I have a trouble in my script when i use EOF inside block if.
If i use EOF whitout block if I don´t have problem.
Guys any ideas?
Sorry for my terrible English.

#!/bin/sh
set -xv

HOST='ftp.fiction.com.br'
USER='fictionuser'
PASS='fictionpass'
FILE='ftpteste.txt'
busca=`find ftpteste.txt`;
if [ "$busca" = "$FILE" ]; then
echo Okay File it exists
ftp -v -n $HOST <<-EOF
quote USER $USER
quote PASS $PASS
put $FILE
quit
EOF
else
echo Don´t have file in the folder
fi
exit

If I understand you correct here, it's the term EOF which is choking your if/else runthrough, have you tried calling it something else, ie:

#!/bin/sh
set -xv

HOST='ftp.fiction.com.br'
USER='fictionuser'
PASS='fictionpass'
FILE='ftpteste.txt'
busca=`find ftpteste.txt`;
if [ "$busca" = "$FILE" ]; then
  echo Okay File it exists
  ftp -v -n $HOST <<-EOC
    quote USER $USER
    quote PASS $PASS
    put $FILE
    quit
  EOC
else
  echo Don´t have file in the folder
fi
exit

Hello Redhead, I tried your suggestion but the trouble is equal.

Then on a different approach, have you tried with ncftpput forinstance ?

#!bin/sh
set -xv

HOST='ftp.fiction.com.br'
USER='fictionuser'
PASS='fictionpass'
FILE='ftpteste.txt'
if [ -f $FILE ]; then
  echo "OK file exists"
  if [ -r $FILE ]; then
    echo "OK file is readable"
    ncftpput -u $USER -p $PASS $HOST . $FILE 2>&1 /dev/null
    if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
      echo "Error uploading file"
    else
      echo "OK file uploadet"
    fi
  else
    echo "Error file is unreadable"
  fi
else
  echo "Error file does not exist"
fi

Hi,

I obtain the solution for this trouble, I remove the white space before
ftp -v -n $HOST <<-EOF and
EOF

Thank you!
