I am trying to make a custom trigger for my shell/apple script file to run so I can just launch my dev environment at the push of a button. So basically:

  1. I have a shell script(and some apple script included) in ~ named start_server.sh which does 3 things:

    • start up solr server
    • start up memcached
    • start up script/server
  2. I have a saved quicksilver command(.qs) that opens up start_server.sh(so start_server.sh, then the action is "Run in Terminal")

  3. I created a custom trigger that calls this saved qs command.

I did that then tested it and it works. I then tried to double check it so I quit quicksilver and when I checked the triggers it just said: "Open (null)" as the action. I set the trigger again and when i restarted QS the same thing happened again. I don't know why but my old custom trigger to open terminal has worked since forever so why doesn't this one work?

Here's a screenie of the triggers after I restart QS: http://grab.by/4XWW

If you have any other suggestion on how to make a "push button" start for my server then please do so :) Thanks!

As an added note, I have already tried the steps on this thread but to no avail: http://groups.google.com/group/blacktree-quicksilver/browse_thread/thread/7b65ecf6625f8989
