Take the tour ×  I have a problem producing filtering out
hanzoMollusc (2)from my grep.
https://node.hanzo.com/production/application/ (1)
https://node.hanzoMollusc.com/Messaging/Receiver (2)  My grep
command is this for (2) which is working just fine.
/usr/xpg4/bin/grep -E 'node.hanzoMollusc.*Exception' diag* |
grep -c 2013-03-28  Problem is if I wanted to search for (1) I
need to modify the grep command a bit and use -F where its
stated in the manual  "Matches using fixed strings. Treats  each
pattern  specified as a string instead of a regular expression"
This is what I have come up so far... which is not working....
/usr/xpg4/bin/grep -F
'https://node.hanzo.com/application/*Exception' diag* | grep -c
2013-03-28  My problem lies in the domain part which is
node.hanzo and node.hanzoMollusc that is why I didn't use -E on
(1). Can anyone help me to fix this.   I was able to get what I
want exactly with a few tweaks from Gilles example. Actually he
was right I tried reading my question and it wasn't clea
