Bash script error: missing destination file name operand.
Ok, i've been messing around in debian the past few days, setting up programs like subversion, mysql and logrotate. The purpose of this script is to use subversion to backup the binary logs. It runs in the cron every 2 hours or so (although I can't get my script to run properly atm, which is why i'm here).
It also changes the filename to the format logfile-"current date" so as to keep it fairly sorted in subversion.
I'm more or less learning how to write scripts straight off the internet, so, in my defence, I could be using horribly bad practice or completely incorrect syntax, I'm not sure at the moment.
This is the code:
This is the error I get when it runs:
I'm guessing either my file path is wrong (although i've gotten similar scripts to work), or i've stuffed up the if/else statement.
When i tyr this, it gives me a syntax error...i tried removing quotes,removing spaces,replacing -eq with '='.. Can somebody suggest that is the problem?
