I just unzipped the files, and ftp'ed them to my Linux account. My next move is I'm going to download the file directly to my ftp account and gunzip it according to the instructions in the docs directory for Unix type systems. Do you think it could be because I unzipped it in windows first? I would think that it wouldn't matter, but who know with windows, maybe its encoding some extra things into the file when I open it in WordPad. I do save as text file though. Can anyone give me the name of a Linux editor. I try emacs but it doesn't work. >-----Original Message----- >From: Circle Discussion List [mailto:CIRCLE@post.queensu.ca]On Behalf Of >Del >Sent: Monday, January 17, 2000 6:54 PM >To: CIRCLE@post.queensu.ca >Subject: Re: [CIRCLE] autorun script > > >I have not run across this kind of problem, but since you changed from a >windows >to a linux box, can you give more details on what you did exactly? > > >Mac Manson wrote: >> >> from a clean install onto a Linux server I get the following problem >> >> [tikkanen@sword MUD]$ sh ./autorun >> sh ./autorun >> : command not found >> : command not found >> : command not found >> : command not found >> '/autorun: syntax error near unexpected token `do >> '/autorun: ./autorun: line 43: `while ( : ) do >> [tikkanen@sword MUD]$ >> >> any xp'ed Linux pro help would be helpful.
