I think you already know that -
- the environment that the hook script runs in is empty (there's
no PATH defined)
- the hook script may not run as the user you expect
I usually use brute force to debug hook scripts -
- define a log file
- for selected/every command 'cmd' in the hook script redirect all
output to the log file
- put messages in the log file with echo
so the hook script might contain debugging code like this -
LOG=/tmp/hook.log
/usr/bin/whoami >> $LOG 2>&1
/bin/echo "about to execute cmd" >> $LOG 2>&1
cmd >> $LOG 2>&1
/bin/echo "finished cmd" >> $LOG 2>&1
Then on the server
$ tail -f /tmp/hook.log
Then on the client commit something
When debugging I'm always surprised by what I see/don't see in the
log file :-)
Hope this helps.
Tim.
