Hi all,
what i'm trying to configure its to the following,
find all files older then 1 min,gzip them ,rename/move with date and extension .gz (example tes.log_2012-07-26.gz) and trying to move them to another folder (gzipped),the command i'm typing its this,
but it does only the first two options,gzips the files and rename/moves them with the correct date and extension,but it doesn't complete the third option to move the file to another directory (gzipped)
when executing the command i get the following
Code:
mv: can not stat of "/home/charli/Desktop/test/test.log": File or directory does not exist
I'm trying to see which files have a particular word in them.
The files are all text files but are gzipped and are in sub directories.
In order to view the content of a single gzipped file I tried:
cat filename | gzip -d | less , and it shows the files contents.
But, I want to see a list... (1 Reply)

the following command might do it as some shells spit it without the "exec bash -c " part:

mv
MV(1) General Commands Manual MV(1)NAME
mv - move or rename files
SYNOPSIS
mv [ -i ] [ -f ] [ - ] file1 file2
mv [ -i ] [ -f ] [ - ] file ... directory
DESCRIPTION
Mv moves (changes the name of) file1 to file2.
If file2 already exists, it is removed before file1 is moved. If file2 has a mode which forbids writing, mv prints the mode (see chmod(2))
and reads the standard input to obtain a line; if the line begins with y, the move takes place; if not, mv exits.
In the second form, one or more files (plain files or directories) are moved to the directory with their original file-names.
Mv refuses to move a file onto itself.
Options:
-i stands for interactive mode. Whenever a move is to supercede an existing file, the user is prompted by the name of the file followed
by a question mark. If he answers with a line starting with 'y', the move continues. Any other reply prevents the move from occur-
ring.
-f stands for force. This option overrides any mode restrictions or the -i switch.
- means interpret all the following arguments to mv as file names. This allows file names starting with minus.
SEE ALSO cp(1), ln(1)BUGS
If file1 and file2 lie on different file systems, mv must copy the file and delete the original. In this case the owner name becomes that
of the copying process and any linking relationship with other files is lost.
