sorry, very OT: No such file or directory
Sorry for being so OT, but maybe somebody can point
me to the correct mailing list (if there is one)
or somewhere else where I can get help...
The problem I'm having sounds ridiculous: I'm trying
to call a shell script and get a "No such file or
directory" error. The file IS there and executable
and I DID put a ./ in front of it ;)
First I thought the script contains a command or
library call that's not being found or something,
so I straced it:
svr1:/cdrom/accmgnt/Linux/setup # ./nds-install
bash: ./nds-install: No such file or directory
svr1:/cdrom/accmgnt/Linux/setup #
svr1:/cdrom/accmgnt/Linux/setup # strace ./nds-install
execve("./nds-install", ["./nds-install"], [/* 59 vars */]) = 0
strace: exec: No such file or directory
svr1:/cdrom/accmgnt/Linux/setup #
Any idea where to get help on this ? (It's Novell's
EDirectory I'm trying to install, but the guys in Provo
are still asleep now, I think ;)

The file IS there and executable and I DID put a ./ in front of it ;) Look at the first line. It contains the interpreter (like #!/bin/bash) if the interpreter given there, doesn't exist, it doesnt work. another thing is with dos-files: if the script is in DOS format, the interpreter can't be found, too

Thanks a lot, Markus :)

That must have been it - I copied and pasted all the 2243 lines into a new file - and now it's running.
