AIX

hi all,

i do search for a file in solaris box in the following format

find / -name 'file' -print 2>/dev/null

i tried the same thing on AIX box;
as i am searching from the root the same way i redirected the errors to /dev/null but find is showing strip off errors and when i just continued with

find / -name 'file' - find command failed before completing the operation.

can somebody help me with this problem?

Thanks.

The command "find / -name 'file' -print 2>/dev/null" is correct AFAICS. I use this on various OS versions and only once had a problem, see this thread

As I have finally found out this problem is coming from the same source.

Please provide additional information regarding your machine/OS level as I have been unable to reproduce the problem with AIX 5.3.

Most interesting would be your OS-level, as displayed by issuing:

Code:

# instfix -i | grep "AIX_ML"
