Looks like you have accidently deleted either a backslash (like a line continuation), quote, double quote or something along those lines prior to line 181. These errors are tuff to find. Try adding -x to the shell interpreter on line one of your script. i.e. #!/bin/bash -x Then run your script again and watch the output or redirect to another file.
