Run Shellscript from Mac Automator

Question

On OS X 10.9.5

I wrote a Script shell (via vim). Save it and go to this Script and

sh code.sh It works great (in iTerm and Total Terminal).

The same command in the same directory always creates ERROR through Mac Automator. Why?

in Automator and in the terminal.

echo $SHELL /bin/bash Why is it impossible to run shellscript through Automator.

Answer 1

I suspect this is a bit cd Desktop. You can try:

(cd ~/Desktop; sh code.sh)

However:

• You must make an executable code.sh, so you do not need to call it with sh. This is done using chmod 0755 code.sh.

• script ( , script), script, ~/Desktop/code.sh

  #!/bin/bash
  dir=$(dirname $0)
  cd $dir
  # do work
  

:

➜  ~  cat tmp/code.sh
#!/bin/bash
dir=$(dirname $0)
cd $dir
ls -l

➜  ~  chmod 0755 tmp/code.sh
➜  ~  tmp/code.sh
