Shell Script before Backup: time limit ?

[Harry Cover]

I did it your way...

and got the log error:
---
| Error | sh: line 1: /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU: Permission denied
---

[dnanian]

And what happens if you run

/Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU

in Terminal?

You mean just pasting

and return key ?

I am just leaving for the south of France (loooong walking trip) and will reply in a week.
See you...

Thanks again Dave.

That's what I mean: that will run the shell script.

I'm back, and answer your question immediately.
I get this in Terminal:

---
-bash: /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU: Permission denied
---

[dnanian]

OK. Now run:

ls -l /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU

(That's LS -L in lower case)

And, it has no execute permission, which is where we started. Run:

chmod +x /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU

then

ls -l /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU

and it *should* say:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 Medecins Medecins 68 Apr 26 19:38 /Users/Medecins/Documents/AS.perso/TShirtBU

[Harry Cover]

OK, Dave.
I'll try it tomorrow (Mac concerned is at my business), and tell you.
