![Rename Not Working [Closed]](https://docuprint.cloud68.co/uploads/rename-not-working-closed_1200.jpg)
I have a bunch of files with names like
... (Karton 1).jpeg
and would like to rename them recursively to:
... (brauner Karton).jpeg
I tried the following commands, which didn't work:
rename -v 's/Karton 1/brauner Karton/g' *
rename -v 's/Karton 1/brauner Karton/g' *.jpeg
According to a lot of examples this shouldn't be that hard. What am I doing wrong?
Aditional info: "Karton 1" would be "[B/b]ox 1" in English.

There are several versions of the rename command. Use rename --version to determine which you have, they use different syntax.
$ rename --version
/usr/bin/rename using File::Rename version 0.20
$ rename 's/\.jpeg$/.jpg/' *
$ rename --version
rename from util-linux 2.30.2
$ rename .jpeg .jpg *
