Hi, thanks for this enhancement. Can you please have a try if the install.sh of the actual master branch is working on MacOS?

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply. It looks like the syntax is a bit off:

### Checking archive files for existence, readability and integrity.

automysqlbackup ... exists and is readable ... ./install.sh: line 433: =md5 -r: command not found
md5sum okay :)
automysqlbackup.conf ... exists and is readable ... ./install.sh: line 433: =md5 -r: command not found
md5sum okay :)
README ... exists and is readable ... ./install.sh: line 433: =md5 -r: command not found
md5sum okay :)
LICENSE ... exists and is readable ... ./install.sh: line 433: =md5 -r: command not found
md5sum okay :)

I don't know where the = is coming from. Here is the first few lines from bash -x install.sh:

+ echo '### Checking archive files for existence, readability and integrity.'
### Checking archive files for existence, readability and integrity.
+ echo

+ precheck_files=(automysqlbackup 31e3b0fe937af7ba3c4015543cd2a848 automysqlbackup.conf b70bc8a814400cf41b8e6228d7bbc963 README b17740fcd3a5f8579b907a42249a83cd LICENSE 39bba7d2cf0ba1036f2a6e2be52fe3f0)
+ n=4
+ i=0
+ '[' 0 -lt 4 ']'
+ printf 'automysqlbackup ... '
automysqlbackup ... + '[' -r automysqlbackup ']'
+ printf 'exists and is readable ... '
exists and is readable ... + [[ darwin17 == \l\i\n\u\x\-\g\n\u ]]
+ [[ darwin17 == \d\a\r\w\i\n* ]]
+ '=md5 -r'
install.sh: line 433: =md5 -r: command not found
+ echo '31e3b0fe937af7ba3c4015543cd2a848  automysqlbackup'
+ printf 'md5sum okay :)\n'
md5sum okay :)
…

I found the problem. These lines:

$MD5_CHECK="…"

should be

MD5_CHECK="…"

I also noticed md5sum is used in the automysqlbackup script, so they should be changed there as well. Maybe MD5_CHECK should be added as a variable in the conf file when the user runs install.sh. Then automysqlbackup can just run whatever MD5_CHECK is set to.

Can you please check the master if it's working in the master? If so I'll release a new version.

Thanks again.

It got past the errors this time, but I just realized that md5 -r isn't equivalent to md5sum --check, only md5sum. There is no built-in checking option in md5. So if I modify the files, it will always return 0. :-(

Sorry, this is looking like a lot more work than I thought it would be. I can just manually modify the script for now.

This is happening on Linux with the newly released 3.0.6 :

tmp/AutoMySQLBackup-3.0.6# ./install.sh

Checking archive files for existence, readability and integrity.

automysqlbackup ... exists and is readable ... md5sum failed :(

grep 'precheck_files=( automysqlbackup' install.sh
precheck_files=( automysqlbackup 880dca1b4cfe3ac0513561af0e254dd0

md5sum automysqlbackup
39af0eec980be69523e3f93cf9e282d0 automysqlbackup

Yeah, md5's are currently not matching with what is on master. I'd suggest removing the md5 check, if the files come from a git checkout, one can be reasonably sure that they are alright.

@silverwind You're right, I've removed the md5 check. Would you like to try the install.sh from the new master again?

Looking good. I think you can resolve this issue.
