[Solved] Automated setup script not working

[thelonelycoder]

I'm trying to create an automated setup script. As a guide I'm going off of the entware-setup.sh script located in /usr/sbin/.
It all works very well so far but there's one thing that makes no sense to me.
If I name the file myscript-setup.sh it will throw all sorts of errors when I run it and will abort the setup.
Some errors look like this:

: not foundetup.sh: line 2:
: not foundetup.sh: line 9:
myscript-setup.sh: cd: line 11: can't cd to /tmp

Here's the curious thing: When renaming the file to entware-setup.sh the script runs just fine.
Do I need to reference some includes to make it run with a different name than entware-setup.sh ?

Very strange.

Those are the same messages you would get if you had DOS EOL characters in the file. Presumably you don't. Are you using a non-standard shell? Bash perhaps?

Working fine now, thanks Colin.
Overlooking the obvious. I have "Show EOL" enabled in Notepad++ and still missed that. I guess my eyes got so used to ignore those characters that I didn't see them. I wish I could blend the LF out and only show CRLF to make them stand out more.

BTW, dos2unix is now included in Asuswrt-Merlin, making it easier to convert foreign scripts.

Thanks, that'll help as well to sanitize input.

@RMerlin is dos2unix only included in the 380.57 alpha or do I have a blind eye in the 378.56_2 release and cannot find it?

It should be in 378.56_2, unless for some reason that commit didn't make the cut when I build the release firmware.

Not on the RT-AC66U build.
I have my RT-AC87U on the 380 alpha and dos2unix is on it.
