I have been trying to execute the following UNIX shell script which is not working. I am running it by KornShell (ksh).
echo $?;
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
failed $LINENO-2 $5 $6
fi
failed()
{
echo "$0 failed at line number $1";
echo "moving $2 to failed folder"
}
This is giving an error saying Syntax error:then unexpected.
. Basically I have to check for the last executed ksh script's highest/last statement's return code and if it is not equal to zero I have to call function failed with the given parameters. I tried putting semicolon before then but that also did not work.
Can you please help?
Edit1: Based on the inputs I changed code. Still the same problem exists.
ksh ../prescript/Pre_process $1 $2 $3
rc=$?;
if [[ $rc -ne 0 ]];then
echo "failed";
exit 1;
Edit2: It is working for the then part by using double squared brackets. I feel I used code of bash script for ksh. I am facing problem in function call of failed. Please let me know appropriate way of function call in ksh for this example
This looks like bash rather than ksh
failed() {
echo "$0 failed at line number $1";
echo "moving $2 to failed folder"
}
if [[ $? -ne 0 ]]
then
failed $LINENO-2 $5 $6
fi
