Terminal - Already have root access - can't run script

Hello everyone!
Any help would be most appreciated!
I am attempting to install RUSH (a render queuing program for our post-production environment) on fresh 10.6.2 machine. I've already enabled the root account, and when I su'd to root I used the command "su - root" to make sure that I wasn't pulling over any attrib. from my non-root account.
I am trying to run the install script "install.sh" but whenever I use the command "./install.sh" I get an error "This script must be run as root
". I don't see why it doesn't work. The permissions are all 777, and I made sure the script was executable.
Anyone have any advice as to how I can get this fixed?
Thanks!!!

what do you get for the following commands:
id -u
echo $USER
echo $LOGNAME
What I'm wondering is how the code you are installing has decided you are NOT root. Is it looking at your username and expecting the spelling 'root', or is it looking at your User ID, and expecting '0'.
I generally just use the following to become root without needing to actually enable root logins
sudo su -

    Can we have chance to written timer logic at Javascript?
    This can be done by sending a script from Bridge to InDesign, through BridgeTalk and using Bridge's scheduleTask() method.
    Here is an example:
    #target bridge
    var myScript = 'CreateBridgeTalkMessage()';
    app.scheduleTask(myScript, 10000, true);
    function CreateBridgeTalkMessage() {
        var bt = new BridgeTalk();
        bt.target = "indesign";
        var myScript = InDesignScript.toString() + '\r';
        myScript += 'InDesignScript();';
        bt.body = myScript;
        bt.send();
    function InDesignScript() {
        alert(app.documents.length + " documents are currently open in InDesign. This script is triggered by Bridge every 10 seconds using scheduleTask method");

  • Can we run script logic at the time of preparing reports.

    Helo Everybody!
    I am new to SAP BPC.
    Can we run script logic at the time of preparing reports.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Satish.

    If you mean, "Can we run script logic at the time of preparing reports" is equivalent to entering data into the report and sending it to the database, then yes, you may run logic as Marcel indicates.  Defualt logic is ALWAYS run for ANY and EVERY set of data that is sent via an input template from the field.  You may also run logic when posting a jOURNAL entry as well.  But be careful....if default logic attempts to perform to MANY or COMPLEX calculations, the time it takes to complete the process may not be in expectations with the users plans.  There is a fine design balance required when planning to run logic at the time of input, as opposed to running in a package or at specific times during the day.
    Hope this helps.

  • I already have installed miniSAP, can I install NetweaverPreview as well?

    I already have installed miniSAP (6.4), can I install NetweaverPreview as well?
    miniSAP uses sql server, what does the preview use?
    Viresh

    Exactly what miniSAP 6.40 have you already installed, the Java stack.  The new ABAP Sneak Preview runs on a MaxDB database. You have no choice as to what db the sneak preview will run on.

  • I do not have Elements.  Can I run Premier alone or with Photoshop 6 or CC

    A simple question, I do not have Elements and want to learn video.  Can I run Premier alone or with Photoshop 6 or CC?
    Thank for you help.
    Roy

    roy
    I am not clear how you want to carry out your plan to learn video.
    The Elements programs are Photoshop Elements (photo editor) and Premiere Elements (video editor). They are standalone products, and each comes with an Elements Organizer. When the same version for each of these programs is on that same computer, they share a common Elements Organizer catalog.
    When you have the same version Photoshop Elements as Premiere Elements on the same computer, there are some "integration" perks that come with that type of arrangement. I do not believe that Premiere Elements and Photoshop CS6 or CC will provide for these inegration perks.
    If you plan on going with Photoshop CS6 or CC (photo editing), why not learn your video on Premiere Pro CS6 or CC. These days these Pro versions can be looked at on a monthly basis with a small subscription. You can inquire with Adobe Sales on that type of detail.
    Avoid buying until after you have looked at the free tryouts to make sure the program is compatible with your computer environment and meets your video editing needs.
    Please consider.

