Does anyone knows how to fix this error to be able to run the sql script successfully?
The problem is rather simple: you indented your code and indented the "here-document" too, but this is not allowed. When you write "process << EOF" the shell will search for a line starting with " EOF" and interpret everything between your statement and this line as part of the document.

As you have indented your source code you have changed this closing line of your here-document to several spaces and only then the "EOF" and this makes this line invalid. Example:

Code:
# will work:
some_process <<EOF
blah blah
EOF

# will not work:
some_process << EOF
blah blah
     EOF

I hope this helps.

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
