[jira] [Created] (MAHOUT-908) Example shell scripts don't run
properly on Ubuntu
Example shell scripts don't run properly on Ubuntu
--------------------------------------------------
Key: MAHOUT-908
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-908
Project: Mahout
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.6
There is some funkiness on Ubuntu when running example/bin/ shell scripts such as classify-newsgroups.sh. It has to do w/ the use of /bin/sh at the top you get odd syntax errors:
{quote}
./classify-20newsgroups.sh: 35: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")
{quote}
If you switch it to /bin/bash or invoke it as "bash classify-newsgroups.sh" then it all works.
I assume we can make the assumption that bash exists everywhere this is going to run?

----------------------------------
Yeah safe to assume bash, I think.
