Shell Scripts not running after Server upgrade to 8.7.1

Looks like your script has been saved as an rtf file instead of a txt file.

These are the same files that were on the server prior to the JSS upgrade. I am not sure how the formatting would have changed.

Well each line of the error log you posted looks like it's trying to parse HTML instead of text. Someone doing some editing and saving over the top accidentally in rtf format is pretty likely. I've sadly seen this before.

Thanks franton. I don't think anyone else has saved over the files because the modified date has not changed or anything. Hmph. I will try re-iploading the scripts through Casper Admin and see if that makes a difference.

Before you do that, load the scripts into an editor such as TextWrangler directly off your distribution point. Resave as txt and see if that helps. You're right that the JSS upgrade would not have caused this. I would suspect human error elsewhere.

When I load it off of the distribution point it shows up as a .sh not txt, which is expected (on my mac). Same thing for on the Windows Server it is hosted on.

That's not quite what I meant. Shell scripts are normally plain text. However the .sh extension is just that, a file extension.

It is pretty much every shell script on the server that tries to run with this new JSS that is giving me these same errors:

are you using http to deliver the scripts or is it mounting the distribution point via afp/smb?
perhaps look at your policy and try forcing it to use afp/smb

This is a JSS running on a Windows Server 2008 R2. The distribution points are using SMB.
