Re: startup script - bad interpreter: No such file or directory

In that case, run the script like this:

sh -xv <path to script> |tee logfile

Then check the logfile to see the play by play.

Some editors are nice enough to hide the "^M" problem, but interpreters are
not so forgiving, concerned as they are with a rigorous literal interpretation
of the script. The following command will verify the proper format:

od -c <path to script>

and check that "\n" occurs without an accompanying "\r"
