问题:

So apparently, I can't source a script if that script is in the current directory. For example,

# source some/dir/script.sh
Ok

works fine, but if I'm in the same dir as the script, it errors out:

# cd some/dir
# source script.sh
-sh: source: script.sh: file not found

What gives? Is the only way around this to change directory?

I'm using bash v4.2.10 on Angstrom Linux if that's relevant.

回答1:

Quoting the source man page:

source filename [arguments]

....

If filename does not contain a slash, file names in PATH are used to find the directory containing file- name.

So... source is trying to search your script.sh in the folders contained in PATH.

If you want to source a file in the current folder use

source ./script.sh

回答2:

Use an absolute path -- source /root/path/to/some/dir/script.sh -- should sort you.

This can happen when the file is in the wrong format. I FTP'd a Korn Shell script from Windows. I could edit it, but got "not found [No such file or directory]" when I tried to run it. It turned out it was in DOS format, which was indicated in the file name line when I edited it in vi. After I re-FTP'd it, making sure it was being transferred as ASCII, it ran fine.
