I have a script which builds a project and then runs junit tests. However, if the build fails, the junit tests fail with the same error message.Therefore the command which runs the junit tests should only be executed if the build was successful.
I am an absolute Linux Beginner who is being required to do a bit of admin work because the boss just fired the old linux admin. Unfortunately, one of our employees cannot remember her password to her email account and as such I need to reset it on our linux server.What I want to check is that this email account is actually a linux user account and I simply will reset the password for it using the passwd command from the root login. Is that correct?
I want a quick and simple way to execute a command whenever a file changes. I want something very simple, something I will leave running on a terminal and close it whenever I'm finished working with that file. Currently, I'm using this: while read; do ./myfile.py ; done And then I need to go to that terminal and press Enter, whenever I save that file on my editor. What I want is something like this: while sleep_until_file_has_changed myfile.py ; do ./myfile.py ; done
Or any other solution as easy as that. BTW: I'm using Vim, and I know I can add an autocommand to run something on BufWrite, but this is not the kind of solution I want now. Update: I want something simple, discardable if possible. What's more, I want something to run in a terminal because I want to see the program output (I want to see error messages).
I am working in a CentOS environment with numerous CentOS machines. Currently there are multiple developers that each have their own login/home directory and then for various admin tasks we all share a single super user account.
The problem
I have a number of aliases, variables, functions, and settings that exist in my personal login's .bash_profile. None of these are available in the shared super user's .bash_profile. My current work around is that everytime I sudo in as the super user and I re-execute my .bash_profile from my personal user's home directory. I am not allowed to edit the init stuff for the super user
The Question
Is there any way I can automate my sudo sequence such that it will execute my personal .bash_profile after I've executed sudo without requiring me to edit the super user's bash init stuff?

Here I'm trying to connect windows machine using connect object which is working fine. But when I tried to execute the command on Windows machine from Linux machine by using:
I am having trouble getting the while loop to execute in the ssh command:ssh $USERID@serverX "while read line do echo $line done<$list_dir/cost_feed.lst.old"Error:bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of fileI have managed to use simpler commands with ssh like:ssh $USERID@serverX "pwd; cp x y"I expect that I need to add some combination of escape characters or semicolons
My laptop has a dead battery. Even when it's fully charged, if the power cable is pulled out it only lasts for about 4 minutes before it dies. I'm running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 32-Bit. What I want to do is create some sort of script or program that will immediately set my computer to go into hibernation once it detects that the power cable has gone dead. I'm willing to look into all ways of doing this. I can program in C, but I'm not familiar with the API used to manage Power Management in Linux.
On my ubuntu I have a command pm-suspend, which puts the computer to sleep. It has to be run with sudo. Since it is inconvenient to be forced to type the password every time I want my computer to sleep, I thought maybe there's a way around it. Naively I thought that if I'd create a script as root, that invokes pm-suspend, and then let anyone execute that script, I could run that script as my own user and then that script would be considered run by root and hence be allowed to run pm-suspend. Obviously that didn't work. The root-check procedure in pm-suspend still found out that the original executor was someone different from root.
Still I think something similar (although slightly more elaborate) should work.I'm thinking about the process that allows the user to mount hard drives for example. Normally root is required, but it is somehow bypassed by the gnome utility mounting.
How can I give execute permission to chmod command from run level 3.Because in GUI mode we have the execute option in the properties of file. E.g. I gave following command chmod -x chomod After that I want to give the execute permission (x) to chmod command again but how from command prompt?
within my bobje directory, I have many directories and some log files . I want to delete those log files without traversing the subdirectories. so i performed these commands and getting the mentioned errors.
Is possible (by root of course) to run a command from console, that will be executed on X-session owned by another user on the same linux box/machine ? Example: Can root open xclock for another local user logged into X11 ?
So I am trying to put together a simple command that when executed from the project folder will run the appropriate hg/svn command in each project i.e:
[Code]...
Since the client has many such projects, Instead I am looking for a solution similar to find -exec where the svn/hg commands are automatically executed on each first level of match (i.e. svn up is run in the project/a folder but not in project/a/subfolder). How can such a command be constructed ?.
$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated. The reason written was that "The execution fails because the pipe is not expanded and is passed to date as an argument".What is meant by expansion of pipe. When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?
I have a big bash script ,its goal is to download movie one by one . But I often get into a problem: if this script is executed in cron,it often does not completely download the movie.I often find the movies it downloaded are several KB while the movie is actually 20MB.So I think it is because it did not wait for finishing one task ,and jump to download another.So I want to know ,is there a way to force the bash script to wait until one movie downloaded completely and then start to download another movie ?
I want to a allow a *single* bash script to run with root permissions (without me typing in the password). The script is located in /home/john/Documents/ Eventually the script, will try to execute a program which is located at /home/john/Documents/programs. At the moment, my sudoers file is like this:
[code]...
the line of code root ALL = (ALL:ALL) ALL present in the sudoers file? I mean what does each ALL specifically do? How do I change my sudoers file to accomplish running one single script file?
is there any way to execute a command every time a "folder changes status"? Under windows there's an API which pro-actively tells you when something has changed within a directory, so I was trying to achieve something similar under Linux. I can't think anything else other than check the list of files and parameters (e.g. date/size/owner) every few seconds, but that's not ideal of course... So what I'm asking here is: is there is a way to set linux to tell me rather than me go and check?
I have succesfully installed Debian with gnome-core, iceweasel and other useful packages and also followed this guide to autologin and start X. I noticed that the sudo chmod +s /sbin/halt and adding /sbin/halt in ~/.bashrc made Debian refuse me to log out (from X) and 'log out' turns off the computer insted.Removing /sbin/halt from .bashrc turned everything to as i want it. Should I "repair" or remove something I created with chmod +s command or should I leave it as it is?
Also I would like apt-get(or aptitude) update to run after login (and before startx), so i added sudo apt-get update to .bashrc but it will prompt me with password. Is there someway I could do this without the password(s) which su/sudo needs to execute? This is not so important but it would be very nice to update the system on startup.
I dont want to use ssh key authentication.I have a simple script which I need to ssh to remote machine and all I want is to supply the password on the same ssh commandline
