Hi..

Could you please try to print the variable after defining to check it is present or not..
just like..

Code:

echo $search_var

for searching everything between 19 to 20 use below command..

Code:

search_ST=$(echo "`date --date="yesterday" +%Y-%m-%d`  19:")
search_EN=$(echo "`date --date="yesterday" +%Y-%m-%d`  20:")

sed -n '/'"$search_ST"'/,/'"$search_EN"'/p'

Try to run below command directly to check it is working or not..

Code:

date --date="yesterday" +%Y-%m-%d

let me know if still have any questions..
