I am using a simple bash script to search for all .csv files in a directory with a certain name and convert them to .xlsx. After that, the script removes the .csv files.
I am using ssconvert for the conversion. Here's the code:



for f in TEST_*.CSV
do
ssconvert "$f" "$f%.CSV.xlsx"
done

rm TEST_*.CSV


The problem is, when I open the resulting xlsx files, Excel displays the following message:




"We found a problem with some content nnnn.xlsx. Do you want us to try and recover as much as we can?"




Since this is going to be used in a fully automated process I cannot depend on this manual step to try to recover the file. Does anyone know why this is happening?
