Shell script error " syntax error: unexpected end of file "

[getgood123]

Hello,

there's probably some simple solution to this problem but i don't know it. I have tried Dos2unix.

Check to see that your () and {} are all matching

try running the script with the -x switch like this:


bash -x ./scriptname


then it will print out every line before it runs the command, if it runs no commands at all check the first line looks like #!/bin/sh or whatever shell its written in for start

lemme know what it outputs

Check to see that your () and {} are all matching

also check that the `, ', " are also matched and also the [] are matched as well.
