trying to put in a simple unrar script on my unraid server.

#!/bin/bash
#
# Script to unpack tv downloads using unrar.
# assumed that tv downloads are in their own directory.
#
#

LOG_DIR="/mnt/cache/.torrents/log"
LOG_FILE="unrarscript.log"
TMPLOG="$(mktemp)" || return

echo -e "---------------------------------------------------------------------------" > $TMPLOG # restart temp log file.
echo -e "[ `date` ] Post download Script started..." >> $TMPLOG
echo -e "<BR>" >> $TMPLOG
echo -e "Extracting tv shows from archives..." >> $TMPLOG

cd /mnt/cache/.torrents/downloads/tv

# execute unrar command.
unrar e -r -o- *.rar >> $TMPLOG

echo -e "[ `date` ] Post download Script complete." >> $TMPLOG
echo -e "---------------------------------------------------------------------------" >> $TMPLOG # complete log file.

# Mail $TMPLOG to root
mail -s "Subject: UnRAR" root < $TMPLOG

# Append temp log to log file
echo $TMPLOG >> /mnt/cache/.torrents/log/tvunrarlog.log

 

returns bad method ^M errors. using ViM editor.

in the editor, type

:set list

then delete the carriage-returns you have at the ends of the lines and save the file.  (they will be visible as "^M")
