Rename a log file to old, then create a new log file.
Hi all,
I have about 15 directories all with exactly the same structure. I have a file in each of them called log.txt. This file sits in /home/ftp/*usernamehere*/ftptransfer/log/
Username here is the only change in each of the 15 directories.
I want to create a SIMPLE shell script that go's into each directory and renames the log.txt files to log.txt.old, and then recreates log.txt (would need to remove the log.txt.old when it runs for the second time.
I kind of had an attempt but ran into a few issues... Heres my code
Code:
#!/bin/sh
for i in /home/ftp/*/ftptransfer/log/; do
if [ "$i" != "log.txt" ];
then
rm log.txt.old
mv log.txt log.txt.old
touch log.txt
fi
done
