@György-Farkas
Thank you very much. I never thought of that. I'll try it and let it know. I wrote it in the editor.

Thanks @György-Farkas

When I run the script, I see this:

root@Omega-FAF7:~# sh /root/case2.sh                                                                                                                
: not found.sh: line 2: 
: not found.sh: line 4: 
/root/case2.sh: line 5: syntax error: unexpected word (expecting "in")
root@Omega-FAF7:~#

Thanks @György-Farkas

The default shell is indeed 'ash'. I changed the shebang to #!/bin/ash but I've got the same result.

@György-Farkas

Thanks for your tips. I changed the € into # and the quotes after echo. The else was for having a default (which I would change later in the first if => $1 = 1 OR $1 IS NULL).

if  [ "$1" = "1" ]
then 
  echo "##########################################"
  echo "## launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... ##"
  echo "##########################################"
  url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3
  
elif [ "$1" = "2" ]
then
  echo "####################################"
  echo "## launching webradio Topradio... ##"
  echo "####################################"
  url=http://jwmp3.topradio.be/topradio.mp3
fi

I still have the same error:
####################################
'## stop playing sounds... ##
####################################
: no process killed
parameter
: not found: line 8:
webradio.sh: line 36: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "then")
root@Omega-FAF7:~#

Even if I run the most basic script I get the same error:

#!/bin/bash
# Basic if statement
if [ 1 = 1 ] 
then
  echo "Equal"
fi

if.sh: line 6: syntax error: unexpected "fi" (expecting "then")

I also tried to change #!/bin/bash to #!/bin/sh or leave it but saddly the same result.

Also a simple case statement doesn't work:

#!/bin/sh

# use case statement to make decision
case $choose in
   "one") echo "First option.";;
   "two") echo "Second option.";;
   "three") echo "Third option.";;
   "four") echo "Fourth option.";;
   "five") echo "Fifth option.";;
   "six") echo "Last option.";;
   *) echo "Sorry, no parameter found!";;
esac

root@Omega-FAF7:~# sh case.sh "one"
: not foundne 2:
case.sh: line 4: syntax error: unexpected word (expecting "in")

Do I need to install something for using this statements?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply. I tried both: the then on the second line and with a ; but it is the same:
if [ "$1" = "1" ]
then
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3

elif [ "$1" = "2" ]
then
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Topradio... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://jwmp3.topradio.be/topradio.mp3
#else
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3
fi

result: line 36: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "then")

and
if [ "$1" = "1" ]; then
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3

elif [ "$1" = "2" ]
then
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Topradio... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://jwmp3.topradio.be/topradio.mp3
#else
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3
fi

but result also in line 35: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "then")

I really don't know what I do wrong.

Best regards,

Hello,

I'm just using my Onion Omega2+ and an asolutely newbie. I made my first very simple script to play a webradio on my boxes and it was a success. Now I want to play several channels by using arguments, first with only 2. When I run my script (sh webradio.sh 2) I've got a syntax error: unexpected "elif" (expecting "then").

script:
_Webradio () {
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
echo €€ stop playing sounds... €€
echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
killall mpg123
echo parameter $1

if  [ "$1" = "1" ] then 
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3
  
elif [ "$1" = "2" ]
then
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Topradio... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://jwmp3.topradio.be/topradio.mp3
#else
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  echo €€ launching webradio Hitradio Maroc... €€
  echo €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
  url=http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3
fi

echo url=$url
mpg123 $url

}

Main Program

run the function and pass in all of the arguments

_Webradio "$1"

output:
€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
€€ stop playing sounds... €€
€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€
: no process killed
parameter 2
: not found: line 8:
webradio.sh: line 15: syntax error: unexpected "elif" (expecting "then")
root@Omega-FAF7:~#

Also other very simple script doesn't work with a if then else:
#!/bin/bash

Basic if statement

if [ $1 -gt 100 ] then
echo Hey that's a large number.
pwd
fi
date

output:
testifelse.sh: line 7: syntax error: unexpected end of file (expecting "th
en")

Can someone exlain me what I do wrong? Do I need to install some lib or something? Very simple script do work but a simple if then else does not work.

Thanks in advance.
