Simple issue, what is wrong?

I had this working a few days ago but I since changed it. Heres the code

Code:
x=1
while [x = 1] 1 2 3 4 5 6
1=$(ps -ef | grep process | awk '{ print $2}')
if [ -n "$1" ]
 then
      echo "The database is accepting connections..."
  echo "Now I will check the next process"
  
   2=$(ps -ef | grep process1 | awk '{ print $2}')
    if [ -n "$2" ]
     then
          echo "Start The Process 4"
     else
          echo "Start Process3"
      cd /dir/dir/
      StartProcess3.sh
      sleep 10
      echo "Processes 3 started, start process 4!"
    fi
 else
      echo "The database isn't accepting connections"
  sleep 30
fi

I run this script and get this

Code:
test.sh[2]: syntax error at line 8 : `if' unmatched
