find out a command to search among all *.dat files in a certain path (including subdirectories) looking for the following text in them:
Code:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elements with small area
Element Adjusted nodes
--------- --------------
16294 NO
17889 NO
and getting the list of elements with small area printed in a file "ErrorEl.txt". The output should have this form:
"/path/01/A.dat
bad-el#01
bad-el#02
[code]....
I know already how to find out the dat files containg a certain string
Code:
c=/path/
grep -R --include="*.dat" "Elements with small area" $c | cut -d: -f1>> ErrorEl.txt
but I don't know then how to get the element numbers(16294 and 17889 in the example above)
I would like a command or a bash script that search all files in all sub, modified last 12 hours, in /var/logs and that contains "alfa" or "bravo". The output should be filename of the file or files that contains that.
how to search for those files which contain word "AM_COLLECTION=22". I need to know all the files with this string. ( I know the grep command can do it but either
I am web developer I have this command find . -exec grep "Improve your score" '{}' ; -print for searching through files . I found this command but now i would like to tweak it to gain more out of it.
I'm trying to search the string "Listen" in a few files (config files). I madefind /apps/apache* -exec grep -H Listen {} ;but the result list is very long. How i make a "grep -v" whith this command?
I know grep can search recursively (ie through all subdirectories to the bottom of the directory tree), but is it possible to ask grep to only search say, 3 levels down? That means the current directory, any directories in the current directory, and within any directories within those?
I'm wanting to mod some PHP files across a hierarchy and thought I'd drive it with find + grep + xargs
I built up a command line which I was confident would do the job, but now can't save the results.
First I tried this:
Code: find . -name *.php | xargs grep serialize | cut -d: -f1| sort -u | xargs sed -i s/serialize/serialise/g but that didn't work: Code: sed: illegal option -- i so I thought I'd try using Code:
[Syenite] RegionUUID = 8fc56fdd-0afd-4074-9432-0ae8f42b799f Location = 9992,10007 InternalAddress = 0.0.0.0 InternalPort = 9000 AllowAlternatePorts = False ExternalHostName = 71.171.21.9 What I need to do is find out what the IP address is after "ExternalHostName ="
After that I will need to compare that IP to whatismyip and if it's different then replace it but that is easy to do with sed. I just can't figure this simple hurdle out.
I want to run a script that runs after every 15 minutes that i will do using crontab. But in script want to search a string from the last 15 minutes logs in log file containing data of whole day.
how i can search the string according to time difference that is logs from from current time and current time - 15 minutes.
Sample logs are as follows:
26-Aug-2010 16:38:46,055|9172310750|subscription_app|31ba267e%3A12aadd47bdc%3A50e9|ChargeAmount|ChargingIntercep tor - subscriber details processed sucessfully- {arg0.referenceCode=balanceEnquiry:true;subsChannel:Unknown;channelType:Subscription;transactionId:3
But the problem is that in this case i just wanted to append "/home/dest" for which I could easily escape "/" with just two "", but I wonder if i have a long path like "/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/i/j" I will have to escape so many /. Is there any other way by which I can avoid escaping forward slash.
I tried following:
But receiving follo error
Bareword found where operator expected at -e line 1, near "s/destination-path=/'destination-path=/home" syntax error at -e line 1, near "s/destination-path=/'destination-path=/home" Bad name after dest' at -e line 1. tried with enclosing in double quotes as well but in vain
I am writing a shell script that finds all files named <myFile> in a directory <dir> or any of its subdirectories, recursively. I also need to take care of symbolic links that may form cycles, to avoid infinite loops. I am not supposed to use find command for the same
I started writing the code but got stuck. I thought using recursion may be a smart way, but its not working.
is there a recursive shell or Perl script to delete files with the same name as the parent folder? i wish to include the starting folder name as argument to the script.
Moving right along, I have a folder of MP3 files containing various Movie sound tracks and scores. I'm using Audio Tag Tool to tag all the files at once with an "Artist" of "Soundtrack", and to inherit the "Title" tag from the file name. After that, I will rename all the files (Using Audio Tag Tool -- awesome program, btw) with the format "<Artist> - <Title>.mp3"
The problem, is many of my files already contain the string "Soundtrack", which would be redundant. I happen to be a perfectionist, so I'm unable to ignore it and move on. Hence my question to you fine folk: I want to delete all instances of "soundtrack" (-i case irrelevant) in the filenames before I go through the above steps. But, its not quite that simple. This is a sample of some of the file names:
I have a mail.log file, of which I want to redirect only the search strings of the sender from=<example.sender@exampledomain.com> and the size size=4537 to a file.
In every case the sender string starts as from=<> and the size string starts as size=
What would be the grep command to redirect only the two search strings to a .txt file?
I'm trying to search all .log files in ~/.irssi/irclogs/ and it's sub directories for the string 'irssi' and I had though the command I'd used for something similar before was.How should I edit the command, and is it possible to output every line found containing the string to file?
how to search for a specific string of text inside an html document. I then want to cut out that specific data that the field or string contains. I want to do a shellscript that makes this function automaticly.
For example:
# #Here i want to find the field "town" inside the html/java and then cut #out the town name from it and paste that to an file. # #
im tryin to make a tool in visual C++ which will take an input string through a text box,then it will compare tht string with a text file containing data and display the matched results in list box.
If I runls -R1I get a recursive listing of all files under the current directory.However, if I dols -R1 *.avi, ie I want to search only for files with the file descriptor .avi, I get an errorQuote:ls: cannot access *.avi:No such file or directorySo it seems I am using ls incorrectly. What's the correct way to use wild card pattern matching when using the -R switch? Or maybe that isn't possible?
What's the easiest way to search for a string in a text file in GNOME or on the console? I used to do this in kfindfile back on KDE.I'd like to avoid downloading something like desktop search if at all possible because I'm away for the holidays and stuck on a dialup connection.
Way to test permissions on all files/folders into a folder recursive, then if those are not user:user then do :
Code: chown user:user thatconcernedfile
The problem with that
Code: chown user:user -R /folder
is that it is doing changes on file permissions whihch are already ok. If you wanna maintain a specific permission on a folder this is really not good this :
Code: while [ 1 ] ; do chown user:user -R /folder # /folder contains 6.0 Tb sleep 2s done
