Bash script reading text file - No such file Error

Question

I'm writing a script to read a simple text file.

But I get only a "No such file" message.

The file exist and has proper access rigths

the code I'm using is:

Ficheiro="mensagem"
while read linha; do
    echo $linha
done < Ficheiro

you may get the same error message even after including the $ sign, if your file isnt in the same directory. You might try specifying the absolute path. — j0h, May 6, 2013 at 16:16
