scripts/provision.sh and /home/vagrant/.bashrc

When I run scripts/provision.sh on the home linux box running Linux Mint, it works fine.

When I try to run it on a linux instance on Amazon, I am told:

-bash: /home/vagrant/.bashrc: No such file or directory

I asked two expert friends, and they were both baffled. The more knowledgable of them said "whether or not a vagrant user is created will be highly dependent on the packaging" and that "it depends on a user that 100% will not exist on anything that isn't a vagrant vm, unless said server is very weird" - when I told him that it worked on my mint machine at home (which I don't have access to until thursday), he insisted that I must have run a different script. Apparently vagrant is something to do with VMs?

So - can anyone tell me if it's possible to set up an Amazon EC2 instance and build Espruino on it, and if so, what incantations must be recited?

Thanks!

I’d be inclined agree with your friend, that you are running different scripts. Sure it was provision.sh and not vagrant_provision.sh?

As @ollie says, I don't think there's anything in scripts/provision.sh that'd try and access .bashrc - whereas vagrant_provision.sh does specifically reference /home/vagrant/.bashrc

What the hell... something went wrong in the git fork. My repo is WAY behind, using the version of the script from 2015... I wish I'd realized that was the problem.
