Help with extracting a part of a line between two patterns
Hello All,
I have a text file with contents as below:
Code:
contents of error.txt:
message1="Reason for error code1"
message2="Reason for error code2"
message3="Reason for error code3.
To solve this, you may try doing restart"
I have a requirement where in I have to extract the contents between the " and save it in a variable for each error code and use it later in my shell script.
(Please note that the messages may be spanned across multi-lines between " as for message3.)
I managed to do it something like:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
## some code here
value=`sed -n '/code3/{N;s/.*"\(.*\)".*/\1/p}' error.txt`
echo "Reason for error code3 is:$value"
Code:
Output should look like:
user1@linux:/home/user1> ./error_message.ksh
Reason for error code3 is:Reason for error code3.
To solve this, you may try doing restart
This works in ksh in linux OS. But, I am facing problem in executing the same peice of code in AIX.

Error message says: sed: Function /code3/{N;s/.*"\(.*\)".*/\1/p} cannot be parsed
