MGR-04545: too many parameters

When trying to shutdown or startup my database using scripts, I receive the above message after server mgr has been opened. My startup and shutdown scripts are as follows:


connect internal
startup
exit



connect internal
shutdown immediate
exit


Any ideas what this message could mean and/or how to resolve?

Thanks alot!

Is it connecting internal,

Is it Shell Script

If so, make it Startup Normal;

and Shutdown Immediate;

It is connecting internal..

It is a .sql scipt that is executed by a .bat file under Windows NT....

In my shutdown script, I do have shutdown immediate and it still has a problem...


Any other thoughts?

Please post the whole script.

The entire shutdown.sql and startdown.sql script is contained in my original message. All the bat file does is set the SID, startup server mgr and call each script as follows:

SET ORACLE_SID=TSTLIMS
d:\Oracle\Ora81\BIN\Svrmgrl @d:\Oracle Backups\shutdown.sql


SET ORACLE_SID=TSTLIMS
d:\Oracle\Ora81\BIN\Svrmgrl @d:\Oracle Backups\Oracle Scripts\startup.sql

Try

shutdown.sql:
svrmgrl< connect internal
shutdown immediate
quit
EOF


SET ORACLE_SID=TSTLIMS
d:\Oracle Backups\shutdown.sql

Problem turned out to be that in my directory names there was a space. Ex: d:\Oracle Backups\Backup Scripts\shutdown.bat. When changed the directory names and made it all one word, the problem was resolved.

Thanks to all that offered assistance!
