Why does this piece of script work on a Solaris 10 test.sh script but if I include it in the request script of packaging generates errors?
In the request script it stops at read -e:
-n Do you want to configure Cache Manager? [Y/N]
/var/tmp//installe5aOBQ/checkinstallh5aOBQ: -e: is not an identifier
pkgadd: ERROR: request script did not complete successfully
If I replace "read -e -n 1" with simple read I get
/var/tmp//install0UaOMQ/checkinstall3UaOMQ: test: argument expected
pkgadd: ERROR: request script did not complete successfully
Do you want to configure Cache Manager? [Y/N] /var/tmp//installltaiLW/checkinstallotaiLW: -sn1: is not an identifier
pkgadd: ERROR: request script did not complete successfully
Why don't the read parameters work properly ? I have same with read -e , read -n 1, etc.

In the scripts I use #!/bin/bash
The request script I use in the package is pretty long. I refer only to this section as it is not related to nothing before.
So if I run it separate it works.
If I run it in the request script:
1. I have to delete read parameters -e -n 1 as they generate errors
2. Then I get
/var/tmp//install59a41W/checkinstall89a41W: test: argument expected
pkgadd: ERROR: request script did not complete successfully
bash-3.00# cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
until [ -n "$CONFIGCACHE" ] && [ -n "$prompt" ] && [ -z `echo $CONFIGCACHE | sed -e 's/[YN]//g' ` ]
do
echo -n "Do you want to configure Cache Manager? [Y/N] "
read -e -n 1 CONFIGCACHE
echo ""
prompt=1
done
bash-3.00# ./test.sh
