#433 closed Defect (wontfix)

Added #!/bin/sh to binstall.sh to help Konqueror know it is a script and not a text file

Description (last modified by Nicolas)

There are 3 things I noticed that help Linux KDE Konqueror realize that run_manager is a script and not a text file (if you click the link).

  1. the run_manager script needs to be marked as executable +x
  1. The text file needs to begin with $!/bin/sh
  1. The file appears to work if it ends in .sh

This diff file does #2 but not #3 since you probably have a lot of help-info referring to run_client and run_manager and not run_client.sh and run_manager.sh If you want to do #3 as well, I leave that to you depending on your experience.

KDE Konqueror referred to here would be including version 3.5.6 found in Mandriva 2007. Newer distros will/may likely have better knowledge and perhaps this diff file might not be necessary for them.

I explained the !bin/sh for Konqueror as step#6 on my HowTo? in case this doesn't get fixed in source ....to help users past this problem in the meantime. :-) http://www.joescat.com/boinc/index.html#OPEN
