Your block.sh isn't a valid executable. It needs to start with a #! line or be executed by a shell explicitly.

I tried specifically calling it via bash, didn't work. Added a hashbang to the start of the shell script, see if that works.

I've tried a hell of a lot of wallet notifies so far, including, but not limited to:- blocknotify=/tmp/block.sh blocknotify="/tmp/block.sh" blocknotify=/home/bitcoin/block.sh "%s" blocknotify="/home/bitcoin/block.sh" "%s" blocknotify="/home/bitcoin/block.sh" %s blocknotify=/home/bitcoin/block.sh %s blocknotify="/bin/bash" "/home/bitcoin/block.sh" "%s" blocknotify="/bin/sh" "/home/bitcoin/block.sh" "%s" Running:- and initiating bitcoind again resulted in nothing new being dumped to journalctl.

Well, I worked it out. Apparently there was an error else-where in my config that was fucking everything up. Woohoo, non-useful error messages are non-useful. [bitcoin@steam ~]$ tail -f block.log 0000000000000000eeae3316441fa75980bb33da1ebec31d385dcd50b57e119f 000000000000000268d3f985177f9fbc1cce0bd80f5805e0f4be76de77119cf5 000000000000000197869993938d0de0428b6eada0ac84c3f31df9a516224e39 0000000000000002e05bba63e09de100aeed19f9b0b58342aecd87b8ca7e7598 000000000000000208bc53df9cdd467a506a11c2596fd452aa64e353262cdb48
For later reference, if someone is googling this, the issue was that "wallet" and "alert" notify were _APPARENTLY_ formatted incorrectly (despite looking okay when viewing 'em), once deleting those two entries everything works.

If you are specifying these parameters in the config file, don't use quotes, and do use an absolute path. Now that you've fixed the other issue!

Do not use an absolute path? Then, what's the current directory I'm in? The directory I run bitcoind from? $HOME/.bitcoin? I have issues even if I just do:- Which, isn't absolute, nor does it contain quotes, so, same issue.

Ok, wow... So do you specify this in the conf file blocknotify=/home/bitcoin/block.sh %s and in the block.sh file: not sure if I should use dh or bash and if I should call the .sh file direct or via blocknotify=/bin/sh /home/bitcoin/block.sh %s How are you doing this?
