Script doesn't work when it is run using '#!/bin/sh'
I have a number of bash scripts that work perfectly fine on fedora 23,
but do not work on debian 8. I've tried to sort it out myself, but am a
little stuck now hopefully someone is able to give me a nudge in the
right direction.
Ideally I would like them to work on both.
On Fedora 23
$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 4 Jan 11 11:02 /bin/sh -> bash
$ echo ${BASH_VERSION%%[^0-9.]*}
4.3.42
On Debian 8
$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Nov 8 2014 /bin/sh -> dash
$ echo ${BASH_VERSION%%[^0-9.]*}
4.3.30
As I discovered they weren't using the same bash, so I changed over my
scripts to use #!/bin/bash and thought my problem would be solved, this
doesn't seem to be the case, some errors have gone but some still remain.
I have shortened the script and pasted it below, its the IF part which
is failing on debian 8.
#!/bin/bash
clear;
devSite="/home/admin/web/";
for domainDir in $(find ${devSite} -maxdepth 1 -type d); do
if [[ $domainDir == $devSite || $(basename ${domainDir}) ==
'site1' || $(basename ${domainDir}) == 'site2' ]]; then continue; fi;
echo "";
echo "Setting current directory to '$(basename ${domainDir})' web
public folder.";
cd ${domainDir}/web/public;
done;
The output I get from the above script is
wordpress_beta.sh: 8: bashtest.sh: [[: not found
wordpress_beta.sh: 8: bashtest.sh: web: not found
wordpress_beta.sh: 8: bashtest.sh: web: not found
Setting current directory to 'web' web public folder.
