As I suspected use following one

Code:
$ while IFS= read -r i; do bunzip2 "${i%$'\r'}" ; done<"file.lst"

Make it simple no need of 777

You can try if your interest is just to unzip files rather than unzipping specific files in a file.lst

Code:
for i in *.bz2; do
  bunzip2 $i
done

did you try post #8 ?

Yes I tried #8 I got the same error.
Code:
for i in *.bz2; do
  bunzip2 $i
done


this worked for me. but there will be lot of files which are failed, we need only few specific ones which needs to reprocessed.

I can do them also, by moving separately into a folder and try the above code. but it is a time consuming one.


we need a code that can be processed on one run.

how to run shell scripts as I mentioned in the previous post (123.sh). when I run simply as 123.sh and only one command in it, it is working fine.

in loop it is not working.

Thanks a lot for being helping. I was figuring out since yesterday.

help me in finding any other ways .

I used the below one but no use
Code:
for i in `cat file.lst`; do
bunzip2 $i
done

we have to change the file names from "*.xml.ftpfail" to ".xml"

and then ftp the files to another server.

#8 should work, don't know whats going wrong I have tested like this

Code:
[akshay@aix Stuff]$ cat test
file1.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file2.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file3.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file4.XML.ftpfail.bz2

[akshay@aix Stuff]$ od -c test
0000000   f   i   l   e   1   .   X   M   L   .   f   t   p   f   a   i
0000020   l   .   b   z   2  \r  \n   f   i   l   e   2   .   X   M   L
0000040   .   f   t   p   f   a   i   l   .   b   z   2  \r  \n   f   i
0000060   l   e   3   .   X   M   L   .   f   t   p   f   a   i   l   .
0000100   b   z   2  \r  \n   f   i   l   e   4   .   X   M   L   .   f
0000120   t   p   f   a   i   l   .   b   z   2  \r  \n
0000134

[akshay@aix Stuff]$ while IFS= read -r i; do tar -zcvf "${i%$'\r'}" test ; done<"test"
test
test
test
test

[akshay@aix Stuff]$ while IFS= read -r i; do ls "$i" ; done<"test"
: No such file or directory.ftpfail.bz2
: No such file or directory.ftpfail.bz2
: No such file or directory.ftpfail.bz2
: No such file or directory.ftpfail.bz2

[akshay@aix Stuff]$ while IFS= read -r i; do ls "${i%$'\r'}" ; done<"test"
file1.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file2.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file3.XML.ftpfail.bz2
file4.XML.ftpfail.bz2

It's problem with file.lst remove carriage return and use it

You can delete carriage return like this
Code:
$ tr -d '\r' <file.lst >newfile.lst

You can run like this
Code:
$ chmod +x scriptname
$ ./scriptname

Code:
$ sh scriptname

Code:
$ bash scriptname

Code:
$ ksh scriptname

depending on what shell you are using

Kindly use codetags

Can you give some precautions , what things can be done to avoid carriage return characters appended while copying to notepad from unix editor ?

Before running program do any of the following

Code:
$ tr -d '\r' < infile > outfile

Code:
$ sed -i s/\r// infile

Code:
$ dos2unix infile
