ORA-00936: Missing Expression Error

[Quoted] I am trying to create a view with outer join condition using the following code

CREATE VIEW "VW_EQUIP_SEARCH1" AS select EQUIPITEM.ITEMID, EQUIPITEM.RETURNDT, EQUIPITEM.STATUS, EQUIPMENT.CATEGORY, FEATURE.DESCRIPTION
from EQUIPITEM, EQUIPMENT, FEATURE where EquipItem.EquipID = Equipment.EquipID and EquipItem.ItemID =* Feature.ItemID;

The last condition which specifies outer join is EquipItem.ItemID =* Feature.ItemID

But when i use this statement it gives me an error ERROR at line 5:
ORA-00936: missing expression

Suggests are appreciated
