I've looked for a thread for the Executor addon and can't find one.

I've made a few scripts that use SSH to execute some commands on a remote linux box and run perfectly fine from the command line. When I try to execute the scripts from within XBMC with Executor they don't seem to run.

Examples...

Code:

#!/bin/bash
ssh 192.168.1.67 "vlc -vvv pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video0" :pvr-norm=pal :pvr-frequency=503250 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ps,dst=192.168.1.67:8080/tv.asf}' -Idummy"

Code:

#!/bin/bash
ssh 192.168.1.67 "killall -9 vlc"

Code:

#!/bin/bash
ssh 192.168.1.67 "sudo reboot"

I've set things up so a password isn't required, well, it isn't required from the command line, could this be the issue?

Have a look into Addon I do execute commands over ssh as well

The function is called OSrun and can be found here :

try using /bin/bash <script file>

try using /bin/bash <script file>

In what sense?

If I run /bin/bash <script file> from the command line the script works fine, it's executing it from within XBMC with Executor that fails.

When I say it fails, there's no errors on screen it's just that the action at the other end doesn't happen. The XBMC log says it was executed successfully.

Solved thanks to spiff whilst on the IRC Channel

You need to edit the progams.cfg file in /.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/plugin.program.executor/

Code:

[Script Name]
exec = /bin/bash /path.to.sript/script.sh
