Using gedit, syntax errror

[doggypoop78]

when i start up my computer, it gives me a message saying; "syntax error, cannot read line 27", I tried to install java, and here is the file:

Code: Select all

# /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for the Bourne shell (sh(1)) 
# and Bourne compatible shells (bash(1), ksh(1), ash(1), ...).

if [ "$PS1" ]; then
  if [ "$BASH" ] && [ "$BASH" != "/bin/sh" ]; then
    # The file bash.bashrc already sets the default PS1.
    # PS1='\h:\w\$ '
    if [ -f /etc/bash.bashrc ]; then
      . /etc/bash.bashrc
    fi
  else
    if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ]; then
      PS1='# '
    else
      PS1='$ '
    fi
  fi
fi

if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then
  for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
    if [ -r $i ]; then
      . $i
    fi
AVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jre1.8.0_73
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin

It appears when you added the last two lines, you chopped off three lines from the original. Here's the last if block from mine:

Code: Select all

if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then
  for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
    if [ -r $i ]; then
      . $i
    fi
  done
  unset i
fi

While I'm not sure about the last 2 lines you added, I'm suspecting the first is missing a "J" at the beginning.

Hope that helps. And welcome to the forum.
