Can't understand script output
New to korn shel1 and having an issue. The following is suppose to read the parameter values from files in a source directory and then pass them on to a log file in a different directory, The ArchiveTracker scripts is suppose to call the parameterreader script to exact the parameter values and pass them on to a log file.

But I keep getting the following when I run the script.
Code:
-bash: ./: is a directory


code
Code:
 #/bin/ksh
  
 #ArchiveTracker

SourceLocation='pwd'
 TrackerLocation=~/Scripts/Test/Tracker
  

 
  
 LOGFILE=$TrackerLocation/processing.log
  
 rm -f $LOGFILE
 touch $LOGFILE
  

 
 for sfile in $SourceLocation/*
 do
         if [ ! -s "$SourceLocation/$file" ];
         then
  
         echo Step 2: Processing $file >>  $LOGFILE
  
        while read line < $file
        do
                 PARNAME=`echo $line | awk -f "=" '{print  $1}'`
  
                 PARVALUE`parameterreader $file  $PARNAME`
                 echo  file $PARNAME >>  LOGFILE
         done
  
         sftp -p "$SourceLocation/$file  $TargetLocation/$file"
         ret_code=$?
         if [$ret_code != 0]; then
         printf "error : [%d] when executing command:"  $ret_code
         #exit $ret_code
         else
         echo Step 3: Writing  $TrackerLocation/$file
         touch "$TrackerLocation/$file"
         fi
 else
         echo Step 2: $file previously  processed
 fi
  
 done

code

code
Code:
#/bin/ksh
 #parameterreader script
  
  
 PARVALUE=`grep $2 $1 | awk -f "=" '{print  $1}'`
  
 echo $PARVALUE

locale::codes::script

Locale::Codes::Script(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  Locale::Codes::Script(3)

NAME

       Locale::Codes::Script - standard codes for script identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Codes::Script;

	  $script  = code2script('phnx');		      # 'Phoenician'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician'); 	      # 'Phnx'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician',
				 LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC);	      # 115

	  @codes   = all_script_codes();
	  @scripts = all_script_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Codes::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924
       four-letter codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. 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:

	  $script = code2script('phnx','alpha');
	  $script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA
	   This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician.  It also includes additions to this set
	   included in the IANA language registry.

	   The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used.

	   This is the default code set.

       num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC
	   This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician.

ROUTINES

       code2script ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       script_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_script_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_script_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_alias	( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_code_alias	( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
