usually means the first line of that shell script is bad....
probably a non-existent /bin/sh if it was #!/bin/sh
or you have dos vs unix issues
cp install.wp /tmp
vi /tmp/install.wp
- put a crlf as the last line
/tmp/install.wp
- should work
you probably wanna tr that file...
sh isntall.wp should work too
except you still have tons of ^M instead of crlf
c ya
