Corrected Syntax Errors
Unlike the other person who posted a reply to you, there is NO need to post the "relevant" portion of your script. Nevertheless, using the script structure that you have created, I think that you will find the following commands to work:
RUNDATE=`date '+%b %e'`
Filepmtdate=`ls -l filename | awk '{print $6,$7}'`
if [ "$Filepmtdate" = "$RUNDATE" ]
then
ENTER COMMANDS WITHOUT THE "do" command.
fi
The main changes that I have made, in case you did not catch them, was
1. Replace the parentheses with single, right-directed quotes.
2. Add a space between the %b and %e
3. Change the "if" statement line to the appropriate format as I have shown.
4. Remove the "do" statement after the if statement. "do" statements typically follow "for" commands.
I ran a sample script with the above format to output the line "Test completed successfully. The dates are the same" and it worked just fine. Take care.
