[AIX] Binary file warning for text file.
Hello guys,
We had to move from a DC to another, and we are now facing an "issue" with some text files.
Looks like that some of our log files are set as binary:
file TuxConnectorURA.20121012
TuxConnectorURA.20121012: data or International Language text
less TuxConnectorURA.20121012
"TuxConnectorURA.20121012" may be a binary file. See it anyway?
but I can see it normally after pressing "y"
My question is... is there a way to correct it? Will it causing any impact? (I'm afraid that non-log files are with such problem).
Thanks a lot!
