pre-receive and post-receive hook not working

Question

Tried creating a pre and post receive hook in bitBucket 5.2.2 instance but its not working on doing one commit to that repo.

I am just trying to create one txt file in that hook...

echo text in this file > bla.txt
echo test.

I am following this link help url

here, they said that if hook does not works then set isExecutable in application.xml file to true. but in my Bitbucket installation dir, there is no such file at BITBUCKET_HOME/logs/support

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the reply. I tried with chmod command

(chomod -R a+x *) using Git bash to make those files executable ... and now its working.

Hey,

If you are an administrator, you can modify and or check the file permissions to ensure that the user running Bitbucket has the necessary permissions such as Read & Execute.

Go to the file and right-click. Select Properties and then select the Security tab. Selecting each user should display the permissions that user has in the lower window.

If you are unfamiliar with verifying permissions in Windows, I recommend having your network administrator or server system administrator to assist you with verification.
