Script Error - JAMF tmp command not found

[IamZeus]

Hi,

Please I need some assistance, I have had this issue for a while now.

I have 2 policies running a script

the 1st policy modifies a plist via the script and 2nd policy downloads and installs a package using curl and they both have the same issue.

This is the error I'm getting

Error from policy 1

Script result: /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/New Follow Print Plist: line 4: -u: command not found
/Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/New Follow Print Plist: line 7: /Users/patsnous/Library/Application\ Support/hcpclient/hcpclient.plist: No such file or directory 2022-03-07 08:37:41.105 defaults[61211:847827] Domain /Users/user/Library/Application\ Support/hcpclient/hcpclient.plist does not exist

Error from policy 2
curl: (23) Failed writing body (0 != 1388) tar: Error opening archive: Failed to open 'elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz' /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/Elastic Agent: line 11: cd: elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64: No such file or directory /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/Elastic Agent: line 13: ./elastic-agent: No such file or directory /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/Elastic Agent: line 15: elastic-agent: command not found

It would help to see the scripts that are running to better understand the error messages.

@IamZeus For the first one, it doesn't look like you call $result anywhere so I would just delete the line defining result (line 4) and I would remove the double quotes around the file path on line 7.  If you are going to keep the quotes, then you will have to remove the \ after Application. Same thing with the last line defaults read.....

#!/bin/bash
 
logged_in_user=$(/usr/sbin/scutil <<< "show State:/Users/ConsoleUser" | awk '/Name :/ && ! /loginwindow/ {print $3}')

cat << EOF > /Users/$logged_in_user/Library/Application\ Support/hcpclient/hcpclient.plist

For the second one, I would write the file to the /tmp directory using -o and when using the cd command use the full path to the directory.  Also with calling the ./elastic command, use the full path as well.

#!/bin/bash
curl -L https://xxx.elastic.xxx/downloads/xxx/elastic-agent/elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz -o /private/tmp/elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz
tar -xzvf /private/tmp/elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz

cd /private/tmp/elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64

/private/tmp/elastic-agent-7.16.3-darwin-x86_64/elastic-agent install --force --url=https://xxxxxxxxxxxx.fleet.eu-west-2.aws.cloud.es.io:443 --enrollment-token=XXXXXXXXXX==

elastic-agent status

Give those a shot.

Hi @DBrowning , thank you for your help, plist script appears to work now.

Im getting this new error for the elastic agent script, unable to create directory, could it be a permission issue?
