Last updated: July 24 2016 Unix/Linux FAQ: How do I solve the problem of the omitting directory error in unix “bad interpreter” error message? Sometimes when you take a file from a DOS/Windows system no such file or directory error in unix and move it to a Linux or Unix system you’ll have problems with the dreaded ^M character. This happened recently when I bad number error in unix moved an Ant script from a Windows system to my Mac OS X system. When I tried to run the shell script under the Mac Terminal I got this “bad interpreter” error message: : bad bad substitution error in unix interpreter: No such file or directory I couldn’t figure out what the message meant at first, but finally it hit me: the dreaded ^M problem. Sure enough, I opened the file in the vim editor, like this: vi -b myfile.sh Opening the file in vi/vim with the “binary” switch (-b) I saw the extra ^M at the end of each line. I then issued one of my favorite vi commands to remove

all these ^M characters, and the script magically began working. Here’s that magic vi command: :1,$s/^M//g Note that you don't really type a ^ character and then a M character to generate that command. You actually type [Control][v] and then [Control][m] to create the necessary character. I don’t know the genesis of this, but if you'll type those two keystrokes I think you’ll see that it works as described. linux-unix unix shell script no such linux interpreter file directory binary bad interpreter A Bourne shell script that loops through all files Remove non-printable ASCII characters from a file with this Unix command The Linux chmod command How to read and write from a file in a Linux bash shell script A Bash for loop to iterate over a file that has blank spaces in its lines Linux du command examples books i’ve written Don’t let the programming jerks get you down I Still Forgive You “Tell them I was a writer” Doctors who specialize in mast cell activation disease Most doctors don’t know what mast cell activation disease is Mast cells don’t die, they just multiply Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on January 19, 2010 - 11:15am Permalink dos2unix filename works dos2unix filename works too...

The find command shows the file is present, but still I can't think of a way to delete it. Here are my attempts: Here you see both ls and find agree we have a directory, rl]$ ls mikeaâ??cnt rl]$ find -maxdepth 1 -type d -empty -print0 ./mikeaâcnt But I can't delete it: rl]$ find -maxdepth 1 -type d -empty -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f -v rm: cannot remove `./mikeaâ\302\201\302\204cnt': Is a directory rl]$ ls mikeaâ??cnt I can cd to it though and it's empty: rl]$ cd mikeaâ^Á^Äcnt/ mikeaâ^Á^Äcnt]$ ls mikeaâ^Á^Äcnt]$ pwd .../rl/mikeaâcnt mikeaâ^Á^Äcnt]$ cd ../ rl]$ ls mikeaâ??cnt see below that is not a simple file but a directory, plus ls behaves funny after the rm -rf it says it can't find the file then lists it straight after

Solved Using find command gives bad directory error in AIX Posted on 2011-02-20 Unix OS 1 Verified Solution 8 Comments 4,328 Views Last Modified: 2013-11-17 Hello, a non-root user is getting the following error when running the below find command. $ find /center/certsc/cdir -name "worklist*.dat" find: bad directory $ I believe this might be due to read permissions for the world for /center/certsc please advise Below are the permissions. # ls -ld /center/certsc drwxrwx--x 25 certsc certsc 4096 Aug 02 2010 /center/certsc # ls -ld /center/certsc/cdir drwxrwxrwx 2 certsc certsc 102400 Feb 09 08:10 /center/certsc/cdir Also i was unable to find a file by this name "worklist*.dat" in /center/certsc/cdir as indicated in the find command above. Could that be causing the error. Please advise on that as well. 0 Question by:assistunix Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Google LVL 68 Active today Best Solution bywoolmilkporc Well, I can't explain why it shouldn't work for non-root users but would work for root, sorry.
