Fix I used there was to take the environment variable line: ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD=`grep -i password /etc/listener.ora | awk -F= '{print $2}' -` to be before the su. I've updated the original post to have that fix in. Not sure why that happens, but I just replicated it on a solaris test machine. Fix I used there was to take the environment variable line:

This is happening both on my RHES Linux 4.0 and hpux 11.11 servers. If I put all the oracle commands in a separate script, then everything is fine, but I'm wondering if anyone knows why the example above wouldn't work for me? cheers, Kevin I’m following these steps exactly, but seeing that my script is not able to set variables within the “su – ” routine.

Had I known password wasn't needed for startup, I might have been tempted to be lazy and skip the listener shutdown step, since I'm a lot less bothered about a listener not being cleanly shutdown than a database.
