Nested If in Unix
Hi!!
Code:
LookVar=`find . -name "${input}" | wc -w`
if [ $LookVar -ge 1 ]
then
cd $input
rm -f *
ftp -n -i $HostName << EOF
quote USER $User
quote PASS $Password
cd $Path
SoLookVar=`find . -name "${input}" | wc -w`
echo $SoLookVar
if [ $SoLookVar -ge 1 ]
then
cd $input
mget ./*
bye
EOF
chmod 775 ./*
cd $Path
fi
if [ $SoLookVar -eq 0 ]
then
echo "Oops!The services are not available in the source"
bye
EOF
fi
fi

I' ve written a script as above but while executing it throws an error
nfscript.sh[6]: 0403-057 Syntax error at line 37 : `fi' is not expected.

Mod Comment Please start using [CODE] tags for code listings, console ouput, ... Also, indenting your code would make it much more readable, and thus easier to debug.

As the first if condition present b/w the EOF, then it is not able to recognize the fi

Code:
 
ftp -n -i $HostName << EOF
quote USER $User
quote PASS $Password
cd $Path
SoLookVar=`find . -name "${input}" | wc -w`
echo $SoLookVar
if [ $SoLookVar -ge 1 ]
then
cd $input
mget ./*
bye
EOF
