    Problem to enter into a directory from value

    Hi! When I try this:

    Code:
    HTTPD=`locate httpd.conf`
DOCUMENT_ROOT=`more $HTTPD | grep DocumentRoot | grep -v '^#' | awk '{print $2}'`
cd $DOCUMENT_ROOT
    I see:

    -bash: cd: "/var/www/html": No such file or directory

    I check my outputs and are:

    Code:
    echo $HTTPD
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

echo $DOCUMENT_ROOT
"/var/www/html"
    What's exactly happend? Bash can't enter into a directory from value?
    thanks!

    Try

    Code:
    DOCUMENT_ROOT=`more $HTTPD | grep DocumentRoot | grep -v '^#' | awk '{print $2}' | tr '"' ' '`
    I think it's the double quote marks (")
    In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?
