bash errorif: Expression Syntax

[J. Qiang Li]

hello, all

i have a simple bash script that giving me problem under solaris.

run "source my_script", got error: "if: Expression Syntax" 

then i chmod +x on my_script and invoke it with ./my_script , it worked. why? i am including this
script as postinstall in a solaris package, it failed to get invoked at the postinstall stage. how
do i fix that?

it's a simple script as 

#!/bin/sh
if [ -e 'file' ]; then
  echo "something"
fi

TIA

James.
