The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Shell script to rename and copy/move files based on creation date

Asked by ftsao in Shell Scripting, Unix Systems Programming

Tags: , , , ,

My shell scripting knowledge is limited and I'm having difficulty writing a script to do the following:

- rename log files based on their creation date (e.g. from access_log.1.gz to access_log.2007-09-27.gz)
- copy the renamed log files into a web accessible folder (e.g. /home/someuser)
- move the renamed log files into an archived log files folder (/var/log/httpd/[access_log_archives]/)

Right now I'm doing all this manually by listing the files using "ls -lht --time-style=long-iso a*" then creating the linux commands to rename the files using a PHP script, then copying/moving the files and so on.

Any help is appreciated.Start Free Trial
