Startup script stopped working about wordpress-linux-appservice

[rabollin]

@emmigereb - looking into the issue on priority.

[emmigereb]

@rabollin when do you think we can expect a solution? We have clients with multisite and they can´t log in to their sub site ac the nginx setting is not working. How do we solve this?

[rabollin]

@emmigereb - We are debugging this issue right now and need some time to understand the root cause. Can you please share the PHP version being used on those websites.

@emmigereb I have just tested the startup scripts, and it seems to be working fine. Can you please validate the logic in your startup script? Did you happen to change it recently, or maybe it got updated mistakenly?

Can you please run the script directly from WebSSH/SSH console using the below command?
bash /home/dev/startup.sh

[emmigereb]

@ZubaeyrMSFT i have this in startup.sh:

cp /home/nginx-default.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
/usr/sbin/nginx -s reload

But when i run bash /home/dev/startup.sh i get this:
"ginx: invalid option: "-s reload

The script is according to this page https://github.com/Azure/wordpress-linux-appservice/blob/main/WordPress/running_post_startup_scripts.md and we have not changed it lately and before it was working.

So, it looks like there is some syntax issue in the script. Would it be possible to share your script file? Does it contain only those two commands?

[emmigereb]

@ZubaeyrMSFT here is the startup.sh file
startup.sh.txt

[ZubaeyrMSFT]

@emmigereb

1. I see that there is a .txt extension to this file name. It should be simply startup.sh, not startup.sh.txt. There should be a file in /home/dev folder without txt extension. Please check.
2. Also, I hope /home/nginx-default.conf file exists.

@ZubaeyrMSFT

1. I can´t upload .sh to github file so I added .txt. Of course is just startup.sh
2. Yes /home/nginx-default.conf exists 😊 and as i said before it worked nicely until a couple of days ago.

[emmigereb]

@ZubaeyrMSFT or @rabollin we really need this to get working for the client today. Is there anything else you can do to help us?

[rabollin]

Can we get on to a call @emmigereb ; a working session will help to resolve this issue.

[emmigereb]

@rabollin absolutely. Can you use emmi.gereb[at]softronic.se to book a teams meeting?

[rabollin]

Does 9 PM IST works for you?

[emmigereb]

It works thank you.

[ZubaeyrMSFT]

Closing the issue as it has been resolved.

The issue was due to the special ^M carriage-return character added at end of each line. This was because the file was edited in DOS/Windows OS, whereas in Linux OS end-of-line is marked by a single newline.
