Question

If I run this script:

#!/bin/bash

PROJECT_PATH="/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo"
XCODE_PROJECT_FOLDER="${PROJECT_PATH}/CODE/APP/FOO_IOS"

echo ${PROJECT_PATH}
echo ${XCODE_PROJECT_FOLDER}

It displays:

/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo

/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo/CODE/APP/FOO_IOS

If I put the variables in another file, include it in the main script file, and run it:

test.sh

#!/bin/bash

. "/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo/ota.sh"

echo ${PROJECT_PATH}
echo ${XCODE_PROJECT_FOLDER}

/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo/ota.sh

#!/bin/bash

PROJECT_PATH="/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo"
XCODE_PROJECT_FOLDER="${PROJECT_PATH}/CODE/APP/FOO_IOS"

I have this output:

: command not found /Users/hudson/workspace/Foo/ota.sh: line 2:

/Users/hudson/workspace/Foo

/CODE/APP/FOO_IOSkspace/Foo

Any idea of where the problem could come from?

• If I put ota.sh in the same folder as test.sh, this works well
• If I don’t let a blank line between #!/bin/bash and the inclusion, I don’t get the : command not foundpace/Foo/ota.sh: line 2 message

Probably wrong/mixed unix/windows line endings, try to fix it with dos2unix.
