Heya Just quote the rest of the command args like this find /path/* -name "*.sql" -exec mysql "-ppassword -h <" {} \; Liz On 9 March 2010 16:19, Peter Reutemann <fracpete(a)gmail.com> wrote:
Thanks
I just tried the following variations with the following results.
ARGON:/home # find /path/* -name "*.sql" -exec mysql -p password -h < {} \; -bash: {}: No such file or directory
Don't use a "*" in the search path. Unless you have a directory "/path" your search won't find anything. You have to use "/home/path" or, if you're already located in "/home", "path" by itself.
ARGON:/home/ # find /path/ -name "*.sql" -exec mysql -p password -h < {} \; -bash: {}: No such file or directory
Same path problem.
ARGON:/home/ # find /path/* -exec mysql -p password -h < {} \; -bash: {}: No such file or directory
"*" and path problem.
