Bash file problem

[vexx]

OK, I've created a sh file to delete a cache folder for one of my sites. Basically, the bash looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
rm -fdr cached*
mkdir cached
chmod 0777 cached

When I launch it within the console (root), it does not delete the cached folder and when I "ls -l", I always find another folder called "cached\r".

The cached folder has 0777 permissions all the time, owner root, group root.

The funny part is, I have another site, on the same server, different account and this bash works perfectly.

If I run the commands individually from the console, works perfectly...

I'm puzzled

Hi

Is the script running in the same directory as the "cached" file?

Does the script run via a cron job?

[vexx]

no..i launch the script with the "sh file.sh" command.

the sh file is in root with all the folders, including "cached"

Try running the script with sh -x
sh -x file.sh

This will output the process to the console so it can be checked for errors.

or run diff to compare the two script.

diff /path/to/working/script path/to/non-working/script
