Hello, please i’m having issue deploying to a digitalocean droplet (Ubuntu 16.04.3).

Please find below the error details:

Output of the command is shown above and the command executed
on that host is printed below for debugging purposes:

FAILED with exit status 255:

    current_shell="$0" || :
    [ -z "$current_shell" ] && current_shell="$SHELL"
    case "$current_shell" in
      (*bash*) echo 'bash is installed and the default shell'  ;;
      (*zsh*)  echo  'zsh is installed and the default shell'  ;;
      (*)
       echo
       echo "You are using an unsupported shell: '$current_shell'"
       echo "edeliver requires either bash or zsh to be installed"
       echo "and the default shell for the build user 'kehinde'"
       echo "on your build host: '46.101.30.23'."
       exit 1
       ;;
    esac
    set -e
    if [ ! -d /home/kehinde/app_name/builds ]
    then
      mkdir -p /home/kehinde/app_name/builds
      cd /home/kehinde/app_name/builds
      git init
      git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore
    else
      cd /home/kehinde/app_name/builds
      git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore
    fi

# /etc/shells: valid login shells

The shell used is the one defined for the user kehinde.

You could get this information on your server with…

$ cat /etc/passwd | grep kehinde

My bet is your deployement user is defined to use /bin/sh :slight_smile:

You can change this with

$ sudo usermod -s /bin/bash kehinde

If You have access to sudo.

Thanks immensely @kokolegorille.

The output of cat /etc/passwd | grep kehinde

kehinde:x:1001:1001:,,,:/home/kehinde:/bin/bash

I believe this output already shows that the default shell is /bin/bash.

Yes it does… the shell used is the last field

I am sorry, I have little experience with edeliver as I deploy manually.

But what I can tell is the user shell is ok, that would mean the rest is in error.

I cannot really help You, but I would try to run each commands separately, to check which one is failing.

Do you have git installed ? Edeliver adds your build machine as remote and uses the ssh protocol to push the source code of your app there. you can check that by running git remote -v show in you project directory after building on the build host. It shows something like that:

$ git remote -v show
$BUILD_USER@$BUILD_HOST $BUILD_USER@$BUILD_HOST:$BUILD_AT (fetch)
$BUILD_USER@$BUILD_HOST $BUILD_USER@$BUILD_HOST:$BUILD_AT (push)
origin git@your_remote(fetch)
origin git@your_remote(push)
