General :: List Of Directories In A File?
Apr 3, 2011
I have generated a list of directories that I would like to use ls and grep on, but it is not working. I am using the commandCode:cat directories.dat | xargs lsand I get a whole lot of these errors:Code:ls: cannot access ./foo/bar/baz/grault/*: No such file or directorybut when I try the directories manually one at a time I find that they all exist and all have files in them. Same thing if I try to grep anything. What is going wrong?

I'm looking for a way to produce a list of all the directories in the current working directory sorted by the total number of files that are contained with them.
Initially I though that Nautilus could be used for this, but then I realised it doesn't count files in the sub directories.
The best I've got for a command line solution so far is this
Code:
The use case for this is a situation where a user has a quota applied to their home directory which limits the number of files they are allowed to have and they have exceeded that limit.

I am trying to write a simple back up script in python where I try to list the files that are 24 hours old in specific directories that I would choose.I read the manual of find and used
find . -mtime 1 > log.dat
to get the list of files in the log.dat however I also get the path information in that list as such
./hpc06MatlabCodes/2011/Apr/3dBoxModel
./hpc06MatlabCodes/2011/Apr/3dBoxModel/vfluidIrca10.dat
./hpc06MatlabCodes/2011/Apr/3dBoxModel/vLRecoveredSystem.mat
is there a way to exclude the directories and only get the files list.

How can only directories be listed, that do not have another child directory?
Imagine a structure like /A /A/AA /A/AB /A/AB/ABB /B /C /C/CC /C/CC/CCC /C/CC/CCC/CCCC I would like to use find to list only /A/AA /A/AB/ABB /B /C/CC/CCC/CCCC.
The starting point would be find . -type d, but neither -mindepth nor -maxdepth can be used, can -noleaf help (I could not get it to react the way I wanted it to)?

I recently used up all my free inodes on my server. I had a bunch of mail messages that were sitting there using up a bunch, so I cleared the postfix queue. That gave me some room. What I'd like to do, is get a listing of the directories using the most inodes (or containing the most number of files), so that I can find the other culprits.Basically I want the output of "df -i" but to be able to do it recursively on a specific directory.

I need a command to list the total sizes for all the directories in a mounted drive.I tried df and du.df list the total size for the mounted drivedu depending on what option I give it either list the total size or list all the sizes for every file on the drive.All I want to know is the sizes of all the directories on the mounted drive.This is a windows vista hard-drive and for some reason ubuntu is reporting a 50 GB partition and only 10GB free, I want to know what's taking up all the free space. I can't find anything in the file browser, so far I've only managed to count up about 10GB of used space so where is the other 30GB.

The current directory contains:A file called "original.txt" Many directories called "source_001", "source_002", "source_003" ... From the command line how do you copy "original.txt" to "source_001" and "source_002" and "source_003" ...
The total number of these source directories is unknown, it changes every week.

I need to, through a bash script, go through a given directory (given as argument 1) to list out the relative path in this directory (including $1) for eact subdirectory which contains files. Directories which only contain . .. and eventually only subdirectories SHALL NOT be listed. It is this last requirement that makes it difficult for me.
I have been using the tree command for now, but I have not found a way to ignore paths to directories which only contains other subdirs or nothing at all in any easy way. I may offcourse test each directory after they are listed but this gives an extra loop to go through and I beleive it should be possible to do it directly when creatring the list. I guess by using find or ls in conjuntion with the tree command or by itself it should be possible but I am not to conversant of nested script commands.

I've spent ages trying to build this and had a good look around for a way to do it. I have a directory tree which contains a set of folders and files. Some of the folders contain more than one file but most contain only a single one. I'm trying to move all of the files which are on their own in directories one level below the root into the root. E.g:
Root is: /volume3
Single file in a sub folder: /volume3/20110103/20110103.log
File should end up as: /volume3/20110103.log
I know how to flatten the entire structure fairly easily but its the conditional part which I can't figure out how to do.

I want to make a webserver with multiple users allowed to login through SFTP to a specific folder, www.Multiple users are added, lets say user1 and user2, and all of them belonging to the www-data group. The www directory has an owner www-data and a group www-data.
I have used chmod -R 775 on the www folder, but after I try to create a folder test through my SFTP server (using Filezilla) the group of the directory created has only r and x permissions, and I am not able to log in with the second user user2 and create a directory within www/test due to a lack of w permission to the group.
I also tried using chmod 2775 on www directory, but without luck. Can somebody explain to me, how can I make it so that a newly created directory inherits the root directory group permissions?

I'm not sure if this is possible or even where to start. I assume that this can be done with an sh script using tar or similar.I have several very large zip files that contain images for all of the products in my online store. Each image is named after its 13 digit SKU (for example, 9987788000012.jpg). In order to import products into my store, all images are placed into a media directory. Unfortunately, there are over 100,000 images.
So I would like to break the images into sub-folders based on file name. For example, when I extract store_images.zip (or tar or whatever), my extract script would create directories (if they don't already exist) based on the first three digits of each image name, placing each image into the appropriate bottom level directory. For example, "9987788000012.jpg" would be placed in the following directory "media/9/9/8", with media as the root and "8" as the directory that holds any images that start with "998". Perhaps two sub-folders would be less cumbersome.Assuming this requires a script, particularly since it involves scanning image names, creating folders, and saving images to specific directories, which language would serve my needs best? PHP? Has anyone had to do something similar?

I'm trying to convert all file extensions for files in many sub-directories from uppercase to lowercase. I have two problems, how to list the absolute path to the files recursively over many sub-directories for which I so far have this:-
Code:
find ~/Photos -print which would be fine, except it gives the directories on their own when it finds them rather than just the files with absolute paths. I couldn't find a switch for the "ls" command to do this, so I had to improvise with "find". and once I get grab each absolute file name, to just change the file extension rather than the entire file, which is what I have at the moment.
[Code]..

I've published a samba share on a Ubuntu 8.10 server, and mounted the share on a windows box. For some strange reason the files are not sorted by file name (nor by any other sorting type) if I list them from the Windows command line (dir). I could always use the "dir /on" parameter, but I hope there's a way to make samba sort the files for me

I have a system that will not boot as /usr has been destroyed and I would like to get a list of installed packages before re-installing. I know that it's possible to get this using dpkg or apt, but I cannot run those.
Where in the filesystem is this information stored and what's the best way to get a list of installed apps from the files?

With file command we can get the file type. File returns a unique answer for each file type. I want to get the total list that file can return for linux & solaris. For example, I have a partial list of file's return output. Unfortunately I can't see the total list from manual page.
