Debian 7 Ssh Error: -bash: Apy-get: Command Not Found

I have tried installing a Ubuntu OS onto a partition (sda3).
When I had difficulties with the install, I decided to delete everything from the partition.

But now when I boot the computer, I get taken to the 'grub rescue' prompt.
I have tried to find grub in my other partitions (sda1 and sda2).
However, the command 'ls (hd0,msdos1)/' for example, does not show a grub directory.
It must've transferred grub to sda3 somehow and now I've deleted it.

I have debian live USB and am trying to install grub with:
Code:

apt-get install-grub /dev/sda

But I get the error message:
Code:

bash: grub-install: command not found

So now I don't know what's going on. Can anyone please help?

I have made a change to GRUB2 bootloader in etc/default/grub.
Now I need to run 'update grub' for the change to take effect.
However, the 'update grub' command on the terminal is giving this error message:
Code:

root@debian:/# update grub
bash: update: command not found

Can someone please explain why this command is no longer working?

I've had to make a change to grub because I tried to install a new distro which meant I had to alter grub.
The install wasn't successful so I deleted the grub file and then re-installed it.
The re-installed grub needs a change so I can get sound on my pc.
However, I can't add these changes because the 'update grub' command doesn't work.

I've checked the grub file with another debian distro and they are both the same.
So now I don't know if I need to check if a different grub file is the problem or anything else.
Can someone help?

Hi all,

Been reading on stdin, stdout and stderr and encounter 2 questions, hope gurus here can advise.

0 = stdin
1 = stdout
2 = stderr

Code:

Sun Dec 21 03:53:42 SGT 2014 > cat test5.sh
#!/bin/bash

echo "Please enter value for name :"
read name
echo "Your name is $name."

echo "Next echo will be a syntax error"
ehco

Code:

Sun Dec 21 03:53:46 SGT 2014 > test5.sh 1> output.txt 2> error.txt
Noob

Sun Dec 21 03:54:56 SGT 2014 > cat output.txt
Please enter value for name :
Your name is Noob.
Next echo will be a syntax error

Sun Dec 21 03:55:23 SGT 2014 > cat error.txt
/home/alan/scripts/test5.sh: line 8: ehco: command not found
Sun Dec 21 03:55:26 SGT 2014 >

Which so far all is good and the correct way to output everything including error to a single file is

Code:

Sun Dec 21 03:59:14 SGT 2014 > test5.sh > output.txt 2>&1

Q1) How is a command being interpreted in linux , the sequence in which it is interpreted ? from left to right ? right to left ?

Shouldn't it be

Code:

test5.sh 2>&1 1>output.txt 
or 
test5.sh 2>&1>output.txt ?

Regards,
Noob

I follow the URL to install awstats , the installation process seems successful .

http://thelinuxfaq.com/90-how-to-ins...os-fedora-rhel

But when I try to run the report by
Code:

http://192.168.0.1/awstats/awstats.pl?config=mydomain.com ,

it pops the error.

Code:

Not Found

The requested URL /awstats/awstats.pl was not found on this server.

then I create /awstats/awstats.pl in DocumentRoot directory , now when I re-try to run the report , it display the program code of the awstats.pl but not show the report , would advise what is wrong ?

I'm at the "install the base packages" of this guide. When I type in the # pacstrap /mnt base command I receive this error:

Code:

error: config parsing exceeded max recursion depth of 10.
==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root.

Any ideas what it is?

I'm trying to loop through a query in SQLDeveloper by passing the query a different Period and I'm having a problem getting the syntax correct.

Individually the following works correctly on its own:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
 for i in `seq -f "%02g" 1 5`;
    do
    echo $i
 done

$ ./test.sh
1
2
3
4
5

the following also executes correctly:

Quote:
sqlplus table1/$userpass@Mytable <<EOF
@./sqlcode.sql $i
EOF
but when I try to wrap the loop around my sqlplus command

Code:

#! /bin/sh
userpass=read
for i in `seq -f "%01g" 1 3`;
  do
        sqlplus -S  table1/$userpass@Mytable <<EOF
        @./sqlcode.sql $i
        EOF
done

I get the following error:

./test.sh: line 13: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Does anyone have any ideas on what's going on?

I have CentOS 7 64 bit. I have installed open-vm-tools on it.
I have installed vmplayer using
Code:

./VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle

Now when I try to open vmplayer on it, it does not load 'Virtual Network Device'
and shows error in terminal
Code:

Failed to build vmnet.  Failed to execute the build command.

When I check status of vmware, it shows
Code:

Module vmnet not loaded

If I try to run
Code:

vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

It gives me following error.
Code:

make: Leaving directory `/tmp/modconfig-2NfFeS/vmnet-only'
Unable to install all modules.

I am not able to open VMplayer, please help me to open it.

Thanks

Hi

When i run this command manually on Centos 6.6 it works:

Code:

/usr/bin/find /backup/ -type d -mtime +1 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf

but as a cron job it doesn't as i can see a folder with files there from Mar 28:

Code:

55 5 * * * /usr/bin/find /backup/ -type d -mtime +1 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf

And here are the logs from cron that it is executing this at the correct time :

Code:

Mar 30 05:55:01 server CROND[9526]: (root) CMD (/usr/bin/find /backup/ -type d -mtime +1 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf)

Any ideas why?

Thanks

System Info:

I have normal user in CentOS 7 whose name is "mostafa" (the name of the account).

I naturally have another user called root with all privileges. User "mostafa" is put into sudoers file, too.

The OS is installed in VmWare, so the system is all mine.

Problem:

Now I create a file with touch file.sh and put a command in it, but when I want to run it with Code:

sudo ./file.sh

, an error is shown that the command Code:

./file.sh

does not exist. But if I Code:

 sudo chmod 777 ./file.sh

then it gets run. My question is that, why should I use Code:

chmod 777

when I myself have created the file, and I am in sudoers.

Can anyone explain me why shuold I still use Code:

sudo chmod 777

when the creator of the file is me.
