bashrc conf problem

[mr_gnu]

Problem: as you can see from my terminal, when i create new bash. I get this error message.

bash: eval: line 57: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: eval: line 57: `z() {'

But i can't find where is the problem. Any kinds of help will be appreciated. down below is my .bashrc config file.

#!/bin/bash

# shellcheck source=/dev/null

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return

But i can't find where is the problem

Line 57? I copied/pasted that to a file, and only got 55 lines. I'm no expert by any means, but my .bashrc file has this:

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
case $- in
    *i*) ;;
      *) return;;
esac

and yours has

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return

Don't know the difference, like I said I'm no expert, and my .bashrc file is pretty much the default, plus a few tweaks of my own. I'm on Debian, by the way. What distro are you on?

Please put any code in a code block. Makes it easier to consume.

Like @Tolkem , I copied the text and only got 54 lines. Also, I don't see any z(). I'm thinking maybe the error is in one of the other referenced files, such as
/etc/bash.bashrc
$HOME/.bash_aliases
$HOME/.bin/utils
$HOME/.lscolors
$HOME/.LESS_TERMCAP
$HOME/.cargo/env
I may have missed some.

Where is the rest of your bashrc ?
I am on Debian and the default file has 114 lines or so before any of the things I added.

In Ubuntu/Debian, there is a default version of the .bashrc file in the /etc/skel/ directory, so if you have problems with it you can restore it.
To do so follow the next steps:
Backup your current .bashrc file:

cp ~/.bashrc ~/.bashrc.bak

Copy the skeleton .bashrc file over yours:

cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/

Now load the new one:

source ~/.bashrc

reboot

I didn't know this. Thanks for the tip.

yep a "hidden" file

 

[Tolkem]

yep a "hidden" file

I have one question, tho. Don't we need root access to copy that file?

sudo cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/

I think we do.

EDIT: Now I see it

ls /etc/skel/ 
./  ../  .bash_logout  .bashrc  .profile

EDIT2: Ok, I just answered my own question, lol We don't need root access to copy that file. I just tried:

cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/_bashrc.new

And it worked without issues:

 

[craigevil]

Nice. I didn't know about the /etc/skel/bashrc
And no you do not need root/sudo to copy it to Your /home
