Why doesn't this work?

find . -name "05_scripts" -type d -exec mv -f {}/'*.aep\ Logs' {}/.LogFiles \;

Returns this failure:
mv: rename ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/*.aep\ Logs to ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/.LogFiles/*.aep\ Logs: No such file or directory

I don't know why it's trying to use the "/*.aep\ Logs" in the target directory.

If it key in the command generated manually it works fine.
mv -f ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/*.aep\ Logs ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/.LogFiles/
Works perfectly.

The possible values are: %h host emitting the request %t date (formatted like %d/%b/%Y %H:%M:%S) %P PID %L log level %D timer %m message %f file name that emit the message %l line from the file %i request ID %{$fmt}t timer formatted with a valid time format %{header}h header value There is two preset possible: simple will format the message like: [%P] %L @%D> %m in %f l. %l with_id will format the message like: [%P] %L @%D> [hit #%i] %m in %f l. %l METHODS
format_message Provides a common message formatting. core Logs messages as core. debug Logs messages as debug. warning Logs messages as warning. error Logs messages as error. info Logs messages as info. _log A method to override. If your logger does not provide this, it will cause the application to die. _should Checks a certain level number against a certain level type (core, debug, info warning, error). AUTHOR
