Security patch failage what did I do wrong?

[peskywinnets]

So I requested ssh access via my host...they granted me it.

I then ftp'ed the security patch to my server root directory.

I started up an ssh session (using putty),

I then entered the command....

 sh PATCH_SUPEE-5344_CE_1.8.0.0_v1-2015-02-10-08-10-38.sh

but got a few lines of errors...

PATCH_SUPEE-5344_CE_1.8.0.0_v1-2015-02-10-08-10-38.sh: line 25: wc: command not found

ERROR: "/app/etc/" must exist for proper tool work.

now to my untrained eye...it was a  fail?! (I've never patched like this before, so don't know what to expect)

What should I have done?

It failed.

You may have one of three issues.

The first issue is that the patch file is a shell script and can fail for the following reason.

In U/Linux, the line ending character is LF, in MSDOS/Windows, the line ending is a two character combination CRLF.

If the file got uploaded and the SFTP client uploaded it in binary mode instead of text mode, it may have been saved as an MSDOS file and will fail with a multitude of errors.

The file needs to be run through a utility called dos2unix to fix this issue. Available on SourceForge

The second issue is that the command which in that shell script looks for certain Linux command line utilities to make sure they are installed. Take care of the first issue and then post the errors occurring.

The third issue is that this patch must be executed out of the Magento root directory. This is the one that the app/ directory is in. You might already have it there, double check.
