[Q] ADB shell commands in .bat - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am on aospCM's rom for my Hero and as such the market has some problems. To fix it, s0be found a way to do it. The commands are such:
1. adb shell
2. su
3. mkdir /cache/download
4. chown system:cache /cache/download
5. chmod ug+rwx /cache/download
6. chmod a+x /cache/download
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't need step 3 since the directory exists.
Since I am flashing nightlies (or near nightlies as the case may be) typing all of these commands gets super tedious. I figured there has to be a way to do this in a .bat from Windows.
I have adb worked into my system shell (did this so I could use the SendTo menu to push to my phone) and I came up with this:
Code:
@echo off
adb connect 192.168.1.66
echo Time to fix the market
pause
adb shell su
adb shell chown system:cache /cache/download
adb shell chmod ug+rwx /cache/download
adb shell chmod a+x /cache/download
echo Done
pause
This didn't work, nor did a few iterations previous to it where I was taking out the repetitive 'adb shell' commands. I don't know enough about batch/dos programming to get this to work, so I am turning to the community. Help please?

i think you must need superuser permision
not "adb shell" try "adb shell -c"

Does that mean I need to put "adb shell -c" on each line? Just once?

just replace 'adb shell' to 'adb shell su -c' and retry

Got it! Thanks!
I got it to work too (well, I think anyway). If anyone's interested, here's my code (and if anyone sees any problems, let me know!):
Code:
@echo Begin s0be's market fix
@echo off
PAUSE
adb connect 192.168.1.66
adb shell "su -c 'sleep 1'"
adb start-server
@echo on
@echo Working...
@echo off
SET /P ANSWER=Create /cache/download?
echo (y/y): %ANSWER%
if /i {%ANSWER%}=={y} (goto :yes)
goto :no
:yes
adb shell "su -c 'sleep 2'"
@echo Creating Market Directory in Cache
@echo off
adb shell "su -c 'mkdir /cache/download'"
goto :no
:no
adb shell "su -c 'sleep 2'"
@echo Assigning Logical Link
@echo off
adb shell "su -c 'chown system:cache /cache/download'"
adb shell "su -c 'sleep 2'"
@echo Setting Permissions for Logical Link
@echo off
adb shell "su -c 'chmod ug+rwx /cache/download'"
adb shell "su -c 'chmod a+x /cache/download'"
adb shell "su -c 'sleep 2'"
@echo asop Market Fix complete!
PAUSE
RVDigital gave me some help as well
