Quoting from the code in the first message on this thread:
I assume you're aware that the comments talk about 7 days, but the find commands are working on 2 days.
As Corona688 has already noted, the "$("...")" should be removed surrounding both find statements.
Note that the format of all of your test statements:
are missing required whitespace. They should be:
respectively. Even if your shell accepts [expr] without a space after [ and a space before ], the expression $deletestatus=true will always evaluate to TRUE because the expression is a non-empty string (the = won't be recognized as a comparison operator unless there is whitespace before and after it).
Also note that you have . $logloc . as the list of directories to be searched in both find statements. Are you intentionally processing the current directory twice?
And you have - name instead of -name in the second find. I'm surprised that find didn't complain that -, name, and SystemOut_* are not directories; but of course it might not have noticed since it may have taken quite a while to remove all files older than 2 day from . and $logloc before trying to open these three names as directories.
