Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I can sudo to a user and it exists. However, when trying to sudo to that user in a shell script it says user does not exist.
The command in the shell script is
su siebel -c "/siebel/Siebel_Enterprise_Server/Disk1/install/runInstaller.sh -silent -responseFile /config/sai.rsp -invPtrLoc /config/oraInst.loc -waitforcompletion -showProgress -oneclick"
In this command as soon as it reaches the su siebel it gives the error user does not exist. However when I do su siebel at command prompt I am able to su to siebel. I can also sudo su siebel with no password from command prompt.
What is going on here?
I have tried with different users and I get messages like, su: user xxxxx does not exist. However the user is in /etc/passwd and has a group in /etc/group. I periodically also see su: command not found and sudo: command not found.
What is causing this issue?
WHen i tired sudo -u siebel it gives me this error: /config/setup.sh: line 6: sudo: command not found
but from command line I can sudo:
[root@ build]# sudo su siebel

I only get the commands failing in the script from command line they work as expected.
I am executing shell script from command line as follows: ./build-all 17.0 registry.local.com:5000
sudo su

Please provide the command in question. And some code context. Ideally a small working example that demonstrates the problem. Don't leave us to assume what you might have entered.

If you are randomly getting "su: command not found" and "sudo: command not found" errors, it could just be that your computer is broken (e.g., your disk is failing).
