Ok... this definitly falls into the category "weird"

Code:
login as: root
root@192.168.1.74's password:
Pascals-iPhone:~ root# cd /Applications/Debiant.app/
Pascals-iPhone:/Applications/Debiant.app root# ls
Default.png*   deinstall_disk.sh*     icon.png*   run.sh*
Info.plist*    deinstall_package.sh*  others/     xtractall.sh*
deinstall.sh*  extract.sh*            repack.sh*  yextractone.sh*
Pascals-iPhone:/Applications/Debiant.app root# ./run.sh
./run.sh: line 5:  9826 Illegal instruction: 4  sshpass -f /var/mobile/password.txt
mv: cannot stat `/var/mobile/*.deb': No such file or directory
Before:
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac.deb:        Debian binary package (format 2.0)
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac.deb.x:      directory
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Brc.deb:       Debian binary package (format 2.0)
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Brc.deb.x:     directory
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/CleanUP.deb:   Debian binary package (format 2.0)
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/CleanUP.deb.x: directory
After:
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac:          directory
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac.deb:      Debian binary package (format 2.0)
/var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Brc:         directory

drwxr-xr-x 4 root   mobile   136 May  5 01:21 /var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile 14924 Oct 16  2011 /var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Ac.deb
drwxr-xr-x 4 mobile staff    136 May  5 01:21 /var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Brc
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile  5582 Jan 15  2012 /var/mobile/Media/Downloads/Brc.deb

-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile 64264 Oct 20  2012 /var/mobile/Media/Downloads/CleanUP.deb

Looks good so far, right ?

After I do this and then execute ls again, alakazam:
Code:
Pascals-iPhone:/Applications/Debiant.app root# cd /var/mobile/Media/Downloads

Pascals-iPhone:/var/mobile/Media/Downloads root# ls -l
total 88
drwxrwxrwx 5 mobile mobile   170 May  5 01:25 Ac/
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile 14924 Oct 16  2011 Ac.deb*
drwxr-xr-x 4 root   mobile   136 May  5 01:25 Ac.deb.x/
drwxrwxrwx 5 mobile mobile   170 May  5 01:25 Brc/
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile  5582 Jan 15  2012 Brc.deb*
drwxr-xr-x 4 mobile staff    136 May  5 01:25 Brc.deb.x/
drwxrwxrwx 5 mobile mobile   170 May  5 01:25 CleanUP/
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mobile mobile 64264 Oct 20  2012 CleanUP.deb*
drwxr-xr-x 4 mobile mobile   136 May  5 01:25 CleanUP.deb.x/
Pascals-iPhone:/var/mobile/Media/Downloads root#

I don't get it...
the .deb.x appear after the script finished.

btw: I executed with "./run.sh" this time maybe thats better than exec ?


I GOT AN IDEA !
Perhaps the .deb.x cannot be moved as long as their ownership is root:mobile ? The writing permission are set to 755 (opposed to the newly "correct" folders).
Maybe a "sudo chown mobile:mobile" and a "sudo chmod 777" should be incooperated into the script ?
=> That could explain why the script won't do the move complete and the commandline does, as it is being executed as root ?
I don't know what your script DOES TO THE FOLDERS exactly.... however after it resolves the premissions are messed up

I tried the following, create the folders with the deb.x extension, chmod / chown them to have 777 and mobile:mobile permissions/ownerships

THEN

I paused the script and checked the files with a fileviewer, => the permissions were correct !

AFTERWARDS

I let the script continue and checked right after it finished: same as usual: two folders and the deb.x ones have the messed up permission.
Weird however is that I always need to reload my folderview in order to see those folders.
