Error in bash file

[Dwin123]

Hello friends,

I had written a script for a work session, whenever i try to run the script i am getting an error message which is as follows

line 6: syntax error near unexpected token

Can anyone help me out with this error message ?

Sure if you are getting line 6: syntax error near unexpected token, then it's an syntax error and i would be great if you can provide me your code so that i can help you out more in details.

Thank you for replying me, please look into the code and tell me where i had made very silly mistake

/ bin / sh

while [-n $ 1]

do

list = ls $ 1

for i in $ list

do

cat $ i>> basename $ i

rm $ i

done

shift 1

done

In you case can you tell me how you want to make the difference between

color = blue  and list = ls $ 1

If you want you can also replace

while [-n $ 1]
do
 .... $ 1
shift
done

by

for file in $ *
do
 .... $ file
done

I am also facing some issue with my bash file whenever i try to manage to isolate, i can't know from where it has come from and i had created this file from a long back here is the code for the same.

/ bin / bash
while [-n $ 1]
do
if [[-n $ 1]]
then
echo X $ 1X not null;
else
echo X $ 1X null;
fi
shift 1
done

There is no need to worry about because you had to replace a very small code which i had done for you and i am sure this will solve all your problem here is the code for the same

/ bin / bash
while [-n "$1"]
do
if [[-n $ 1]]
then
echo X $ 1X not null;
else
echo X $ 1X null;
fi
shift 1
done
