Issue/Introduction
The dr_validate script used as part of the data repository install or upgrade, is failing with the following message: "You must run this script in the BASH shell. Exiting...." After switching to the bash shell and running the script again, it still fails with the same message
Cause
The install is being run as a sudo user and the shell environment is not being loaded
Environment
All CAPM versions
Resolution
If you are running the dr_validate script as a sudo user then the shell environment must be loaded before running the script. The way to do that is simply to run sudo su - (or su -). After doing this, the dr_validate will proceed without giving the error about not being in the bash shell
