I am trying to execute a script on a remote machine in screen session using ssh. The command I use is:
ssh -t MYSERVER "cd tempdirXYZ; screen Myscript.sh"
When I execute this, I see a screen window for a few seconds displaying
cannot exec 'Myscript.sh': No such file or directory
I use bash on the remote machine and the script is placed in my ~/bin folder. It seems that when I run the above command, my bash files are not being sourced. I am not even sure if bash is run at all.
Is there any way to make this work without changing the command? The remote machine is running Ubuntu.
