I am developing a batch script to make changes to multiple servers that may or may not contain a particular subfolder under D:\apps\domain. There are multiple combinations of possible domain subfolders. My logic requires: if domain\folder1 exists then do command1 if domain\folder2 exists then do command2 and so on
I am using the following...
for /f "tokens=*" %%Z in ('dir /a:D /b "D:\apps\domain"') do (
if %%Z="PGBWAHD_NA"
command1
but get syntax errors on first IF statement.
Error message ....
=PGBWAHD_NA was unexpected at this time.
D:\apps\hawk_schtasks>if /I %Z=PGBWAHD_NA
The subfolder PGBWAHD_NA does exist, but the script errors and quits.

you rather need:
for /f "tokens=*" %%Z in ('dir /a:D /b "D:\apps\domain"') do (
if "%%~Z" == "PGBWAHD_NA" (
command1
)
)
in batch files valid comparisons are ==
, EQU
, LSS
, LEQ
, GTR
, GEQ
and quotes are also evaluated.
