1 Hi,
2
3 I am having a problem doing a simple sort. The sorting just does not
4 work with the command sort.
5
6 In a directory are the following files,
7
8 access.log.0
9 access.log.1
10 access.log.10
11 access.log.11
12 access.log.12
13 access.log.13
14 access.log.14
15 access.log.15
16 access.log.16
17 access.log.17
18 access.log.18
19 access.log.19
20 access.log.2
21 access.log.20
22 access.log.21
23 access.log.3
24 access.log.4
25 access.log.5
26 access.log.6
27 access.log.7
28 access.log.8
29 access.log.9
30
31 Did the following command,
32
33 #ls access.log.* | sort -n +0.11
34
35 Got the following error,
36 #sort: open failed: +0.11: No such file or directory
37
38 What am I doing wrong?
39
40 Tried puting the list of files into a file called "testing" then did the
41 following command,
42 #sort -n +0.11 testing
43
44 Still same error,
45 #sort: open failed: +0.11: No such file or directory
46
47 How to correct this?
