I wrote a program using Perl to find and replace a text within a file.
The text that needs to be replaced in the file is 'sql7.0.1' with 'sqls715'. When I execute my program I get an error message:
Quote:
can't /tmp/odbc.ini_old : A file or directory in the path name does not exist
Here is my code:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $filename = '/tmp/odbc.ini.2014_old';
my $find=' sql7.0.1 ';
my $replace = ' sqls715 ';
{
local @ARGV =($filename);
local $^I ='.bac';
while (<>) {
if (s/$find/$replace/ig) {
}
else {
print;
}
}
}
print "Finished";

Hello,
I must replace all occurences of 0a character in a text file with 2 characters 0d0a. I've tried sed, but it cannot insert control characters ie. \n \r - it simply writes \n \r into output file. What is the good solution for my problem? I use ksh and AIX 5.3 operating system.
