Addon won't start

[sdrasmussen]

I have what is probably a simple problem, but no idea what do do about it. When I try to start the addon, I get the following message in the logs:

/bin/sh: /rtl2mqtt.sh: not found

I did copy rtl2mqtt.sh to the directory config/rtl4332mqtt as the directions specify, but no joy. Any idea how to figure out what I did wrong?

Hm that's strange. Any chance your file browser added a hidden file extension to your .sh file?

[sdrasmussen]

well, that would be a neat trick, for a browser to add an extension to a file from a CLI...so, the answer is no.

Oh almost forgot...another guy on Discord, cogneato, installed it and gets the same exact error.

Hi,
I experienced the same issue using a rtl2mqtt.sh file created on a windows 10 PC and then uploaded via samba share.
Solved downloading the rtl2mqtt.sh file directly on hassio (using an ssh session) with:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/james-fry/hassio-addons/master/rtl4332mqtt/rtl2mqtt.sh

Hope this help you!

@davtes77 has it correct.
I recently needed to reinstall the addon and I needed to create the file via ssh.
Even creating it via the VS code (editor) HASSIO addon didnt work.

[james-fry]

I have no idea why copying the script via samba does not work but creating via scp or direct on hassio via editor does work.
As a workaround I added info to the repo readme.

I just experienced this and figured out the file was saved with CRLF (MSDOS) encoding.
Once the extraneous carriage returns had been removed, it worked fine.

To test for this, use the home assistant terminal and try running the script; you'll get a 'bad interpreter' warning.

(yeah, I know this is an old and closed issue, but I figured if I ended up here looking for a solution, others might also)
