If I use this LOBCODE=$( xmllint --xpath 'string(/dataTemplate/@name)' "$filename" ) Unknown option --xpath --> Usage : xmllint [options] XMLfiles ... Parse the XML files and output the result of the parsing --version : display the version of the XML library used --debug : dump a debug tree of the in-memory document and more..... and for LOBCODE=$( xml sel -t -v '/dataTemplate/@name' "$filename" ) it gives LPX-00202: could not open "sel" (error 200)

@ArunGoWdA The first error comes from an older version of xmllint. The second error comes from the fact that xml on your system is not XMLStarlet but some other program. Try xmlstarlet (after making sure that the program is actually installed), or upgrade your xmllint.
