Error when find and remove directory based on time
Hi Experts,

Below command remove directory exactly but trying again to find the same directory and giving following error.
I would appreciate for your help friends.

find ./2* -type d -mtime +0 -exec rm -rf {} \;
find: 0652-081 cannot change directory to </home/busi/backup/200606>:
: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
find: 0652-081 cannot change directory to </home/busi/backup/200607>:
: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
find: 0652-081 cannot change directory to </home/busi/backup/200608>:
: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

Thanks and Regards,
HAA
