Shell Programming and Scripting

Hey friends ..


can anybody guide me whts wrong in this script .................


#!/bin/bash
cd /home/jagannath.n/test
folderlist1=$(ls -l | grep ^d | awk '{ print $8}' | grep -vE '^-|^$|^List|^Name|template[0|1]|^\(')
for dir in $folderlist1
do
DIR1=/home/jagannath.n/test/$dir/Public
DIR2=/home/jagannath.n/test/$dir/Private
test -d $DIR1 | mkdir $DIR1 ; chmod -R 755 $DIR1
test -d $DIR2 | mkdir $DIR2 ; chmod -R 700 $DIR2

folderlist2=$(ls -l $DIR1/ | grep ^d | awk '{ print $8}' | grep -vE '^-|^$|^List|^Name|^Desktop|^Public|^Private|template[0|1]|^\(')
for i in $folderlist3
do
mv $i $DIR1/
done
done

What error do you get?

Thanks for Reply

cp: cannot stat `asdaad': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `b': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `c': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `d': No such file or directory

why are you using awk '{print $8}'??
i think it gives you time stamp field if you wanna get the file name you have to take $9

thanks for Reply

.............$8 prints file or folder name ...that is not problem.......
i was really frustrated by using grep .... so finally i have decided to go for find command and my problem is solved ..

see mine new script

#for i in *; do if [ -d $i ]; then mkdir $i/Public; mkdir $i/Private; find $i -wholename "$i/.*" -prune -o -wholename "$i/Public" -prune -o -wholename "$i/Private" -prune -o -wholename "$i/Desktop" -prune -o -print -exec mv {} $i/Public \; ; fi; done
