One thing I noticed is that there seems not to be a space between the double equal in the test and the "5" (hard to see without code tags).

Code:
#!/bin/bash
 a=5
 [[ "$a" == "5" ]] && echo "true" || echo "false"
#       ^ Need space here

Corona688's concerns still apply, but this is certainly causing issues too.
