Maybe something more like:
Code:
filename_time2=$(date --date='yesterday' +%Y-%m-%d)
cd /location/of/the/files/to/copy

for file in server.log-$filename_time2*
do	if [ -f "$file" ]
	then
		cp server.log-$filename_time2* ../archive/new
		exitcode=$?
		echo "One or more files with timestamp $fiename_time2 copied"
		exit $exitcode
	else
		echo "No server log files present with timestamp $filename_time2"
		exit 1
	fi
done
