batch mode in linux

orbara

Hello
I've done a script *.sha, with the suite and bat files. It runs well in windows but I would like to run it in Linux.
The script *.sha manually runs very well but when I run it in batch mode with *.suite and *.sh files it doesn't work

Can I run in mode batch in Linux?

Thanks you for an answer
Best regards

Orbara,

Yes you can run it on Linux.
These could be the possible reasons for it not working.

1) The shell script is not working because it has windows ctrl-M characters in it: Run dos2unix on that file or manually edit that file and delete and re-add line breaks.

2) The shell script is working but the browser does not open properly: Check the path of the browser executable in your shell script. (It may be /path/to/firefox-bin. You could look at the properties of the browser shortcut on the desktop)

3) The browser opens but does not close properly: Open sahi.properties and comment the existing processhelper lines and uncomment those for linux, so that it looks like this:

#processhelper.pid_list_cmd=tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq $imageName" /NH /FO TABLE
#processhelper.pid_list_pid_column_no=2
#processhelper.pid_kill_cmd=taskkill /PID $pid

#Use these for linux
processhelper.pid_list_cmd=ps -ef | grep $imageName
processhelper.pid_column_no=2
processhelper.pid_kill_cmd=kill -9 $pid

4) I am not very sure about this, but as a precaution, keep the extension of Sahi files as .sah (Ignore if this was just a typo in your post.)

If all this does not seem to work for you, post the shell script and the errors that you see on the Sahi console (from where you ran sahi.sh) .

"Thanks a lot for your help !

The batch mode in Linux works perfectly, putting like you have told me:

"in linux $threadNo was being replaced with a blank string since its value was undefined. You need to escape that $ with a back slash (\) in your suiterunner.sh file ".
So the sh file should now look like:

java -cp ../lib/ant-sahi.jar net.sf.sahi.test.TestRunner ../scripts/my_site.suite
   "/usr/bin/firefox" http://www.myurl.com default localhost 9999 3 
   firefox "-profile ../browser/ff/profiles/sahi\$threadNo -no-remote"

Thanks a lot! - you can close this topic
