# BigCodeBench/12

Implement a file **`solution.py`** that completes the function below. Keep the given name and signature; define `task_func` at module level.

Allowed libraries: `subprocess`, `datetime`, `json`, `os`.

```python
import subprocess
import os
import json
from datetime import datetime


def task_func(script_name='backup.sh', log_file='/home/user/backup_log.json'):
    """
    Runs the provided backup shell script and logs the start time, end time, and exit status 
    in a specified JSON log file.
    
    Parameters:
    - script_name (str): The name of the shell script to run. Default is 'backup.sh'.
    - log_file (str): The path to the JSON log file where the execution details will be recorded. Default is '/home/user/backup_log.json'.
    
    Returns:
    dict: A dictionary containing:
        - 'start_time': The start time of the script execution in the format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'.
        - 'end_time': The end time of the script execution in the format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'.
        - 'exit_status': The exit status of the script execution (0 for success, other values indicate an error).
    
    Raises:
    - FileNotFoundError: If the script file does not exist.
    - RuntimeError: If there is an error executing the script.
        
    Requirements:
    - subprocess
    - os
    - datetime
    - json
    
    Example:
    >>> task_func()
    {'start_time': '2023-09-19 14:30:00', 'end_time': '2023-09-19 14:35:00', 'exit_status': 0}

The most likely problem is that when we run a script like \"backup.sh\", it might not be found in PATH or the current directory.\n\nLet me revise to make sure I'm using the right approach:\n\n```python\nimport subprocess\nimport os\nimport json\nfrom datetime import datetime\n\n\ndef task_func(script_name='backup.sh', log_file='/home/user/backup_log.json'):\n    \"\"\"\n    Runs the provided backup shell script and logs the start time, end time, and exit status \n    in a specified JSON log file.\n    \n    Parameters:\n    - script_name (str): The name of the shell script to run. Default is 'backup.sh'.\n    - log_file (str): The path to the JSON log file where the execution details will be recorded. Default is '/home/user/backup_log.json'.\n    \n    Returns:\n    dict: A dictionary containing:\n        - 'start_time': The start time of the script execution in the format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'.\n        - 'end_time': The end time of the script execution in the format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'.\n        - 'exit_status': The exit status of the script execution (0 for success, other values indicate an error).\n    \n    Raises:\n    - FileNotFoundError: If the script file does not exist.\n    - RuntimeError: If there is an error executing the script.\n        \n    Requirements:\n    - subprocess\n    - os\n    - datetime\n    - json\n    \n    Example:\n    >>> task_func()\n    {'start_time': '2023-09-19 14:30:00', 'end_time': '2023-09-19 14:35:00', 'exit_status': 0}\n    \"\"\"\n    # Check if script file exists\n    if not os.path.isfile(script_name):\n        raise FileNotFoundError(f\"Script file {script_name} does not exist\")\n    \n    # Get start time\n    start_time = datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')\n    \n    try:\n        # Execute the script using subprocess.run as in the original code\n        result = subprocess.run(['bash', script_name], capture_output=True, text=True)\n        exit_status = result.returncode\n    except Exception as e:\n        raise RuntimeError(f\"Error executing script: {str(e)}\")\n    \n    # Get end time\n    end_time = datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')\n    \n    # Create log entry\n    log_entry = {\n        'start_time': start_time,\n        'end_time': end_time,\n        'exit_status': exit_status\n    }\n    \n    # Write to log file\n    try:\n        if os.path.exists(log_file):\n            with open(log_file, 'r') as f:\n                log_data = json.load(f)\n        else:\n            log_data = []\n        \n        log_data.append(log_entry)\n        \n        with open(log_file, 'w') as f:\n            json.dump(log_data, f, indent=2)\n    except Exception as e:\n        raise RuntimeError(f\"Error writing to log file: {str(e)}\")\n    \n    return log_entry\n```",
