cp

I am a newbie in php, mysql. I have written a hello.php script, which I am trying to copy into /var/www directory (and will later want to open it through web browser). The problem with the same is that I am not allowed to save/write any files in /var/www despite me being the root. I tried implementing steps in this question, but I get the following error when I process the third line find /var/www/ -type f -exec chmod g+w '{}' ';' chmod: changing permissions of `/var/www/index.html': Operation not permitted I know symlink is also an option. I would want to be able to write/copy files directly

This question already has an answer here: How to pass command output as multiple arguments to another command 4 answers I'm taking a unix/linux class and we have yet to learn variables or functions. We just learned some basic utilities like the flag and pipeline, output and append to file. On the lab assignment he wants us to find the largest files and copy them to a directory. I can get the 5 largest files but I don't know how to pass them into cp in one command ls -SF | grep -v / | head -5 | cp ? Directory It would be: cp `ls -SF | grep -v / | head -5` Directory assuming that the pipeline is

I want to copy multiple files from a specific directory once I am in another directory. To clarify I want to do the following, at once (one command): cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file1 . cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file2 . cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file3 . cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file4 . I can't use cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/* . because in dir2 there are n files (n>4) By the way, I'm using bash . Thanks. cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file[1234] . or (in Bash) cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/file{1..4} . If the file names are non-contiguous, you can use cp ../dir5/dir4/dir3/dir2/{march,april,may} . If all

I'm trying to write a Bash script that will overwrite an existing directory. I have a directory foo/ and I am trying to overwrite bar/ with it. But when I do this: cp -Rf foo/ bar/ a new bar/foo/ directory is created. I don't want that. There are two files in foo/ ; a and b . There are files with same names in bar/ as well. I want the foo/a and foo/b to replace bar/a and bar/b . You can do this using -T option in cp . See Man page for cp . -T, --no-target-directory treat DEST as a normal file So as per your example, following is the file structure. $ tree test test |-- bar | |-- a | `-- b `--

I am having some issues to copy a folder with files in that folder into another folder. Command cp -r doesn't copy files in the folder. Pierre Salagnac The option you're looking for is -R . cp -R path_to_source path_to_destination/ If destination doesn't exist, it will be created. -R means copy directories recursively . You can also use -r since it's case-insensitive. Note the nuances with adding the trailing / as per @muni764's comment . Alex W You are looking for the cp command. You need to change directories so that you are outside of the directory you are trying to copy. If the directory

I want to copy a file from my Ubuntu host to Docker container. I use Docker 1.6.2 from 14.04 LTS repository.
