Shell Error Debug
Today I encountered the following error while writing a shell script:
line 225: unexpected EOF while looking for matching \`”‘
line 233: syntax error: unexpected end of file
I see the "
are matched after checked the codes seriously.
The codes of number line 225 is:
if [ ${options} = "ALL" ]; then
Obviously reported wrong line. It’s hardto see the error line by line as there is a lot of codes in the front.
Since there is a problem with the end of the file, I put a "
symbol at the end of the file and runt it. It reported the correct error line number now.
It’s line:
echo "${PACKAGENAME" >> ${file}
Miss a }
when refer a variable.
So, if you encounter similar problems in the future, you can try adding some symbols to debug, which maybe helpful.
