As it says, bash can not handle the line 214 in which the USER variable is set to
I don't know what you want to fill in there but the signs '<' and '>' are used in bash for redirecting output therefore the variable cannot be set.
Example:
bash-4.4$ USER=<USER_ID>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
bash-4.4$ USER=test<
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
bash-4.4$ USER=test
bash-4.4$ echo $USER
test
If you want to get your actual username or id either use the command id or look with export for Environment Variables which already exists.
For more information about I/O redirection have a look at the docs: https://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html
