I am running a bourne shell script from a service script.

When I check $env from my #!/bin/sh script started by script the user is ROOT and path is [/]

Is there a way to pass the env of the logged in user to the shell script from the service?

Is there some decent way to handle it so that I can get the currently logged in user and not an empty env with root user?

These aren't startup scripts; the system will need to be up, running and a user needs to be logged in before these scripts will ever be called. – user1610950 Jan 14 '18 at 01:26