  • ZTE Open C doesn't have root access after running unlock tool

    I've ordered a ZTE Open C from Ebay from UK, and I wanted to unlock the bootloader.
    I followed the instructions from here (http://en.comebuy.com/developer-firefox-os-open-c.html), installed the EU version (I've ordered the phone from Hungary), but if I boot into recovery mode, I still see that the recovery version is 0B04, however it should be 0B06, and the phone isn't rooted due to this (adb shell getprop ro.secure) command (it's said 0, and as far as I know, it means it doesn't rooted).
    I want to use android on the device, but now, I even can't install neither the kitkat nor the firefox rom (it said verifivation error) Could you help me how to install Kitkat on device with gapps?

    Hi Lukibeni,
    I understand that you tried to update your ZTE Open C from Ebay using the image provided on the Comebuy page, but that the update appears to have been unsuccessful.
    I would suggest attempting to download your image again, and go through the update process one more time.
    If the issue persists, you will need to contact ZTE for additional support. ZTE is the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) who created the device-specific build and update tools.
    Please let us know if the update process works the second time around.
    Thanks,

  • If I already have APEX installed can I install 10g Standard Edition too?

  • Previously purchased songs NOT showing as purchased in the itunes store. I dont want to re-buy something I already have. How can I get this fixed?

    Ive got quite a few songs. I dont want to rebuy one ive already got. Why are my songs not showing as purchased in store like they once did? How do I solve this issue?

    Hi,
    Go to song view, add iCloud status. To do this, go to menu > view > view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, duplicate, ineligible or waiting. As the scan is stalling with one track remaining, find this track - it is likely to have a icloud status of waiting.
    Suggest that you delete from library then select update iTunes Match. Once match completes try readding track - by the way how. Big is the track and whatever is its media type?

  • If I already have an XSAN, can I mount it as Windows Server Drive letter?

    I am Mac-familiar, but not well-versed in XSAN. If a customer says they have an XSAN, I presume that could be any number of storage devices across multiple platforms, that are organized and managed by XSAN software. Is that a correct analysis?
    Can I take that that (or part of that) available storage and make it available to a windows server 2008 environment so it shows up as a mounted drive letter?
    Thanks for your assistance!

    Your understanding of Xsan is kind of flawed. Xsan is a filesystem that clusters together fiber channel based storage. Xsan doesn't just manage the filesystem, it IS the filesystem. To make a volume be available on another platform/OS, that platform needs to have compatible software to support seeing see the file system on that storage.
    Xsan though is based on another product called StorNext by Quantum. They make a cheaper client only version of StorNext for connecting Windows and Linux machines to Apple based Xsans. It's called StorNext FX. You need to purchase a license for this though.

  • How can I run scripts in CP 8 on a timely bases.

    In CP 8 I want a script to run every second automaticaly, how can I do this?
    The reason for this is that I want the application that I build to check for the GeoLocation every second, so that the arrival at a location that is entered as a variable  can trigger an event (Go to Slide...).
    Now I have the cpInfoGeoLocation checked on Enter of the slide and on Click of a button. But would like it to happen automaticaly.

    Actually ... I had a great discussion with Suresh and the engineering team shortly before the release of Adobe Captivate 8 about just this topic.  The need to call a script on repeating basis is a huge need, and thanks to the great work of the engineering team - it was included in Captivate 8.  Here's how you do it - High level:
    1. Create a slide that you wish to loop on. (In your case this should be a 1 second slide.
    2. On EnterSlide event, store the current frame (cpInfoCurrentFrame) in a variable (call it whatever you like, startFrameSlideN should work)
    3. On Exitslide event, call a script - either an Advanced Action or a Shared Action that uses goToFrameAndPlay with the variable you used for the start  frame + 1 - the trick here is to set up this script to use decision points in sequence that ask your questions - if any of those conditions are met - call a goTo - navigation command and exit the slide loop.  If none of the decisionpoints are met, then simply let the final else (Only the final else) be the goToFrameAndPlay command that returns us to the start frame +1 of this slide.
    Now in earlier versions of Captivate (7 and below) this would not work. Because it would be interrupted and simply pass on to the next slide after one failed loop through all of the decision points.  But now this will loop infinitely - so be very sure that you include a  navigation button to let the user escape the slide loop - or you'll get permanent pause if the conditions are never met.
    I'll blog about this next week here: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/
    You could use this for some of the following (certainly loads of other things too.): 
    1. loop on a slide while comparing GPS to make a self-popping trigger when the learner walks / drives into a gps matching zone
    2. PUSH messaging.  Give cp a location where messages are stored - then if you add text to that messaging online text - it will get pushed to your application when the loop occurs.
    3. Dynamic update of course content - loop on a slide and load any variable
    Tons of other stuff i'm sure.

