syntax error near unexpected token `else'

825118Dec 19 2010 — edited Dec 19 2010
We are running IBM Websphere portal on our oracle env.

I wrote a script to start portal in all environment.
We have portal 1 & portal2 in different servers.
Its start portal 1 (not a problem)
Only getting following message:

./WebPortaltest.sh: line 56: syntax error near unexpected token `else'
./WebPortaltest.sh: line 56: `else'

There is the else before second logic

{}
#
else
if [ "$host" == "prd6" ] || [ "$host" == "stg6" ] ||
[ "$host" == "wprd6" ] || [ "$host" == "tst6" ]; {}


Here is the whole script:
