Take the following script:
if [ foo == foo ]; then echo foo is foo fi if [ foo == bar ]; then echo foo is bar fi When I run this from the Linux command line, I get: foo is foo When I add "#!/bin/bash -ex" as a shebang, I get the expected line dump plus the "foo is foo" line. When I make this an "execute shell" build step, and run that step on a linux slave, I get: [bash hard bracket test] $ /bin/sh -xe /tmp/hudson942109571990858458.sh + [ foo == foo ] /tmp/hudson942109571990858458.sh: 2: [: foo: unexpected operator + [ foo == bar ] /tmp/hudson942109571990858458.sh: 6: [: foo: unexpected operator When I add a "#!/bin/bash" to the step as a shebang, I just get the expected "foo is foo" line. And if I add a "#!/bin/bash -ex" shebang to the step, I get the same thing that I get when running the script with the shebang from the command line. In any case, whenever I run this as a build, the SHELL environment variable is "/bin/bash" Why does running a shell step without a shebang behave differently than it does with a "#!/bin/bash -ex" shebang? Exactly what is being run without a shebang?
