I have tried it but it did not change,

when i have removed it then it gives the following error msg:

Code:
./test.sh: line 10: find: command not found

I don't understand why, all i wanted to do is to make the script a bit generic for log compressing & moving.. I can do it normal way without using variables but anyways i would like to find out what the issue is :/
