Hi all,

My scripts looks like this .. when i execute this script its says file does not exist even though file is present physically and if the file does not present in the file system then the output is null.

I am wrong somewhere .. ??

echo " enter file "
read name
for i in `find /apps12i -type f -name $name -printf %f `
do
if [ -e $i ]
then
echo "file exists"
else
echo "not exists "
fi
done

Regards

Bryan.
