RE: Hook Script problem with no error output

I haven't seen any hook scripts that have a return 0 at the end. I am just trying to make a shell script that will do an echo and send it to a /tmp file. My main goal is to do a post-commit script that will do an svn update. I've tried the following two lines: #!/bin/sh/usr/local/bin/svn update /usr/home/virtual/user1/html/ --username apache --password SVNPASS 2>&1 >> /tmp/svn-post-commit.log The username apache is not a real unix account, it's just an svn account located in myrepo/conf/passwd.My /usr/home/virtual/user1/html dir is recursively owned temporary by the svn user just so I can make my script work without problems/sudo etc. This script works perfect it somebody runs it individually, even the user1 has access to execute but it doesn't work on commit. I have also tried to chmod 777 the script and chmod +s but unfortunately that didn't make any difference. So since I couldn't make the svn update script to work, I am just trying to do a simple echo in a /tmp file, but that doesn't work either.I am out of ideas for tonight, I will try again tomorrow to see if I will have a better luck.

did you put a "return 0" at the end of your script

I don't understand, do you mean to send my echo command to stderr ?Something like /bin/echo "Script is running" >&2 >> /tmp/svn-test.log ?I have tried that and it didn't work.
