Mental Blockage

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

trying to run a .php script (on the same server) using a .sh script.

 

I thought it was something like

#!/bin/bash
curl "http://www.domain.com/script.php"

 

but it's saying "curl command not found" - but curl is on the server.. Mental blockage as I've done something similar before - any help?

 

Many thanks

There is different switches to wget just as there are different switches to curl. I was posting a simple example.

 

You on the other hand where not giving us all the information needed to help you.

 

Now I suggest you look up the man pages for wget and curl and go from there.

Sounds like you aren't using the absolute path to curl.  Try:

/usr/bin/curl

instead of just curl.

 

The reason for this is since you just a shebang in your script, it isn't importing the PATH variable correctly.  This will fix the "command not found" issue anyways- I'm not getting into whether curl or wget is the best way to do what you're trying to do.
