awk issue while reading from file in while do

Hi Friends,

I am trying to scan line by line using awk and pull the values and pass it in variables and then will use the variables but doesn't work.

Please see below for details.

Code:

#more dbtest.sh
----------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
. $HOME/.bash_profile

while read line
do

export DBNAME=`cat dblist.txt | awk '{print $1}'`
export USERNAME=`cat dblist.txt | awk '{print $2}'`
export PASSWORD=`cat dblist.txt | awk '{print $3}'`

echo "$DBNAME , $USERNAME , $PASSWORD"

done < dblist.txt

Code:

#more dblist.txt
test system managertest
dev system managerdev

Required output
---------------------

Code:

test , system , managertest
dev , system , managerdev

Current output:

-----------------

Code:

[oracle@test01.com] sh dbtest.sh
test
dev , system
system , managertest
managerdev
test
dev , system
system , managertest
managerdev

Whats the wong in the script , Kindly help.

Regards,
DB
