How to execute a script in C?

[snowball179]

I need to execute a file named toplist (there is no extension) on my web server. I think that it is in C.

How do I execute it?

Thanks!

then make sure its executeable,you have the rights to execute it and type (inside the folder where the script is)


./scriptname


for the .sh script either:

./scriptname.sh

or:

sh scriptname.sh

1) Add header in your shell script: #!/bin/sh
2) chmod 755 filename.sh
3) filename.sh
