Problem with grep
I have the following ksh
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
file=$OBS_APP_PATH/config/com/uhg/obs/inbound/configs/XMLFile_ServiceFeeDetail.xml
echo $file
cntWrd=0
echo $cntWrd
cntWrd= grep -c '<serviceFee>' $file
echo $cntWrd

while executing the above im getting the following error msg:
Code:
/obs/tst/app/config/com/uhg/obs/inbound/configs> sh parsingNew.ksh
/obs/tst/app/config/com/uhg/obs/inbound/configs/XMLFile_ServiceFeeDetail.xml
0
: No such file or directory path
/obs/tst/app/config/com/uhg/obs/inbound/configs/
: No such file or directoryail.xml

Code:
grep -c '<serviceFee>' XMLFile_ServiceFeeDetail.xml

Code:
cntWrd= grep -c '<serviceFee>' $file

This will not work in shell. Use:
Code:
cntWrd=$(grep -c '<serviceFee>' $file)

Generally you can add to your code a set -x where debugging output of your script should start and stop it with set +x.
