Code:
#!/usr/bin/bash
echo "Finding files that are 90+ days old in the server.  Output will be a list of files to be moved:"

if find /var/opt/projects/apps/. -name "*.gz" -mtime +1 -print -exec echo  mv {} /var/opt/projects/apps/temp/ \; >file1.txt
then    echo 'Script completed successfully.'
else    echo 'One or more errors are reported above.'
        exit 2
fi

O/p

Code:
mv /var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.39455717678172897.gz /var/opt/projects/apps/temp/
/var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.42892912234008185.gz

With the script you have shown us the output should either:
Code:
Script completed successfully.

or:
Code:
One or more errors are reported above.

Not:
Code:
mv /var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.39455717678172897.gz /var/opt/projects/apps/temp/
/var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.42892912234008185.gz

If the output produced by the script was:
Code:
Script completed successfully.

and the contents of file1.txt was:
Code:
mv /var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.39455717678172897.gz /var/opt/projects/apps/temp/
/var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.42892912234008185.gz

and you want to actually move /var/opt/projects/apps/./temp/tmp0.39455717678172897.gz to /var/opt/projects/apps/temp/tmp0.39455717678172897.gz, remove the echo from the script.
