I want a run a script located on server 2 from server 1.

I am running this command line on server 1:

/home/user_x/keys.pem -t -t [email protected] sudo /home/gather/scripts/startTomcat6_nonroot.sh

Which give me this error:

/home/user_y/tomcat/bin/startup.sh: line 11: uname: command not found

Here is the snippet of this file on server 2 containing the uname command:

#!/bin/sh os400=false darwin=false #line bellow is number 11, the one failing case "`uname`" in CYGWIN*) cygwin=true;; OS400*) os400=true;; Darwin*) darwin=true;; esac

The most likely cause for this is a $PATH on server 2 that doesn't include uname; sanity check the environment variables when logged in under that user.

  • yes I think is the issue, do you know how to solve it? Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 21:59
  • @JeromeAnsia It depends completely on the system - you'll need to review the files that are manipulating $PATH to find whatever's breaking it and fix it. Examining what's in it will probably offer a clue. Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 22:00
  • K thank you Shane, a weird think also if I do "ssh -i /home/userx/keys.pem -t -t [email protected] 'uname'", it's working without trouble (got Linux) Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 22:03
  • @JeromeAnsia How about if you do sudo uname instead of just uname? Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 22:08

    @JeromeAnsia Actually, I've changed my mind - instead of trying to track down what's fiddling with $PATH, which might well be a needle in a haystack depending how much of a unique snowflake that server is, just change uname in your script to /bin/uname, so $PATH doesn't need to be accurate.
