in misc/cron/archive.sh line 26:
PIWIK_CRON_FOLDER=dirname $(readlink -f ${0})
Gives an error:
readlink: illegal option -- f
usage: readlink [file ...
usage: dirname string
Testing readlink on Scientific Linux SL release 5.3
readlink -f /path/to/file
also gives an error
readlink: Need exactly one argument.
Try `readlink --help' for more information.

man readlink says:
'When invoked as readlink, only the target of the symbolic link is
printed. If the given argument is not a symbolic link, readlink will
print nothing and exit with an error.'
I've changed it to
PIWIK_CRON_FOLDER=dirname ${0}
To make my local version work
act_path() {
local pathname="$1"
readlink -f "$pathname" 2>/dev/null || \
realpath "$pathname" 2>/dev/null || \
type -P "$pathname" 2>/dev/null
}
ARCHIVE=`act_path ${0}`
PIWIK_CRON_FOLDER=`dirname ${ARCHIVE}`
The above works for me on FreeBSD and Scientific Linux SL
ogs22, do you think you could submit a version that works on freebsd-SL linux and on debian/other linux? it would be very useful. Thanks
Sorry yes I should have said the above code should work on any Linux version the original code worked on as it tries the readlink -f first.
I'll attach the modified archive.sh
ogs22, could you post a diff instead of the full file please? thx
In [1568], fixes #1033 - archive.sh patch; thanks ogs22
