Thread: Syntax error near unexpected token 'elif'

hi, friend , working on private server running on 10.04 , when run linux_installer.sh error:

php code:

linux_installer.sh: line 77: syntax error near unexpected token 'elif'
linux_installer.sh: line 77: '  elif [ "${option}" = "b" ]; then' 


here original code file:

php code:

    elif [ "${option}" = "b" ]; then

        echo
        rm -rf "${bkpath}/logon_backup.sql"
        rm -rf "${bkpath}/character_backup.sql"
        echo " [deleting old backups] finished…"

        echo
        mysqldump -h ${server} --user=${user} --port=${port} --password=${pass} ${ldb} > "$bkpath}/logon_backup.sql"
        echo " [backing up logon database] finished…"

        mysqldump -h ${server} --user=${user} --port=${port} --password=${pass} ${cdb} > "${bkpath}/character_backup.sql"
        echo " [backing up char database] finished…"

        echo
        écho " [backing up] finished…" 


i've tried searching answers find when people don't have 'then' included in code after 'elif' command. appreciated.

if "elif" unexpected problem before it, not after.
