Hey guys,

I was prompted with this error when i am trying to run discourse-setup file:

```
root@forum:/var/discourse# ./discourse-setup
./discourse-setup: line 481: syntax error near unexpected token `else'
./discourse-setup: line 481: ` else'

```

Oddly enough, i did exactly the same guide from [github](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md) a few days ago and it worked perfectly.

My server is a 2GB RAM server on Ubuntu 16.04 from Vultr.

Please note, i have tried this on various servers but it didn’t work :-s Not sure what i did wrong tbh.

Thanks in advance guys.
