sed: unterminated 's' command`

Question

I\'m writing a nice regex to replace some IP\'s in a text file.

sed -r \"s/[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9]{1,3}\\.[0-9]{1,3}/${APP_IP}/g\" /path/to/my/file
         


        

Answer 1

SOLVED: Seems to be working when I set the variable $APP_IP manually to the IP under test. If I capture the variable from the output (of a ping) it gives the error. Must be special characters in the variable. Thanks guys.
