Can't run shellscript with sudo

Question

When I try to run my script like this:

sudo ./connector.sh

It give me this:

sudo: ./connector.sh: command not found

What am I doing wrong?

Solution 1

Either add a shebang at the first line of your script:

#!/bin/bash
echo "Hallo"

And/or set the executable rights

sudo chmod +x connector.sh

Solution 2

Another possible solution is to call the script in this way:

sh ./connector.sh

you can use any other shell type other than sh, depends on your code.

If your myscript.sh calls connector.sh, does connector.sh resides in the current directory or in the PATH ?

oh... myscript.sh is connector.sh i just renamed it in the post...

[heemayl]

Whats the output of stat -c '%A' myscript.sh ?

[Arronical]

Are trying to execute the script from within the directory containing it?

[Casper Rasmussen]

The script is in the /root directory, and im execute the script when im en the /root directory. My script just echo "Hallo";

Or in this way =) +1
