Fix Information
Issue is with the Internal Field Separation (IFS) environment variable from /bin/scp-checkfp file. Following is an example for IFS:
IFS=$"\n" -->
This means, it expects a string character.
It should expect a character value to read the paths from the SCP files.
IFS=$'\n' -->
This means, it expects a character.
