Hi Friends,

Am facing issues executing the following script

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/oracle
. orcl.env
sqlplus / as sysdba <<EOF
spool /u01/app/oracle/trial.txt
select * from v$flash_recovery_area_usage;
spool off
exit;
EOF

The o/p for the following is

1 SQL> select * from v;
2 select * from v
3 *
4 ERROR at line 1:
5 ORA-04044: procedure, function, package, or type is not allowed here
6
7
8 SQL> spool off
.

The expected o/p is the output of the select query, but its not working so.
I suppose it is not taking characters from the '$' symbol.

Would be greatful if anybody could help me with this .

Thanks & Advance.

It is almost that; you have to escape the $ with \: \$
I don't see the relation with your title.
