Syntax error in dbstart script after upgrade to 11.2.0.4?

edited Jan 24, 2016 10:00AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

We recently upgraded database from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.4. Noted that dbstart script, which automatically starts up a database, has a syntax error. When attempting to start with the command:

$ dbstart $ORACLE_HOME

Processing Database instance "prod": log file /oracle/product/11.2.0.4/dbhome_1/startup.log

/oracle/product/11.2.0.4/dbhome_1/bin/dbstart: syntax error at line 393: `COUNT=$' unexpected

The bug appears to be a trivial one - a variable COUNT is referenced as plain COUNT and not $COUNT at line 393.

The /opt/var/oracle/oratab has proper entry for new ORACLE_HOME for 11.2.0.4.

Has anyone encountered this? Any patch available for this?

Thanks,

Chandu
