CentOS Linux release 7.8

Hello Erman,

I have created a bash script to copy files from 1 directory /archive to another directory voicenew. After copy, I will unzip the files.

The issue is if I store the current date in a variable (yesterday), the variable will store sysdate+1. For e.g, if today is 24, I will get error below

cp: cannot stat ‘/cdr/RECHARGE/recharge/archive/recharge/archive/*20210325*’: No such file or directory

Script:

cd /cdr/VOICE/VOICE/voice/voicenew/
find . -name "*.add" -print0 | xargs -0 rm
find . -name "*.gz" -print0 | xargs -0 rm

yesterday=$(date -d "$date  days" +"%Y%m%d")
cp /cdr/VOICE/VOICE/voice/archive/voice/archive/*$yesterday* /cdr/VOICE/VOICE/voice/voicenew/
y| find  /cdr/VOICE/VOICE/voice/voicenew/ -type f -exec gunzip {} +

Kindly advise.

Thanks,

Roshan
