General :: Call Another Bash Script To Run On A Subfolder?

Sep 29, 2010

I want my bash script to run scripts located on a different folder. If it is also located on the same folder with my script, it will go like this:

on my $HOME folder: (this_script.sh, backup.sh, restore.sh, purge.sh)
#!/bin/bash
./backup.sh
./restore.sh
./purge.sh

But what if, on my $HOME folder: (this_script.sh)

$HOME/scripts folder: ( backup.sh,restore.sh, purge.sh )

Below doesn't work...

#!/bin/bash
./$HOME/scripts/backup.sh

Programming :: Write A Bash Script To Call From A Terminal?

May 24, 2010

I am trying to write a bash script to call from a terminal that will change the terminal title. I am using ubuntu 10.04. The script is meant to be used in the gnome-terminal.

Here is what I have:

Code: #! bin/bash
echo "New title: c"
read title
echo "33]0;$titl07c" -e

[Code]....

it doesn't work

I think the problem has to do with modifying PS1 inside the bash so i tried this:

Code: echo `export PS1="[e]1;u@h:wa]${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}u@h:w$ "` and it still didn't work.

Software :: Call Website With Bash Script From Private Server?

Jun 30, 2011

Me and my friends have a website about games and stuff. The web hotel we use clears the app-pool when it has been inactive for 15 minutes. We don't have that many users yet so this is a problem because it takes ages to load if it has been inactive. I came up with the brilliant idea of calling the website with a script from my private server at home every 5 minutes or so. That way it would never go down.

I used some lines from another of my scripts:
wget -q -O - http://homepage.se/ > /path/to/a/file.txt
cat /dev/null > /path/to/a/file.txt
and put it in crontab.

The script runs and all and I think it's better now but we can't know for sure if it is the scripts doing. Sometimes it's just as slow as ever and I start to think the script doesn't do anything. I've tried adding more wget-lines to fetch some different pages from the site and now running it every 3rd minute. No difference. Does anyone know another way to call a website in a way that would solve my problems? Am I using the wrong options with wget maybe? I've tried lynx (and piping to file) but it didn't work.

General :: User Write In A Subfolder When Can't Access Parent?

Jul 13, 2010

I was wondering, i have a webfolder and have permissions set to 770 with group being www-data. I would like to give access to one folder to a friend so he can edit images, css, etc. I made that folder 770 with group being site_name with www-data and him being in the group. So far so good it sounds like. However when i use the full path to the directory linux says it doesnt exist.

Is there a way i can make it so he doesnt have r/w file on files inside the parent directories and still access the directory i want to give him?

General :: Zip -x For A Directory - Subfolder Contents Not Being Excluded Recursively?

Dec 9, 2010

I am attempting to use the zip command with the '-x' option to exclude a folder e.g. 'zip upload.zip public_html -x public_html/jquery/*'. However, parts of this folder are still being added to the archive. I made a shell script (saved as 'compress.sh' and ran as '. compress.sh') to do the archiving so I could test adding nested wildards for multiple subfolder levels.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
rm -f upload.zip
zip -r upload.zip public_html
-x public_html/jquery

[code]....

Each new line I added here that has the nested wildcards made the archive file size a bit smaller. Adding more /*'s than this didn't affect the file size. Even after all this though, there were still a couple megabytes of files and folders from the 'jquery' directory that were added to the archive.

Here's some examples of files and folders that were created after I unzipped the archive:
public_html/jquery/js/tablesorter/addons/pager/icons [folder]
public_html/jquery/js/tablesorter/addons/pager/.svn/entries [file]
public_html/jquery/js/tablesorter/build/.svn/text-base/js.jar.svn-base [file]

Why is it that despite all the -x lines, the files and folders like these were still being added to the archive? How can I simply recursively exclude the entire public_html/jquery folder from the archive?

Server :: Directing A Domain To A Subfolder?

Nov 5, 2009

I have a virtual server which I am hoping to host several sites on. Each of these sites is in its own subfolder in /var/www/http/ Problem is when I set up DNS records they can only point to the http folder itself. I suppose I can just redirect each domain to then go to the required subfolder, but I'd like to keep the URL the user sees as a simple xxxxx.com (without subfolder).
