While_Run_For_loop_In_bash-Permission-denied - bash

When I'm executing the bash script it said permission denied on a line. below the script and other details.
#!/bin/bash
find /var/opt/gitlab/backups/ -amin +60 |grep tar | cut -d '/' -f 6 >
/tmp/delete-files.txt
chmod +rw /var/opt/gitlab/backups/*.tar
chmod +rw /tmp/delete-files.txt
for i in `/tmp/delete-files.txt`
do
rm -rf /var/opt/gitlab/backups/$i
[root#git opt]# ./asaaa
./asaaa: line 10: /tmp/delete-files.txt: Permission denied'
[root#git opt]#
[root#git opt]# ll /tmp/delete-files.txt
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 100 Mar 11 12:43 /tmp/delete-files.txt
[root#git opt]#
Help me to sort out this issue.

This line is incorrect:
for i in `/tmp/delete-files.txt`
Backticks mean command substitution. Your script will try to execute /tmp/delete-files.txt. This is not an executable file.
My guess is that what you wanted to do was:
for i in `cat /tmp/delete-files.txt`
Ie. execute cat command to print the contents of the /tmp/delete-files.txt and then loop through each of the printed lines in the for loop.

Check if file exists remotly in bash

I have a bashscript which checks if a file exists on the remote server.
When i execute this bashscript on commandline it works fine and say to me the file exist (as it should). But when crontab is executing this bashscript it says that the file not exist (although it would exist
).
can anybody help me?
myscript.sh
#!/bin/bash
if $(sudo ssh -i <path/to/ssh/keys> <user>#<ip> "[[ -f /etc/ssl/file.txt ]]");then
echo "exist"
else
echo "not exist"
fi
crontab:
*/1 * * * * bash /home/user/myscript.sh | mail -s "betreff" user#email.com
stderr: (when i run the script on the commandline)
++ sudo ssh -i <path/to/ssh/keys> <user>#<ip> '[ -f /etc/ssl/file.txt ]'
+ echo exist
exist
stderr: (when i run the script in cron)
++ sudo ssh -i <path/to/ssh/key> <user>#<ip> '[ -f /etc/ssl/file.txt ]'
Warning: Identity file /root/.ssh/key/keyfile not accessible: No such file or directory.

Thanks for helping :D

FTP not working UNIX

hi i have a script where i am performing sudo and going to particular directory,and within that directory editing files name as required. After getting required file name i want to FTP files on windows machine but script after reading FTP commands says-:
-bash: line 19: quote: command not found
-bash: line 20: quote: command not found
-bash: line 21: put: command not found
-bash: line 22: quit: command not found
My ftp is working if i run normally so it is some other problem.Script is below-:
#!/usr/bin/
path=/global/u70/glob
echo password | sudo -S -l
sudo /usr/bin/su - glob << 'EOF'
#ls -lrt
cd "$path"
pwd
for entry in $(ls -r)
do
if [ "$entry" = "ADM" ];then
cd "$entry"
FileName=$(ls -t | head -n1)
echo "$FileName"
FileNameIniKey=$(ls -t | head -n1 | cut -c 12-20)
echo "$FileNameIniKey"
echo "$xmlFileName" >> "$xmlFileNameIniKey.ini"
chmod 755 "$FileName"
chmod 755 "$FileNameIniKey.ini"
ftp -n hostname
quote USER ftp
quote PASS
put "$FileName"
quit
rm "$FileNameIniKey.ini"
fi
done
EOF
You can improve your questions and make them easier to answer and more useful for future readers by including a minimal, self-contained example. Here's an example:
#!/bin/bash
ftp -n mirrors.rit.edu
quote user anonymous
quote pass mypass
ls
When executed, you get a manual FTP session instead of a file listing:
$ ./myscript
Trying 2620:8d:8000:15:225:90ff:fefd:344c...
Connected to smoke.rc.rit.edu.
220 Welcome to mirrors.rit.edu.
ftp>
The problem is that you're assuming that a script is a series of strings that are automatically typed into a terminal. This is not true. It's a series of commands that are executed one after another.
Nothing happens with quote user anonymous until AFTER ftp has exited, and then it's run as a shell command instead of being written to the ftp command.
Instead, specify login credentials on the command line and then include commands in a here document:
ftp -n "ftp://anonymous:passwd#mirrors.rit.edu" << end
ls
end
This works as expected:
$ ./myscript
Trying 2620:8d:8000:15:225:90ff:fefd:344c...
Connected to smoke.rc.rit.edu.
220 Welcome to mirrors.rit.edu.

chown directory in bash

I am trying to chown a home directory test for an bash script. I need this functionality because of syncthing which is not syncing the ownerships.
#!/bin/bash
user=test
"chown $user:$user /home/$user"
When I use the above script, I get a message "test.sh: line 5: chown test:test ~/home/test/: No such file or directory
"
Output of
ls -l /home/ |grep test
drwx------ 5 pwresettest 1005 121 2. Nov 04:23 pwresettest
drwx------ 14 test 1001 4096 29. Okt 05:41 test
When I am using the command on the commandline, it works without problems.
Did I do something wrong?
The shell treats the quoted string as a single word to as the name of the command, rather than a command name followed by arguments. Simply take off the quotes you've added in your script:
#!/bin/bash
user=test
chown $user:$user /home/$user
When you use chown on the command line you aren't quoting the entire command. Don't do that in the script either. – Etan Reisner

./script.sh: line 8: /etc/passwd: Permission denied

I have this script which I can't execute:
#!/bin/bash
USERS="/etc/passwd"
for user in `$USERS | cut -f 1 -d ':'`
do
echo $user
done
This is the output of ls -l script.sh:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 user user 94 Jul 30 21:24 script.sh
What am I doing wrong? :|
I also tried running it as root and with sudo and nothing worked...it's annoying...
You're trying to execute /etc/passwd and send the output to cut. You want to redirect the contents of the file:
for user in `cut -f 1 -d : < $USERS`

How to use shell command to check SVN check-out files and create links in an directory

Basically my question is how to use bash shell command to do following automatically, so I can track modified files easily.
list svn check-out files
create link files to above files in an directory called "change"
laptop$ svn status -q
M rcms/src/config/ta_show.c
M rcms/src/config/ta_config.c
laptop$ cd change
laptop$ link -s ../rcms/src/config/ta_show.c ta_show.c
laptop$ link -s ../rcms/src/config/ta_config.c ta_config.c
laptop$ ls
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 Nov 27 12:24 ta_show.c -> ../rcms/src/config/ta_show.c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 Nov 27 12:24 ta_config.c -> ../rcms/src/config/ta_config.c
I am thinking to use shell command like below:
$ svn status -q | sed 's/M //' | xargs -I xxx ln -s ***BETWEEN REAL FILE AND BASE FILENAME***
you have two things need to be concerned:
the empty line between each file with svn status 'M'
extract the file name
the awk one liner could do it:
awk '$0{x=$2;gsub(".*/","",x);print "ln -s ../"$2" "x}'
so if you pipe your svn status output to the line above, it print the ln -s command lines for you.
if you want the ln -s lines to get executed, you could either pipe the output to sh (svn status|awk ...|sh) or replace the print with system
at the end i would like to show the output below as an exmple:
kent$ echo "M rcms/src/config/ta_show.c
M rcms/src/config/ta_config.c"|awk '$0{x=$2;gsub(".*/","",x);print "ln -s .."$2" "x}'
ln -s ../rcms/src/config/ta_show.c ta_show.c
ln -s ../rcms/src/config/ta_config.c ta_config.c
