General :: Extracting Text From File (Apache Access Log)
Apr 23, 2011There are some log files that I wish to get some information from (Apache Access Log) but it is huge! All I need as of right now is any information from date and time A to date and time B. What commands can I use to extract this information from the access_log and put it into another file with just that information? I created a file called "access_info" by doing
Code:
touch access_info
but I was not sure where to go from there.

Jan 13, 2010I have to delete a certain line of text from the a textfile via ubuntu's shell scripting.I have done research, and it seems that most people advocate the usage of sed /d option. sed makes does not edit the text file. Hence, most options I discovered involved the use of a temporary variable/textfile and then overwriting the old file with the temporary new file. Is there anyway whereby I can bypass the use of temporary storage containers? I hope there is any magical combination of commands to edit the file directly.

Programming :: Formatting Fields And Text Being Displayed From Text File?
Feb 9, 2011I want to display the contents of a particular log file (simple text file, I mean in Linux). But there is a problem: The contents need to be organized in a fixed format. Have a look at this log file:
sampleLog.txt
Code:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!
[code]....
So, while displaying the contents of above file on a web page, I want to format the field names found in the log file: User Name:, Reported Problems Description:, and Remarks:. These fields may contain a variable length of text and no specific line number is assumed for them to appear on.
The desired output should look like this:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!

Well, what I am trying to do may sound wierd to some of you. The filed "Reported Problems Description:" can possible contain text which embeds colon (.

Jul 7, 2010I am an astronomy student using Ubunut 10.04, and a frequent user of IRAF ( an *nix image processing application geared toward astronomy). IRAF produces, amongst other things, a text document with various values on it (example below).
Code: K IRAF = NOAO/IRAFV2.14.1 version %-23s
#K USER = name %-23s
#K HOST = Balthazar computer %-23s
#K DATE = 2010-04-29 yyyy-mm-dd %-23s
[Code]...
Now, the information I'm actually interested is the X and Y coordinates down towards the bottom (in this case, 973.505, 271.474).
I have about 800 of these output text files, and I was wondering if there's any sort of script or command that could go through them (presumably reading from a list of file names), and extract the coordinates. Ideally, the output would be a list of coordinates (i.e. X-coordinate, Y-coordinate).
Programming :: Algorithm - File System Block Number For Immediate Read
May 20, 2010algorithm:breada
input: file system block number for immediate read
file system block number for asynchronous read
output:buffer containing data for immediate read {
if(first block not in cache) {
get buffer for first block
if(buffer data not valid)
initiate disk read }
if(second block not in cache) {
get buffer for second block)
if(buffer data valid) //line 1
release buffer else
initiate disk read //line 2 }
if(first block was originally in cache) //line 3 {
read first block
return buffer }
sleep (event first buffer contains valid data)
return buffer }
Here is an algorithm for block read algorithm. I have problem in
line 1: If buffer data is valid why is it releasing the buffer?
line 2: If buffer data valid why is it initiating disk read. It should have read directly from buffer?
line 3: It should be the first condition as if it is there in cache then it should return it without delay?
Programming :: Script To Copy Paste Text From One File To Another (overwriting Part Of The File)?

Dec 21, 2010I have a file with 5000 lines. it is a list of books authors, series and titles. all lines start with the author names, than there is a dash (-) than the series name, a dash again and the title of the book.
The problem I encounter is that sometime there is a series, sometime not, and as I try to enter this list in a database, I wanted to create a cvs file to import into mysql.
ex:
The best would be to be able to add in the second line, a "space dash space" just after the author name, but how to make sure it does not do it to the first line as well.
If I could separate all line with 2 dash, (grep ?) then I would be able to do a simple replace, and change the single dash into two.
