while trying to run some configure scripts i get this error:
: command not found3:
./configure: line 21: syntax error near unexpected token `elif'
'/configure: line 21: `elif test -n "${BASH_VERSION+set}" &&
(set -o posix)>/dev/null 2>&1; then
additional I have written a simple script that consits solely of:
cd /path/to/project
/usr/bin/perl /path/to/script/script.pl
cd /path/to/project2
/usr/bin/perl /path to/script/script.pl
...
for every single line of that script, i get the error :command not found...
but it executes anyway, even though it says there's an error, it still works!
is there a problem with the shell i am running? i set SHELL=/bin/bash in my
.bashrc file.
I am also using the rxvt terminal, my cygwin.bat file looks like this:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
REM set EDITOR=vi
REM set VISUAL=vi
set CYGWIN=codepage:oem tty binmode title
rxvt -e bash --login -i
thanks for your help.
