cd (change dir) then takes about 90 seconds. using top or htop bash is the top scorer. Unfortunately I have absolutely no approach what I have to change here or where the misconduct comes from.
View 2 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Bash From Ubuntu To 6?
May 8, 2011I'm in the process of switching from Ubuntu 10.04 to Debian 6.0. The install went pretty well after some tinkering, but I want to replicate my bash environment from Ubuntu to the new Debian system.
I've copied over my /etc/bash.bashrc and my /etc/profile. I renamed my ~/.bashrc, logged out and back in, and expected to have my original shell environment because I would be defaulting to the system-wide settings in /etc.
Instead, the stock Debian environment remains: No completion, only the $ prompt, no up-arrow history, etc. I don't get what it's reading from and why /etc/bash.bashrc isn't being accessed. (Bash completion is installed.)

Debian :: Sed With Bash Variable In Rules File
Jun 6, 2015How can we do a file replacing string on debian/rules file using sed and bash variable ? I don't seem to be able to do so. I have tried below under the install section with arch dependent amd64, as far as I know all the bash commands are allowed to be executed in debian/rules file.
I have tried this :
Code: Select all
debian/rules file
ipaddr=`<long command to find ipaddr>`
myVar=`hostname`
sed -i -e 's/somestring/'$myVar'/g' $(configs)*
sed -i -e "s/somestring/$myVar/g" $(configs)*
[Code]...
Nothing works. Sed works but the hostname replacement doesn't work.
Debian :: Bash Script Based On Time Of Day
Mar 25, 2016I'm trying to get a bash script to do different things based on the time of day, but at least once a day the test fails:
Code: Select allNOW=$(date +%k%M)
if [[ "$NOW" -ge 1000 ]] && [[ "$NOW" -le 2200 ]];then
alarm lon
else
alarm loff
fi
This is the error, and line 59 is the second quoted above:
Code: Select all/home/electrolux/bin/ts.sh: line 59: [[: 059: value too great for base (error token is "059")
The script is run every minute, and this error only occurs at 12:59AM, or 00:59.
I presume the problem is either $NOW is being set to 059, or the testing is seeing 0059 as 059. I think the latter, because for the rest of midnight 'til 00:58 the script works. And with some Googling it seems that the leading 0 is making test treat the number as octal... is there a way to tell it it is decimal?
Perhaps this is just some poor time-testing code? Looking at it I don't think it will cope with set time period that crosses midnight..... there's probably just a command to do what I want, isn't there? I know I could have two different scripts cron'd for the different time periods, but it would be much more preferable to be just the one.

Debian Programming :: Bash Scripting For Jessie
Aug 25, 2015You are probably using systemd (check it with ps --pid 1) and therefore /etc/init.d isn't considered for autostart. Here can you find some information about systemd and autostart [1]. As far as I know systemd isn't intended to start applications with systemd. I recommend you to use the autostart feature of your window manager or desktop environment or at least the .xinitrc.

Code:

darkswamp is my hostname that I made up when I installed. On Slackware I'm used to it saying:
root@darkswamp
or something like that.
I'm starting Konsole the same way on both:
konsole -e $SHELL -l
I kind of wish it still said "root" just because I'm used to it.
