check whether 3 files are present

Shell Programming and Scripting

I'm trying to check whether 3 files are existing and send 3 files as attachements.
If only two are there then send those two files as attachments.

if [ -s "ESSKPI" && -s "ESSORG" && -s "ESSROLE"]; then 
elif [ -s "ESSKPI" && -s "ESSORG"]; then

I tired the above given syntax and then it is giving me an error
line 11: [: missing `]'

I tried with -a instead of && and that is also not working.

When i tried

if [ -s "ESSKPI"] && [-s "ESSORG" && -s "ESSROLE"]; then
elif [ -s "ESSKPI"] && [-s "ESSORG"]; then

This one is hanging and not doing anything.

Can somebody please help me with this?

I hope this will help you .....
just check with the square braces i hope this should work in your env
try to use {} in place of [] if it doesnt works

#!/bin/ksh

file1=/home/scott/a.txt
file2=/home/scott/b.txt
file3=/home/scott/c.txt

## -f is used for <file exists >

##verify whether there exist 3 files if it is true then send the files via attachement

IF [ ( -f $file1 ) -a ( -f $file2 ) -a ( -f $file3 ) ]

THEN

(uuencode $file1 $file1 ; uuencode $file2 $file2; uuencode $file3 $file3 ) |mailx -m -s "attachements" a@aol.in

##verify whether there exist 2 files if it is true then send the files via attachement

ELIF [ ( -f $file1 ) -a ( -f $file2 ) ]

(uuencode $file1 $file1 ; uuencode $file2 $file2) |mailx -m -s "attachements" a@aol.in
