awk error awk: line 2: missing } near end of file
 

Hi, please can anyone give me some help here
I am trying to do a if stament using awk but I keep having this error awk: line 2: missing } near end of file

and this is the part of the code

echo "$scanning_card_signal_quality $ROAMING_THRESHOLD_WLAN0 $connected_card_signal_quality" | awk '{if (($1 > $2) && ($3 < $2)) {'
echo "Starting handover from $connected_card to $scanning_card"
start_handover=$(date +%s.%N)
sudo iwconfig $scanning_card essid 'HTC network'
end_handover=$(date +%s.%N)
time_delay=$(echo "$end_handover - $start_handover" | bc)
echo "Handover time delay is $time_delay nanoseconds"
# sudo dhclient $WLAN0
sudo dhclient $connected_card
# sudo ip addr add 192.168.1.136/24 dev $scanning_card
sudo ping -c4 google.com #ping command to check the connection
echo "line 64"
#sudo ip link set down $connected_card
sudo dhclient -r $connected_card
sudo ip link set up $connected_card
temp=$connected_card
connected_card=$scanning_card
scanning_card=$temp'}'


AND THIS IN THE ENTIRE CODE

why have you posted all of that crap when it's clearly an error in the awk command?

that is an *entire* awk script, and clearly an illegal one, as the is indeed no matching } at the end. It looks like you expect the one about 10 lines later to magically work, but it won't, as it's 10 entire bash commands away.

If sounds like you're trying to use awk to make an "if then else" statement outside of it's own scope or something... very odd. Remove the awk and do it with proper bash instead.

Nobody wants to take the time to read through a mess of text to locate your errors for you, so take some time to cut it down to the section or commands that relate directly to the problem at hand. Who knows, you might discover where you went wrong in the process on your own while you're at it.
