Pentaho Linux .sh files

August 21st, 2006

Small little tip:

The pentaho build process doesn’t currently manage the permissions on .sh files properly.  When you download the daily builds or other demo installations you may get some errors (bash command not founds, etc).  You need to change to executable all .sh files in the installation.  Use the following command in the “pentaho-demo” directory.

for x in `find . -name ‘*.sh’`; do chmod +x $x; done

Hope you find this helpful!

    For Kettle you can also use the following command if you don’t like to do the chmod thingy…

    sh -C spoon.sh

    Oh, and I always use this version if i want to go to all subdirectories to change or delete something:

    find . -name “*.sh” -exec chmod +x {} \;
