Can't find the bug in my code - bombing with rename
Hi Folks -
I'm encountering an issue:
Scenario:
We have automated GL data loads utilizing FDMEE. The problem is that some of our Locations could have multiple files. I think we are running into a situation where the script is trying to name the 2 files the same name and it is bombing out.
Question:
Have you ever had to deal with this? Do you have any ideas as to how I could modify the script to accommodate renaming multiple files?
The example file names that we are loading are below.
I have just recently had a look at this website and came across the following article:

Is there a command I can use to rename all directories with a certain name to a new name. For instance from my root directory I want to change all folders named '123' to '321' that are in the root directory or any subdirectory.
Thanks in advance! (6 Replies)
This single line of code in a sh script file
top -b -n 1 -U $USER
causes the script to prematurely exit with an exit code of 1 (i.e. an error) if the script is run with the -e option (e.g. if
set -e
is executed near the top of the script file).
Alternatively, you can execute it like

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to find a particular file and then give it as an input to a program and then dump it into another file.
Something like this:
find ./ -name '*.txt' -exec ~/processText {} > mod.<current_file> \;
I've been trying all sorts of weird things but not... (2 Replies)
In response to a closed thread for degraff63 at
https://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/108882-using-mv-find-exec.html
the following command might do it as some shells spit it without the "exec bash -c " part:
Find . -name "*.model" -exec bash -c "mv {} \`echo {} | sed -e 's//_/g'\`"... (0 Replies)
Hello,
This porblem bugged me for some time. It is to merge different files of hundred rows to have a union with the ID as key column (kind of similar to join!) and absence with 0.
ID File1
A 1

D 4
M 6
ID File2
A 5
B 10
C 15
Z 26
ID File3
A 2
B 6
O 20

rename - renames multiple files
SYNOPSIS
rename [ -v ] [ -n ] [ -f ] perlexpr [ files ]
DESCRIPTION
"rename" renames the filenames supplied according to the rule specified as the first argument. The perlexpr argument is a Perl expression
which is expected to modify the $_ string in Perl for at least some of the filenames specified. If a given filename is not modified by the
expression, it will not be renamed. If no filenames are given on the command line, filenames will be read via standard input.
For example, to rename all files matching "*.bak" to strip the extension, you might say
rename 's/.bak$//' *.bak
To translate uppercase names to lower, you'd use
rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' *
OPTIONS -v, --verbose
Verbose: print names of files successfully renamed.
-n, --no-act
No Action: show what files would have been renamed.
-f, --force
Force: overwrite existing files.
ENVIRONMENT
No environment variables are used.

If you give an invalid Perl expression you'll get a syntax error.
BUGS
The original "rename" did not check for the existence of target filenames, so had to be used with care. I hope I've fixed that (Robin
Barker).