  • Can diadem run scripts in diadem

    I have a script writtem in Diadem that uses config files to load the data and then add it to a report. It then exports the report in a pdf format. I would like to run this script with labview so I can automate this when new log files are created.I have used the report template VI but I have csv files not signal files plus I want to be able to export the reports automatically

    Hi chandler,
    Don't give up on me just because you've tried the DIAdem Report.vi before and it didn't do what you needed.  Like I said, this example tricks the DIAdem Report.vi into doing things it wasn't designed to, like passing a CSV file path and calling a VBScript that can create a multipage report.
    The "DIAdem Report Script.TDMS" file is not a data file but rather a parameter transfer file from LabVIEW to DIAdem.  The DIAdem Report.vi does NOT have a data file path input, so this is how I'm tricking it into using one-- the VI writes all the info LabVIEW knows and the reporting DIAdem needs to know into this "DIAdem Report Script.TDMS" parameter transfer file.  Then when the "DIAdem Report Script.VBS" file is called, the first thing it does is loads the "DIAdem Report Script.TDMS" file and reads off those transfer parameters.  In this case what is being passed is just the file path of the data file-- in your case a CSV file.
    The DIAdem Report.vi DOES have an input for a REPORT file path, and if you wire up a file path to a VBScript file to that VI input, it will launch DIAdem and run the VBScript you wired up.  If that "DIAdem Report Script.VBS" then loads the "DIAdem Report Script.TDMS" file to read off the transfer parameters, then clears the Data Portal and loads the desired CSV data file (that was passed in the transfer parameter TDMS file), THEN calls your reporting VBScript with ScriptStart(), you should have what you want.
    This is a non-obvious architecture, but it is robust,

  • How can I run script every 10 minutes

    Hello ,
    I just wondering if oracle application server has a way to run a normal java class,servlet or JSP for every (for example) 10 minutes.
    I mean I want to automate a java class for a spesific time like running a script on UNIX using CRON JOB
    Regards

    Mr. user510124,
    Please try to be as specific as possible. Mr. Raghavendra has given you a very good solution, which you can use. Other possible solution would be to schedule it with crontab (Unix) or using Oracle Grid Control.

  • Adobe Photoshop cc 2014 I can't run scripts in html5!?

    I'm having some trouble migrating into the new html5 interface development. I immediately jumped from cs6 to cc 2014 and while I do realize that the extension builder for the latest cc suite has not yet been implemented yet. I really need to get used to this now. I've been able to get the panel up and buttons displayed; but, when I try to press the button to execute a JavaScript file like:
    var docRef = app.documents.add(120,220,72.0,"New Document", NewDocumentMode.RGB);
    It does nothing, I've tried the:
    alert("This is an alert message");
    and that pops up an alert message; but, when it comes to everything else, I can't seem to get it.
    Most of the tutorials I've searched for:
    A Short Guide to HTML5 Extensions | Adobe Developer Connection <-- CEP 4.0
    I can't figure it out! I am new to this and I need quick assistance on how I am able to do this.

    Thanks for the reply, I tried that but i wasn't able to get it to work. I also tried to see if l could using the
    function functionName()
    and I was still unable to.
    Silkrooster wrote:
    I haven't tried it yet, so i could be way off. But since you assigned it to a variable I would say it won't do anything until to call that variable. I would assume there must be a show command or similar that is needed for it to display.
    My experience is with actionscript and javascript but still I lean towards basic. I don't feel comfortable enough to say I am any higher yet as more experience is needed in my opinion.
    So feel free to take my advice with a grain of salt.
