zero byte with String

My program would be creating a file, incase of non data from database it would only able to produce 'END, logically it would be file created by oracle in unix.

this file is showing zero byte but actully there are 4 char in file.This is not required, therefore what is command line should be written so that if the string matches then rm the file fromn location.

i have executed the commond based of zero byte but no luck.

SERVICES_MKDB(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 					  SERVICES_MKDB(8)

NAME
services_mkdb -- generate the services database SYNOPSIS
services_mkdb [-b | -l] [-q] [-o database] [file] services_mkdb -u [file] DESCRIPTION
The services_mkdb utility creates a db(3) database for the specified file. If no file is specified, then /etc/services is used. The data- base is installed into /var/db/services.db. The file must be in the correct format (see services(5)). The options are as follows: -b Use big-endian byte order for database metadata. -l Use little-endian byte order for database metadata. -o database Put the output databases in the named file. -q Do not warn about duplicate services. -u Print the services file to stdout, omitting duplicate entries and comments. The databases are used by the C library services routines (see The -b and -l flags are mutually exclusive. The default byte ordering is the current host order. getservent(3)). FILES
/var/db/services.db The current services database. /var/db/services.db.tmp A temporary file. /etc/services The current services file. EXIT STATUS
The services_mkdb utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO
db(3), getservent(3), services(5) BUGS
Because services_mkdb guarantees not to install a partial destination file it must build a temporary file in the same file system and if suc- cessful use rename(2) to install over the destination file. If services_mkdb fails it will leave the previous version of the destination file intact. BSD
