CD to the right folder

[Master3395]

Hello.
I was wondering if someone knows how to cd to the right folder.
To run a sh file?

\\RT-AC88U-EC48\entware\share\www\lighttpd\ths\start.sh

I've tried using cd, to get to the folder, but i can't seem to get away from entware...

Admin@RT-AC88U-EC48:/tmp/mnt/256GB-GoFlex/entware/share/www/lighttpd/ths#

chmod 777 start.sh
./start.sh (Makes an error, that i will be showing below.

./start.sh: line 10: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "do")

This is the "start" file.
# /bin/sh
while true
do
echo Starting Bot
node bot.js
echo Restarting Bot in 5 Seconds...
sleep 5
done

I also tried making the bot start there "forever".
But that didn't give me any good

# /bin/sh
forever ./bot.js

At the end i tried this below.

cd /mnt - then ls, cd to the drives mounted point, cd to entware, and so on

Then i did
opkg install findutils-locate && updatedb && locate entware

Adding my two files, that i wish to try.
But i can't seem to find a way to use SSH, to get to the right folder, then run the file.

Just about everything you've shown is an error of some sort.

1. I can't see in what you've posted the cd command you said you used that didn't work.
2. The start.sh that you run is failing because it has been created in DOS format instead in Linux.
3. The first line of start.sh is incorrect, it should be:

#!/bin/sh

4. The first line of forever.sh is also incorrect because the router doesn't have bash.

Below is where my folder with my files is located.
And i had issues cd-ing to it.
But i got a working away, from freenode IRC

Admin@RT-AC88U-EC48:/tmp/mnt/256GB-GoFlex/entware/share/www/lighttpd/ths#
cd /mnt

Then i did cd /entware etc so i got to ths#
Then i did

chmod 777 start.sh
./start.sh (Makes an error, that i will be showing below.
./start.sh: line 10: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "do")

And as you said that the first line is wrong, I'm not sure what to post in it.

# /bin/sh
while true
do
echo Starting Bot
node bot.js
echo Restarting Bot in 5 Seconds...
sleep 5
done

You should correct the errors in points 3. and 4. using the code I showed you.

Then fix the start.sh file with the following command:

dos2unix start.sh

 

[Master3395]

Just tried that, got this.

dos2unix start.sh

 

[Master3395]

Just installed these

Then i tried re-running your dos2 code.
It returned no info

 

[ColinTaylor]

Just installed these

Don't just install random stuff without knowing why. All 3 of those packages shown will conflict with existing versions already installed on the router.

Then i tried re-running your dos2 code.
It returned no info

It's not meant to. Now just run the script.

 

[Master3395]

If i do this, i get illegal instructions.

I want the bot to run, and restart only if it stops.

I don't want to restart it every 5 seconds.
It seems like it says in the output, that it restarts every 5 seconds.
But i don't see the bot running at all.

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
echo Starting Bot
node bot.js
echo
Restarting Bot in 5 Seconds...
sleep 5
done

 

[ColinTaylor]

If i do this, i get illegal instructions.

That's nothing to do with the script. Your node code is crashing. My guess would be that it's not compatible with the router.

 

[ColinTaylor]

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
echo Starting Bot
node bot.js
echo
Restarting Bot in 5 Seconds...
sleep 5
done

Also, the "Restarting Bot in 5 Seconds..." line is a syntax error because it should be part of the previous line. That should be creating another error message in your output. The fact that it isn't makes me think that you are not posting a real contents of the script, or you are running the script in a different way now.

 

[Master3395]

It is starting and restarting every 5 seconds, but i can't see that it runs, as it restarts every 5 seconds heh
And you were right. restart part was supposed to be on the side of the echo.

 

[ColinTaylor]

Like I said, the "Illegal instruction" message means that the "node bot.js" command is crashing. Probably because it is not compatible with your router.

 

[Master3395]

I no longer get the illegal instruction error.
It was because of a syntax error i made.
But even if it says it's going to take 5k seconds, i don't see it running on the discord.
So i don't think the bot is running at all
Or it can't show to the world.

 

[ColinTaylor]

I no longer get the illegal instruction error.

I can see the error right there in your screen shot.

BTW You don't need to do the dos2unix command any more.

Are you editing the files in ssh or over the Samba share in Windows?

 

[Master3395]

All files except start and forever is using samba.
The other 2 is done in ssh.

 

[ColinTaylor]

The other 2 is done in ssh.

I'm guessing that the first time you created those files was over Samba which is why they were in DOS format.

 

[Master3395]

That might be it.
But I'm not sure why it says illegal instruction now.

We can't help you with that. That's a problem with your node installation.
