But I was using this technique to restore cfengine config if an update breaks it (similar to the way Neil describes invoking cf-failsafe.sh if cf-serverd fails to start, see http://watson-wilson.ca/blog/cf3-tutorial.html). I've been using the same technique for cf-execd, too; basically anything that tries to restart after an update and fails. And, I've been seeing that same error: Q: ...n/cf-execd || /": Unexpected argument with no preceding option: || Is there a better way (a way that doesn't throw errors) to invoke a script to restore cfengine config in case an update breaks it? _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
