Especially in the case of writing shell scripts. It’s imperative to move from CRLF (Win) to LF (*nix) so they will run.

Try this:

$ dos2unix FILE_NAME.EXT

if that doesn’t work, then try this.

$ sed -i 's/\r$//' FILE_NAME.EXT

Also, make sure you’ve set the permission bits so they can execute.

$ chmod 770 FILE_NAME.EXT
