Failed to substitute string with "<>"
Hi folks,

I have the following template file:

Code:
application.filePath.core = /core-RIGHTV/Html/
application.filePath.xbip = /xbip-RIGHTV/Html/
translator.rootContext = /translator_<schame_name>/

I need to substitute the string in the third line "<schema_name>" with $SCHEMA_NAME

I ran the following command:
Code:
sed -e 's/<schema_name>/IAS10G/g' application.properties

IAS10G is $SCHEMA_NAME

Nothing was happened.The string was not substituted.

What was wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Nir

It works perfect.

Am not sure about this, but check your spelling of schema.

See this
Code:
[~/temp]$ echo "translator.rootContext = /translator_<schema_name>/" |  sed -e 's/<schema_name>/IAS10G/g'
translator.rootContext = /translator_IAS10G/

Hey vino!

Nice to meet you again here.

Your command with the "echo" works perfect,I agreed.

But I'm running the following:
Code:
platform:/tmp> sed -e 's/<schema_name>/IAS10G/g' application.properties
   application.filePath.core = /core-IAS10G/Html/
   application.filePath.xbip = /xbip-IAS10G/Html/
   translator.rootContext = /translator_<schame_name>/

As you can see ,the string wasn't substituted.

Thanks in advance,

Nir

True,

Look at the words that are colored.


platform:/tmp> sed -e 's/schema_name>/IAS10G/g' application.properties
application.filePath.core = /core-IAS10G/Html/
application.filePath.xbip = /xbip-IAS10G/Html/
translator.rootContext = /translator_<schame_name>/

With those spelling differences, I dont think sed will work the way you want.

Oooooooooooooooooohps.....

Wow!!
Someone wrote by mistake "schame" instead of "schema" in the template file.
I'm going to hit him .....

Thanks again!
