Description

I am getting syntax errors when running the latest version of the install fog script.

Command:

sudo sh installfog.sh --help

62 : Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting “in”)

The following also failed:

sudo bash installfog.sh --help

25: syntax error near unexpected token ‘$’{/r’’

I imagine this script is supposed to be able to run as is? So I am assuming I am just missing something. I wanted to double check before I start tinkering with it

Try

sudo ./installfog.sh --help

Working fine on Centos 7 with FOG 1.4.4

I’m wondering if Ubuntu updated Bash to be a bit different, hmmm.

Why are you using .sh, installfog.sh is a bash script. This is where the errors are coming in.

Try:

if you must:

sudo bash installfog.sh --help

They didn’t. The installer is tested on Ubuntu every day, you can see the test results here: http://perpetuum.io:20080/fog_distro_check/installer_dashboard.html
