I am not seeing where there would be any syntax problems at line 37. The other odd thing is that this profile is the same as my ROOT and <SID>ADM user, so I do not understand why I am getting this error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I would say that one of the sourced profile contains the error, not .profile itself.

FIXED! Thank you Markus!

Turned out there was a syntax error in the .j2eeenv_SID.sh profile which was being pointed to, not the physical Line 37 itself.
