[Turtle][While not rs.getInput(rsSide): Need a new pair of eyes! cant find the mistake..!

Hello!

- i know this might be a noobish question.. but i really cant find my mistake here :/ it says that in line 14 there is a mistake:S
the fail is: "bios:338: [string "redstone"] : 14: 'end' expected (too close to 'while' at line 12)"

local rsSide = "left"
function run()
   turtle.suck()
	 for i = 1,16 do
	   turtle.select(i)
	 turtle.dropDown()
  end
sleep(3)
end
	while not rs.getInput(rsSide) do
	   run()
	 else  -- this is line 14 where it says fail is
   sleep(5)
end

Can you help me? :)/>
regard plazter

EDIT: got it working with

local rsSide = "left"
function run()
turtle.suck()
  for i = 1,16 do
  turtle.select(i)
  turtle.dropDown()
end
sleep(3)
end
if not rs.getInput(rsSide) then

  repeat run()

  until os.pullEvent("redstone")
run()
end

Thanks for the help otherwise! :D/>
will return if it shows to fail :)/>

EDIT: Dont use it.. semi works but fails since it just stops the program XD

You're treating your while loop like it's an if statement. If you get rid of lines 14 and 15, it should work.

You can't use an else in a while loop.
Try this:

--your run() function etc. comes here.

while true do
if not rs.getInput("yourSide") then
run()
else
sleep(howManySeconds)
end
end
