Command not found error in Bash script












0















So I have written a bashscript.sh file to check if a directory project1_repo is empty after cloning a project.



I have written four different functions to authenticate it but all the time I get command not found error. I have checked multiple times if there is a syntax error but in vain. Could someone please help me out? Thanks.



EDIT: Previously due to a typo project1_install_dir was called colsim1_install_dir but the edited version is correct.



#!/bin/bash

#path to install project1

function project1_install_dir() {

while true;

do

read -p "Enter FULL folder path where you want to install project1:" fullpath

echo "you have enterd $fullpath. Please press 'y' to confirm and 'n' to enter again"

read -p "Continue? (Y/N): " confirm

if [[ $confirm =~ ^([yY][eE][sS]|[yY])$ ]]; then

break

else

continue
fi

done

}

#clone project1

function clone_project1_repo() {

git clone example git .
}

# four functions to Check whether cloning is successful
# function 1
function success_of_cloning_of_project1_repo3() {

if find $fullpath/project1/project1_repo -mindepth 1 | read; then

echo "dir not empty"
else
echo "dir empty"
fi

}

# function 2
function success_of_cloning_of_project_repo2() {

DIR="$fullpath/project1/project1_repo"

if [ -n "$(ls -A $DIR)" ]; then

echo "Take action $DIR is not Empty"
else
echo "$DIR is Empty"
fi

}

# function 3
function success_of_cloning_of_project_repo1() {

if [ -d $fullpath/project1/project1_repo ]; then

[ -n "$(ls -A $fullpath/project1/project1_repo)" ] && echo "Not Empty" || echo "Empty"
else

}

# function 4

while true;

do

if [ -n "$(ls -A $fullpath/project1/project1_repo)" ]; then

echo "cloning of project1_repo is successful"
break

else

echo "cloning of project1_repo is NOT successful."

  • Your terminal output and the script are inconsistent. The main() function calls project1_install_dir but there's no such function anywhere to be found in the script. But from your output colsim1_install_dir seems to be called first. Is project1_install_dir another script installed somewhere ? As for the output -bash: success_of_cloning_of_colsim1_utilities_repo3: it seems like function name got mangled with other function name.

  • Sorry. There was a typo..both should be project1_install_dir. I have edited. sorry again.

  • No problems. So far I don't see any issue related to the error itself. You have a few places where variable $fullpath should be quoted and read -r -p should be used instead of just read -p , but these shouldn't be the cause of the error.

  • Was this script ever on windows or anything that could have potentially inserted newline endings specific to DOS ? Do you use a non-English keyboard that could have entered different types of space characters ? I know with Chinese inputs there is a wide space character, which is different from ASCII space. Try doing cat -A ./scriptname.sh , maybe it will show special characters besides just $ line ending
