From: Sven Hilmer on 31 Jan 2010 09:03 hi all After installing Oracle database 11.2 on Solaris 10 x86 the dbstart script doesn't work because of the interpreter is set to /bin/sh but the script uses syntax of ksh/bash . dbstart: line 1:#!/bin/sh .... line 89:export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER This export statement is illegal for bourne shell so the script exits with an error message and doesn't the database processes How do you solve this problem?

Old bug. My dbora init.d(4) script invokes dbstart like this: su - $ORA_OWNER -c "ksh $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart" You can do something similar in smf(5) machinery. John groenveld(a)acm.org

I'd just change the script to either use bash or change that > export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER to ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER> export ORACLE_HOME Tim -- tcross (at) rapttech dot com dot au

We use the korn shell for our Oracle setting and starting scripts. HTH -- Mark D Powell -- |
