Ubuntu unable to edit command.json (gets overwritten)
-
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and trying to edit the command.json file. If I do and triggercmd is running (it's a headless server, triggercmd runs as a service) the edits don't persist. If I stop the service and edit the file it's fine, until I start the triggercmd service again and then it changes the file to what it was prior to the edit.
Any help would be appreciated, I can't figure out how to get any changes to persist.

@rktdno, the agent keeps a backup of the commands.json file, and whenever it finds invalid json in the commands.json file, it restores the backup.
You could copy/paste your json into an online json parser like this one to check your syntax:
https://jsonformatter.org/json-parserSometimes it's just a comma at the end of the last entry, or maybe you're not escaping some quotes in a command.

@Russ Thanks for that. Indeed, beaten by the comma. Thanks for the help.
