Question

I had much luck last time I submitted a question so here goes: I am trying to debug a somewhat large BASH script when I get the following error:

./test.sh: line 418: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
./test.sh: line 427: syntax error: unexpected end of file

The code below starts at line 400:

    echo "###########################################################"
    echo
;;
4)
    culebra_carriers
    get_month
    get_day
    logs_cdrs
    logs_wap
    get_mdn

    echo
    echo "###########################################################"
    echo
    echo "Searching for activity of $mobileNumber on $MON $DAY......."
    echo
    zgrep $mobileNumber $HOME/culebrapeak/$LOGCDR/$CULEB/$MON/$WAPLOG
    echo
    echo "###########################################################"
    echo
;;
esac
done
}

clear
main_menu

How do I make this error go away? It looks like I have the double quotes in all the right places… but this is only my 4th or 5th bash script… so please go easy on me.

Answer 1

I was, indeed, missing a double quote at the top of my script. Thanks to all for the help!
