this statement is part of a shellscript.
when i try to run the script in a console it execute statement 1
while if i call the script using 'host' in forms it execute statement 2.
I run it using same working directory.
------- script ------------

cd /home/test
if [ -d ${archive_dir} ]
then
statement 1
else
statement 2
fi

----------------------------
why it has a two different output?

thanks,

You say:

but how are you running it as - yourself or Oracle?

As I said in http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/208995/67467/#msg_208995 - does this work immediately after signon or do you have to run another script first? IMO 'archive_dir' is not defined when you run the 'host' command.
