While read line in shell

Guys,

I have a requirement like below
my cfg file(sam.cfg) has

Code:
path=/u/sample/test/
path=/u/sample1/test1/
path=/u/sample2/test2/
days=10
file=*.log

My script is below,

Code:
#!/bin/sh
 
./u/sample/sam.cfg
 
while read line
do
find $path -name "$file" -mtime +$days -exec ls -la {} \; 2> /dev/null > sam.log
done < sam.cfg

if i execute this, this is only finding the files under path /u/sample2/test2/. (taking the last path mentioned in cfg).
Its not finding the files from the (path=/u/sample/test/) and (path=/u/sample1/test1/)
Could you please anyone help me on this?

Appreciate your help!!!

Thanks,

HOBBIT-NKVIEW.CFG(5)						File Formats Manual					      HOBBIT-NKVIEW.CFG(5)

NAME
hobbit-nkview.cfg - Configuration of the hobbitgraph CGI SYNOPSIS
$BBHOME/etc/hobbit-nkview.cfg DESCRIPTION
hobbit-nkview.cgi(1) uses the configuration file $BBHOME/etc/hobbit-nkview.cfg to determine which of the statuses currently in a red or yellow state should appear on the Critical Systems view. This file should not be edited manually. It is maintained by the hobbit-nkeedit.cgi(1) utility via a web-based frontend. FILE PERMISSIONS
Since the file is maintained by a web front-end tool, the userid running Web CGI scripts must have write-permission to the file. Typi- cally, this means it must have a group-ownership matching your webserver userid, and group-write permissions (mode 664). When editing the file with the web front-end, a backup file is created. Therefore the hobbit-nkview.cfg.bak file should have identical permissions. SEE ALSO
hobbit-nkview.cgi(1), hobbit-nkedit.cgi(1) Xymon Version 4.2.3: 4 Feb 2009 HOBBIT-NKVIEW.CFG(5)
