hey mark.. can you list your entire script... -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Mark Haney Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2007 8:13 AM To: For users of Fedora Subject: BASh help I've got a script that's not behaving itself. I know it's something silly, but I can't figure it out. The script is just a for loop that runs through a text file list of files (/directory/filename format) and does an 'ls' on each one. The problem is, I /want/ the script to NOT find those files, i.e., those files shouldn't be there. That part works, but I can't dump the output of that into a text file. Basically ls dumps all the 'file or directory not found' straight to the console and not to the text file when I redirect output to it: ./missingfiles.sh > testfile.txt I get this output: ls: cannot access /home2/test/20070829/KVNX20070829_225943_744_3.bz2: No such file or directory to the console and not the text file. How do I fix that? -- Recedite, plebes! Gero rem imperialem!
