Might be a bit late for that. This is not a syntax error.

Quote:
find /WMID/data/temp/TxTest/Dev/txStore -type d -mtime +1
The above statement finds the parent directory first:
/WMID/data/temp/TxTest/Dev/txStore
Then the command part deleted the entire tree recursively.
The remaining deletions all fail because the directories have already been deleted.
