Edit Question
Title
Body
I want to search a configuration file for this expression: "central.database". I then want to change the setting associated with "central.database" to "SQLTEST". The layout of the config file would look like this initially: central.database = SQLFIRSTTEST This is what i want it to look like after the sed replacement: central.database = SQLTEST I am doing this in a bash script, any suggestions, recommendations or alternative solutions are welcome! (Actually both central.database and SQLTEST come from bash variables here.) My current code (third attempt): sshRetValue=$(ssh -p "35903" -i $HOME/sshids/idrsa-1.old ${1} <<EOF sed -i "s/^\($CENTRAL_DB_NAME\s*=\s*\).*\$/\1$CENTRAL_DB_VALUE/" /home/testing.txt; echo $? EOF ) Error message: Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal. sed: -e expression #1, char 58: unknown option to `s' -bash: line 3: EOF: command not found
