Re: find -exec problem

's ok, I've found it myself - should be a space between {} and \;. obviously ;) sorry for the noise.. R ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Agar" To: "SuSE e-List" Sent: Monday, June 18, 2001 7:24 PM Subject: find -exec problem

hi,

I'd really appreciate some help with this prob: why does this command

find . -type d -exec chmod +x {}\;

generate the error "find: missing argument to -exec". what am I doing wrong?

it's intended to allow access all the current directory's sub directories, btw

ta, Rob
