Hi All ,

Lab: Creating your first shell script

I have created a shell script and added the commands ( PFA image ) . Still the task is failing. Can someone guide me as why this is failing ?

Thanks,
Rakesh

Hello, Raki3101
Have you still facing the issue?

#3

You need to read the instructions again, your script is named slightly differently to what it has asked you to create (you have added a bit that is not needed)

Thanks Rosarch. I got it what the mistake is. I need to save it as a command without .sh extension to the script.

Same lab not working for. Appreciate your help.

ob@caleston-lp10:~$ cat create-and-launch-rocketcat: create-and-launch-rocket: No such file or directory
bob@caleston-lp10:~$ cat create-and-launch-rocket.sh
cat: create-and-launch-rocket.sh: No such file or directory
bob@caleston-lp10:~$
bob@caleston-lp10:~$ echo $PATH/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
bob@caleston-lp10:~$ export PATH=$PATH:/home/bob
bob@caleston-lp10:~$ which create-and-launch-rocket
bob@caleston-lp10:~$ which create-and-launch-rocket

This lab is not working for me. I tried it couple of times per instruction. Appreciate your help.

Hello, @Jhasujay
I think you are doing wrong way. You have to use vi editor to write command into the file create-and-launch-rocket.
First you can create file with the touch command.

touch create-and-launch-rocket

then use vi editor.

vi create-and-launch-rocket

OR
You can use direct vi editor.

vi create-and-launch-rocket

Hope it will help.
