orapwd gives me an error

Oracle database enterprise edition 19.21 running on RedHat 7 enterprise edition

orapwd filename=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwpatchtst password=xxxx force=y ignorecase=n
Usage 1: orapwd file=<fname> force={y|n} asm={y|n}
          dbuniquename=<dbname> format={12|12.2}
          delete={y|n} input_file=<input-fname>
......
Usage 2: orapwd describe file=<fname>

  where
    file   - name of password file (required),
    password
           - password for SYS will be prompted
....

There must be no spaces around the equal-to (=) character.

is not working for me.

[oracle@patch dbs]$ orapwd describe file=orapwpatchtst
Password file Description : format=12.2 

Any suggestions?

Howdy, Stranger!
