  • Error 1 : Syntax error : 'then' unexpected Error 2 : 'Str1' Not found Error 3 : 'Str2' Not found Commented Dec 16, 2015 at 11:45

You are missing whitespaces. 

#!/bin/ksh 

echo ">>Please press y or n :"
read Str

Str1="y"
Str2="n"
if [[ $Str1 == $Str ]]; then
    echo "You pressed Y."
elif [[ $Str2 == $Str ]]; then
    echo "You pressed N."
else
    echo "Error."
fi
