Your line endings should be consistent (on my Windows servers I use CRLF). Since you are on Windows, a program like Notepad++ can quickly help you find problems like that. Not just notepad ++ in windows, but we can do the same in Linux as well though not through notepad++ . The good old vim (which is a part of most modern linux distribution and far more efficient than notepad++) can show that. Start vim like this. Vim –b <filename> And it will show the non printable characters in your file. Then there is this versatile unix2dos and dos2unix which will convert the file endings accordingly. This is useful if you worked on files windows environment and then transferred it to Linux. This what most inexperienced in using unix developer or sys admin (windows sys admin now forced to take care of *nix ) mostly do. HTH --ashwin |
