I have create a script to start a server(my first question). Now I want it to run on the system boot and start the defined server. What should I do to get this done? My findings tell me put this file in /etc/init.d location and it will execute when the system will boot. But I am not able to understand how the first argument on the startup will be start? Is this predefined somewhere to use start as $1? If I want to have a case startall that will start all the servers in the script, then what are the options I can manage.
My Script is like this:
#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
start)

I am trying to execute a 4GE file using command something like this "/usr/bin/ksh path of the file with some arguments " ex: /usr/bin/ksh /home/abc.4ge S "./xyz" . I am able to execute the 4GE without this "/usr/bin/ksh" specifying in the command which basically runs in ksh shell itself. But when i try to run it exclusively using the path of the shell it gives me an error something like this "/usr/bin/ksh: /home/abc.4ge: cannot execute". I did check the permissions and all the file has execute permission.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI do not want to use cron.I want it to be instantaneous. I am working on a web server where the hosts turned-on safe mode and turned off a-lot of the functions for PHP (including exec) in order to secure their servers. Outside of that, I do have access to chroot and can pretty much do anything on the server. I want to use ImageMagick to create dynamic images based on form data.
I was trying to find a work-around with PHP where I can still use ImageMagick (a shell-based imagining program) by causing SQL to execute a shell script after the form data is saved to a table. Is there anyway it could cause a flag to automatically run a shell script when someone adds a new row to a certain table. It has to be instantaneous, more or less, so that the user isn't sitting there waiting for a minute for cron to catch any changes to the database.
This is weird. I have a shell script with no execute rights.$ chmod -x test.shThen I try$ test.shwhich does not work. (I have "." in PATH)When I do$ . test.shit works! I can run the script even though I have no execute rights. Why is that?Another question: If I have a shell script without a hash bang, I still can execute the shell script. Why? What does hash bang do? If there is no hash bang, why is the shell script run? What does the hash bang do
