Wrong format of connection string under Linux bash

54978Mar 16 2006 — edited Feb 15 2007

Hello to all,

I'm new to the list and did some research at the forum but I found no posting which describes my problem. I have a problem with invoking SQL*Plus from any menu or context menu: when I try then I see a message at the Messages-Log like: Invoking SQL*Plus... /usr/bin/xterm -T "Oracle SQL*Plus" -e /usr/bin/sqlplus <my_user>@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=( ... an so on. Using this command string on BASH under SuSE Linux is wrong because the BASH wants to parse whole string and fails after the occurence of the first bracket. The connection string has to be quoted (including the user) with a single quote to indicate that it is part of the sqlplus command. Is there a chance to use a workaround?

Regards
Alex
