Cannot run a script as root user

Dear all,

I am facing an issue while I try to run the appian status.sh script as root user despite the ownership is root.

I am getting the following error:

ERROR: JAVA_HOME is not set and no 'java' command could be found in your PATH.

Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation.

Any idea of how I can run it as root?

Thanks beforehand.

Kind regards,

Brainy

Did you try to google the error message? There seems to be a good post in Stackoverflow

I think this is not related to whether you work as root user or not.

I did, but I am working with Red Hat not Windows nor Ubuntu

I can run the script when I log as my other user but not root.

OK, but setting an environment variable for your user ist similar to any other Linux.

BTW, working as root is not considered a best practice.
