Hi, I'm a complete novice to Linux and UNIX. I'm having trouble getting a script to execute properly. I did a similar script earlier in the semester with no problems. For whatever reason I can't get this one to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm completely lost and frustrated at this point!I apologize in advance if I don't use proper terms, I'm not familiar with all the technical jargon yet!
I created a script using vi, named filepro
This is the format we need to use:
I made it executable with:
Everything appears to be to be correct
When I type in filepro I get:
No matter what I select 1-3
I get an error message:
I’ve tried adding and removing spaces in the main menu. I tried #!bin/bash, #!bin/sh. Adding and removing space between cat <<.
This is obviously a simple straight forward script. But I can’t seem to get it right. Please help. Thanks!
