My variable cannot be passed through into my path
Hi,
Can you please help. I am scripting in sh and I am trying to simply copy one directory to another but for some reason my variables are not recognised?
HTML Code:
echo "The latest version of the program is being found......."
cd $SOFTWARE/src/$progname
version=`ls $SOFTWARE/src/$progname | grep 'v00*' | tail -1`
echo "Latest version for $progname is $version"
#Copy over the latest version of the program
cp -r $SOFTWARE/src/$progname/$version $SOFTWARE/devl/$progname
The problem is to do with the $version variable it seems because when I subsitute $version with a directory name that is hard coded it works BUT when you simply echo $version it also looks correct. Do I need to convert it to a different format or something?
