According to one of the comments in the link you posted, the correct directory for this on a Debian, and therefore Ubuntu system, is /lib/systemd/system-sleep, not /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep.

Did you have to create the directory /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep, or was it there when you started?

Does the directory /lib/systemd/system-sleep exist? What happens if you put your script there?

Did you remember to set the execute attributes on the script?

Try adding the line
Code:
exec 2> /tmp/systemd_suspend_test_err.txt

to the beginning of your script. That should redirect trace output to the file /tmp/systemd_suspend_test_err.txt.

The script is in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/.

As per

Running scripts before and after suspend with systemd << Just another Linux geek

It also has the execute bit set.

I found this in syslog.

It seems odd. (The scripts also has no sh extension.)

Code:
Apr  2 06:03:48 7 systemd-sleep[5614]: /lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume.sh: 2: [: post: unexpected operator
Apr  2 06:03:48 7 systemd-sleep[5614]: /lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume.sh: 5: [: post: unexpected operator

Read Sampi's response:

Other users of Debian might want to take notice that the path to place the files under for that distribution is /lib/systemd/system-sleep/, i.e. without the initial /usr. Although this actually is properly documented with the correct path in the man page, it is a detail which is easy to miss.
So you should be using /lib/systemd/system-sleep/ as you are using Ubuntu, which is a Debian-based system. If you are not using Ubuntu, why are you posting to an Ubuntu sub forum?

Exactly what apmcd47 already said: /lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume.sh is not the same as /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume.sh and you are simply debugging the wrong script.

I hope this helps

I put script in correct directory.

No change.

I found this in that dir.

Format looks different.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
set -e

if [ "$2" = "hibernate" ] || [ "$2" = "hybrid-sleep" ]; then
    case "$1" in
        pre)
            /usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown --stop-only
            ;;
    esac
fi

I am not sure what that means: in post #6 you said your script is named /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume. You need to not only move it to another directory (which would make it /lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume) but also name it differently: /lib/systemd/system-sleep/On_Resume.sh Have you done both? If yes, there should at least be some message in /tmp/systemd_suspend_test_err.txt now, otherwise your script has most probably NOT run.

    esac
fi

It not only looks differently - it is! It does something completely different: first, this script expects TWO parameters, not just one. If the second is not "hibernate" or "hybrid-sleep", it does simply nothing at all. Second, this script is most probably run by a different shell: /bin/sh instead of bash. Depending on what /bin/sh links to (in Ubuntu perhaps dash) this will not be dash. Third, even if this script would do something (which is now, given the parameters with which you called the first script, unlikely) it would be something completely different from what the first script does.

I hope this helps.

I thought I posted that my problem was not setting the exe bit, but I could not find the post.

The script does run.

I added this, but it does not run.

I gave the full path.

Code:
/usr/bin/gxmessage -fg red -font  'sans 30' -timeout 3  'Back from being suspended.'
