If for testing purposes you change grep -l to just grep it will show you the lines in the files which contain the value you typed (which was stored in $ticket).


Slightly off topic. Are you having difficulty cutting text from your screen into posts on unix.com. We see unformatted script with no line breaks including various &quot strings in place of real double quote characters. Do you see the same effect in your browser?

How exactly are you pasting this? What web browser are you using? We can't really tell what you're doing since it gets turned into garbage when you paste it.

Now, please re-post the script. It's behaving as if $ticket is blank for some reason. I note that the confirmatory echo of the number entered is missing from the above post.
Please also show how you are running this script.


Ps. Corona688 posted a link earlier in this thread about how to use code tags when posting code or data.
