I have following heapdump files
AppSrv01]# ls -ltr *heapdump*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 13 16:44 hbsbdheapdump.3436
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 13 16:44 hbsbdheapdump.3435

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 13 17:03 heapdump.dfsdf
now if I use
ls -ltr| grep heapdump*
I get following output
AppSrv01]# ls -ltr |grep heapdump*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 13 17:03 heapdump.dfsdf
But I use
ls -ltr |grep *heapdump*
I get no output. Could anybody help where is my mistake and how to search the heapdump files.
My expected output is
ls -ltr | grep *heapdump*
should give me

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 13 17:03 heapdump.dfsdf
due to some reason I could not use
ls -ltr *heapdump*
It looks like you're confusing glob patterns with regular expressions, which is what grep uses.
The correct way to print a list of files containing the word heapdump is like this:
printf '%s\n' *heapdump*
Here, *heapdump* is glob-expanded by the shell to match anything followed by "heapdump" followed by anything else. All the files that match the pattern are passed to printf, which prints each one followed by a newline.
If you want to filter the output of ls -ltr, then you can use:
ls -ltr *heapdump*
The same list of files will be passed to ls, which will print information about them.
Bear in mind that it is not recommended to attempt to parse the output of ls.

I have a folder with many jpg files, where each file name presents the creation time in the form of: "20220204T160311.746....jpg" ("..." represent additional data).
I'm trying to get all files created on the last X minutes. There are tons of results for such query if one asks Google, nevertheless, I'm getting weird results when trying the following:
find . -cmin -50 \( ! -iname "*.csv" ! -iname ".*" \) -ls | sort -n
the results do not start ok ("now" is 16:26):

How come in the middle it goes back from 15:49 to 16:26?
It happens on every query I'm running, unless it is on a short term like 10 min.
By default sort uses the first column. Use -k to specify column number to sort by.
find . -cmin -50 \( ! -iname "*.csv" ! -iname ".*" \) -ls | sort -n -k 7
I have lots of old log files in a directory, with apps logs generated every month to this directory. I want to use a script to remove only the last month old logs.
This is my file logsDir , these files are 0kb, i have created for question understanding

This is my logs.sh:
#!/bin/bash
Jan=Dec Feb=Jan Mar=Feb Apr=Mar May=Apr Jun=May Jul=Jun Aug=Jul Sep=Aug Oct=Sep Nov=Oct Dev=Nov
DIR=/logDir
cd $DIR
if [ $DIR -eq $PWD ]; then
PWD=$(pwd)
cmd=$(date |awk '{print $2}')
dat=$(ls -ltr |grep $cmd |awk '{print $9}')
rm -rf $dat
else
echo " enterend in the wrong dir"
fi
but it's failing to get that variable value Apr=Mar
This is the output, I'm trying to delete Apr files
[root#dasari9 /]# bash -x log.sh
+ Jan=Dec
+ Feb=Jan
+ Mar=Feb
+ Apr=Mar
+ May=Apr
+ Jun=May
+ Jul=Jun
+ Aug=Jul
+ Sep=Aug
+ Oct=Sep
+ Nov=Oct
+ Dev=Nov
+ DIR=/logDir
+ cd /logDir
++ pwd
+ PWD=/logDir
+ '[' /logDir == /logDir ']'
++ date
++ awk '{print $2}'
+ cmd=Apr
++ ls -ltr
++ grep '$Apr'
++ awk '{print $9}'
+ dat=
+ rm -rf
It seems like you're looking for an indirect variable reference. Your $cmd variable points to the variable $Apr and you want to use the value of $Apr.
Here's how you can do this (just the relevant lines):
cmd=$(date | awk '{print $2}')
eval month=\$$cmd
dat=$(ls -ltr | grep $month | awk '{print $9}')
The eval command resolves the indirect reference created by \$$cmd.

Perl is excellent language to store command output to variable
As I know bash isn’t support that
for example
my $value = qx(ls -ltr);
print $value;
it will print: ( example )
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 761 May 30 2014 ASon.conf
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 699 May 30 2014 ascpl
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 24 13:22 da
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Feb 25 08:08 vm-root

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 101 Mar 2 09:56 test
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 461340404 Mar 2 10:20 audin.log
the problem is that I write my code with bash
and I want to use the Perl add value in my bash script
so is it possible to combine the following line in my bash script?
my $value = qx(ls -ltr);
in way that when I print the value variable it will print the ls -ltr output
You don't need perl for this, your shell can handle it:
value=$(ls -ltr)
echo "$value"
The quotes when you echo are important.
In Perl:
$var = `shell command`;
$var = qx( shell command );
In sh:
var=`shell command`
var=$( shell command )
I'm using libevent for a program, I compile my program on two computers A and B, on A the execution is successful, but on B I got the following errors:
error while loading shared libraries: libevent-1.4.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
FYI:
A and B are with fedora system, on both A and B, I downloaded libevent-1.4.14b-stable.tar.gz, and install it through configure/make/make install.

why my program get this error on B and are there any solutions?
thanks!
Your "A" system has a symlink from /usr/lib/libevent-1.4.so.2 to /usr/local/lib/libevent-1.4.so.2 but system "B" does not. Chances are, if you create it then everything will start working.
The command should be as follows.
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libevent-1.4.so.2 /usr/lib/libevent-1.4.so.2
As an alternative, you can add /usr/local/lib to your library path as a test by exporting LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib as a temporary fix on system "B".

I have a shell script that accepts a file as a paramater and calculates figures based on the data in the file, i call the script like this
sh Calculate.sh MyFile
I want to run this shell script for every file in this directory.
How would i go about doing this, xargs ??
Have you tried the find command with execution ?
My sample will echo the files, but you can call a shell script with the filename as a parameter
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec echo {} \;
A simple for loop in the shell:
for file in *; do sh Calculate.sh "$file"; done
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f | xargs -n 1 -I % Calculate.sh %
./Calculate.sh 2012_04_{05..20}
