Hook not being invoked!

[naveendennis]

I tried the "External Hooks" addon my Stash installation but doesn't matter what I do the hook(pre-receive) is not detected and the stash server rejects all pushes.

My hook simply has...

#!/bin/sh
echo "Hello World"

...and is present in the hooks directory inside my repository. In the executable field, I tried the following values "hooks/pre-receive.sh", "/hooks/pre-receive" and even the obsolute path in my PC but It is never triggered and the pushes are always rejected.

Am I missing something?

Do specify if you need more information.

Hi!

You forgot to add execution rights. That will help:

chmod +x /path/to/hook

[naveendennis]

Hi! Where should I add this permission? Should I do that in the script body?

[Anna Mihailovskaya]

Hello! At first, your executable (file with script) must be placed on stash-server. And as it names executable, you should give it proper rights. Then you provide hook-plugin path to that script.

I don't want to sound naive But this chmod +x /path/to/hook command is to be executed in Stash, right?

Also, the path that was mentioned. Is it an absolute path in the server or relative path in the server
