In your example above, it shows the problem. The temperature.sh script
gets
the $BBOSTYPE from the environment, not set anywhere. Also from your
example,
the exit code from the script is 1. That's the same exit code I get
when I run
the script manually, but it exits because $BBOSTYPE don't match. Look
near the
bottom of the temperature.sh script. I have to assume that you're
running Linux,
so why does temperature.sh, exit 1 when you run it?
Whether or not I have convinced you of the above issue, how does the
script
terminate with a status of 5 or 7, when it returns 1?
Thanks
