LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] -bash: oradb.oraia: command not found

hi!
I am having oracle enterprise 5 64bit linux machine running on my windwos x in vmware workstation. Today i was installing oracle software in OEL 5 after editing the bash profile for the oracle user i got the following messages

Code:

[root@oradb ~]# su - root

-bash: oradb.oraia: command not found

-bash: oradb.oraia: command not found

[root@oradb ~]#

BUT

Code:

[root@oradb oracle]# su oracle

[oracle@oradb ~]$

here oradb=localhost, oraia=localdomain
------------------------------------------------------
further I have made the following changes in oracle user .bash_profile and the very same in root /etc/profile

Code:

# System wide environment and startup programs, for login setup

# Functions and aliases go in /etc/bashrc



pathmunge () {

        if ! echo $PATH | /bin/egrep -q "(^|:)$1($|:)" ; then

          if [ "$2" = "after" ] ; then

              PATH=$PATH:$1

          else

              PATH=$1:$PATH

          fi

        fi

}



# ksh workaround

if [ -z "$EUID" -a -x /usr/bin/id ]; then 

        EUID=`id -u`

        UID=`id -ru`

fi



# Path manipulation

if [ "$EUID" = "0" ]; then

        pathmunge /sbin

        pathmunge /usr/sbin

        pathmunge /usr/local/sbin

fi



# No core files by default

ulimit -S -c 0 > /dev/null 2>&1



if [ -x /usr/bin/id ]; then

        USER="`id -un`"

        LOGNAME=$USER

        MAIL="/var/spool/mail/$USER"

fi



HOSTNAME=`/bin/hostname`

HISTSIZE=1000



if [ -z "$INPUTRC" -a ! -f "$HOME/.inputrc" ]; then

    INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc

fi



export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC



for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do

    if [ -r "$i" ]; then

        if [ "$PS1" ]; then

            . $i

        else

            . $i >/dev/null 2>&1

        fi

    fi

done



unset i

unset pathmunge

TMP=/tmp; export TMP

TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR

ORACLE_HOSTNAME= oradb.oraia; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME

export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle

export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db_1

export ORACLE_SID=ORCL

export ORACLE_TERM=xterm

export PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH

export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib

export CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib

and my echo path is

Code:

echo $PATH

/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/bin:/usr/sbin:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin

The problem is that though by using the above very first command for switching to other user i do switch into the other user ie oracle/root . But this seems not normal since the " -bash:oradb.oraia: command not found " .......
It would be great full if any expert guide me in this regard
THANKS IN ADVANCE !!!!!!
