I have booted up into Ubuntu 10.04 LTS disc live.
When I type 'chroot /media/(UUID)', I get:
chroot: cannot run command '/bin/bash': no such file or directory.
'/bin/bash' does exist.
Why is this error occurring?
I'm trying to change the root directory to /tmp/somedir using chroot, but even using sudo or su-ing to root I get the message:
Code:
cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
I tried copying /bin/bash to /tmp/somedir/, but the same error occurs. What's wrong with my chroot?
Recently did a clean install (instead of upgrade) of 11.04 from 10.10 and this error bugged me for the first time.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install grub-pc

followed this one too to the letter: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo chroot /mnt/clean/sda1 apt-get install -y grub-pc chroot: failed to run command `apt-get': No such file or directory tried this one too:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda1/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot stat `aufs'.and this too which got me a bash something:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

Code:a mkdir -p /home/chris/Downloads/ARCHIVE/`date -I` find /home/chris/Downloads* -mtime +14 -exec "cp {} /home/chris/Downloads/ARCHIVE/`date -I` ;
It's meant to move old files from my Downloads folder into an archive file (later tar them). The directory exists, I've used $PWD and nautilus and ls to make sure it's there, yet for every file it gives

I am new to Linux and I wanted to setup a dedicated game server on my notebook.
I've installed Ubuntu 9.04. I than created a directory named /home/phlex/kfserver. I downloaded the application binary from Steam. I changed the file permission with chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin and now the file attributes are -rwxr-xr-x.
The problem is when I try to run the binary file. If I type ./hldsupdatetool.bin I get an error message "-bash: ./hldsupdatetool.bin: No such file or directory. It seems the OS can't find the file. I've downloaded the file several times thinking it may have been corrupt but it's not. I can delete the file, I can rename it and so the file is there. Sometimes Linux can be aggravating to use.
I had netbeans installed and I removed it using wheris netbeans and then sudo rm whatever files it gave.I also remember doing sudo rm -r /usr/lib/netbeans6.9 I did this because i wanted to install netbeans via the repo. Now I installed netbeans suing
Code:
varun@varun:~$ sudo apt-get install netbeans
and when I try running netbeans i get...
Code:
varun@varun:~$ netbeans

Have i changed permissions or something?
I just started to learn Bash. I need to work with what i know. Please keep that in mind.That said, here is my "problem":I often need to chroot to a Debian install from a Live-CD.So i need to:

I upgraded my php from 5.1.6 to 5.2.10 but at php -v I got a weird error, so I figured let's reinstall some things. This was the probably very dumb commando I used:
yum remove gcc-c++l zlib zlib-devel php*
Now I think my whole server is fxxxed because I get the following messages:
-bash: /usr/bin/yum: No such file or directory
-bash: rpm: command not found
-bash: ls: command not found
And the only thing I'm glad about is I still have an SSH connection open because creating a new connection isn't possible either. what should I do to repair this all.
An executable fails to be found and run when called even though it is found and displayed by ls.I am on lucid LTS fully updated 32 bit.The file has permissions setup but any attempt to run it results in the error bash ./executablename No such file or directory
This situation also seems to be present in kcronsometimes my scripts dont run from it even thoughthe run now option does.This bug has been around since dapper it would be nice if someone could fix it.

That thread is here, for anyone interested in reading about it: [URL] Anyway, my problem is that I'm trying to capture input that contains double-dashes ("--") but zenity (or maybe or it's bash???) complains with the following error message:
"This option is not available. for all possible usages.
bash: [/code]: No such file or directory"
Here's an example of what I'm doing:
Code:
# Select the time of day
Flytime=`zenity --list --text="Select the Time" --radiolist --height=300 --width=300 --hide-column=2 --column="Select" --column="Code" --column="Time of Day"
"" "--timeofday=real" "Local Time"
[code]....
What I want to accomplish is for the variable $Flytime to contain either "--timeofday=real" or "--timeofday=dawn" (without the quotes) depending upon which radio button is selected. I have tried escaping "--timeofday" (e.g. "--timeofday" and even "--timeofday") but that's not working.
So I have created a Bash script with the intent of the program to change the names of the files in a folder's subdirectory.The code recognises the individual subdirectories, then is able to enter into one and list the files individually, but when it tries to change their information it says;' cannot stat ' : ' No such file or directory 'As if it is looking in the directory that contains the Bash script, not its subdirectory.It is essentially saying, I see a file here called FILE but sorry, I can't change FILE because FILE doesn't exist. kweh?Is this something outside the capabilities of Bash? Am I asking too much of it? Can Bash only manipulate files that are in the same folder as the script?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo enter directory

Basically, I am trying to locate and copy the newest .json bookmark backup in my .mozilla/firefox/w987sdg9.default/bookmarkbackups directory.
I tried this
Code:
ls -t ~/.mozilla/firefox/b1ahb1ah.default/bookmarkbackups/ | head -1
which does return the newest file, but only the filename itself. I found readlink, but I haven't gotten that to output a full path which I can then feed to copy. So, it seems to me that find might work well here, and I know how to find based on absolute dates, but not relative.
How can I open the Firefox Profile Manager. I've googled and read but the directions don't work for me:

I understand the tilde (~) at the end of a file displayed in bash is a backup file in the Linux file system. Is there a way to keep these hidden when listing the contents of a directory?

I was trying to install periscope, from the instructions here: http://code.google.com/p/periscope/wiki/NautilusSupport

I find Makefile.am and Makefile.in present in the directory. I generally install from deb packages. Still, I don't think it should be this hard to compile a package given the seemingly simple directions provided.
I have very little linux experience. And need some help with a bash script. I need to a script I can set cron to run to sort files out of a holding folder into final folders. It doesn't necessarily have to be bash, but I think it would be sufficient for this. File names are formatted as such when created: Dest-Date-Time-CID-Destination# I want the files to be moved from a all in one holding folder to a folder structure like this.
.../storage/year/month/day/Destination#/VarX(type)/hour/CID/'File'
I would need an if/else if/else statement to say if Dest = A set VarX = B If for example the file name was
infinity-20100927-17:00-1112223333-4445556666.wav
I would like the above file to end up moved from
.../holding
to
.../storage/2010/09/27/4445556666/Inbound/17/1112223333/infinity-20100927-17:00-1112223333-4445556666.wav
So the script will need to make directories based on information in the file name which is delimited by single dashes. Then move files from the holding folder to the newly created "sorted" folders.
I'm writing a script to execute bash commands in the PHP CLI. I would like to suppress errors from bash and write my own error message if an error occurs. So far I have this (assuming log.txt doesn't exist!):
Code:
tac log.txt 2>/dev/null
Which works as expected, tac kicks up an error but the error is suppressed, but when I use this:
Code:
tac < log.txt 2>/dev/null
I get:
Code:
bash: log.txt: No such file or directory
The tac error is suppressed but bash still gives me a dirty error.
