I want the output as

ERROR 1
Error with Java
ERROR 2
ERROR 3


As, In the above data time have different seconds . I am not getting how to do that .

Kindly let me know how to do the same.

Code:

awk '{ pos=instr($0, " E"); if(pos) {pos++; $0=substr($0,pos) }; print $0}' filename

A bit modification to your earlier post's answer :

Code:

sed 's/\(.*]\)//'  input_file

Jim , I hope your's is good as wherever the "Error" is , it will return
