Howdy. I have a bash called backup.sh script in /config and I’ve added the shell_command to configuration.yaml:

shell_command:
  backup: /root/config/backup.sh

I’m running HAOS, the shell script has the correct owner:group and permissions. I can execute the script when I ssh into HAOS, but when I call the Shell Command: backup service from HA’s Developer Tools, I get:

stderr: "/bin/sh: /root/config/gitupdate.sh: not found"
returncode: 127

Any thoughts on this?

    create a separate key and provide that public key to keep it separate from your user account.

    I agree this is a better method.

    I’m having trouble figuring out which user or container HA is using to execute the shell command. I docker exec -it homeassistant /bin/bash, ran ssh-keygen, and copied the pubkey into gitea, but it had no effect. I tried to run ssh-keygen in the hassio-cli container but ssh-keygen isn’t installed (so my assumption is that this isn’t a container that would do something that might need a key, because HA didn’t pre-load ssh-keygen - maybe I’m wrong). When I docker inspect the HA containers and grep for “User” or “UID”, there is no result.
