So how can i capture the list_file (i.e) files to be deleted and how to capture error_file (i.e) files not found based on ID file.
I can get the list_file (i.e) files to be deleted if i use the below code.
can you help me in order to get the error_file capture?
So I've tried a lot different ways in capturing files not found for above command, no luck. can someone guide me in capturing for the files not found from the input file (i.e) ID.
I don't know why you'd expect error_file to get anything inside it when all you're doing is echo's inside the loop. Read it -- there's no mv inside there.
I'm hoping the ID I highlighted blue is a valid filename. It's supposed to be the input file you're reading ID's from. If it's not, it's wrong.
Try this:
I left off the 'rm' by accident. It must have been printing all the filenames, as xargs does when it isn't given a program to run. If you'd mentioned this, that would have helped discover the problem. But all you ever say is 'not working'...
