[: 2016-02-29: integer expression expected
Hi All,

Seeking for your assistance on my error encountered below. I think there's no problem on my script but i'm encountering integer expression expected. i already put double quote on my variable but still the same error i encountered.


Code:
#!/bin/sh

TASKDATE=2016-02-10
VSQL_F="connect"

dProcDate=`${VSQL_F} <<-EOF
SELECT LAST_DAY('$TASKDATE') AS dProcDate FROM DUAL;
EOF`

dCurrent=`${VSQL_F} <<-EOF
SELECT LAST_DAY(SYSDATE) AS dCurrent FROM DUAL;
EOF`

dProcDate2=`${VSQL_F} <<-EOF
SELECT LAST_DAY(ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-1)) AS dProcDate FROM DUAL;
EOF`

if [ "$dProcDate" -lt "$dCurrent" ]; then
$dProcDate
else
$dProcDate2
fi


echo $TASKDATE
echo $dProcDate
echo $dCurrent
echo $dProcDate2

Code:
Error encountered:
jpv2.sh: line 18: [: 2016-02-29: integer expression expected
jpv2.sh: line 21: 2016-04-30: command not found

please advise,

LESSECHO(1)						      General Commands Manual						       LESSECHO(1)

NAME

       lessecho - expand metacharacters

SYNOPSIS

       lessecho [-ox] [-cx] [-pn] [-dn] [-mx] [-nn] [-ex] [-a] file ...

DESCRIPTION

       lessecho  is  a program that simply echos its arguments on standard output.  But any metacharacter in the output is preceded by an "escape"
       character, which by default is a backslash.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -ex    Specifies "x", rather than backslash, to be the escape char for metachars.  If x is "-", no escape char is used and  arguments  con-
	      taining metachars are surrounded by quotes instead.

       -ox    Specifies "x", rather than double-quote, to be the open quote character, which is used if the -e- option is specified.

       -cx    Specifies "x" to be the close quote character.

       -pn    Specifies "n" to be the open quote character, as an integer.

       -dn    Specifies "n" to be the close quote character, as an integer.

       -mx    Specifies "x" to be a metachar.  By default, no characters are considered metachars.

       -nn    Specifies "n" to be a metachar, as an integer.

       -fn    Specifies "n" to be the escape char for metachars, as an integer.

       -a     Specifies that all arguments are to be quoted.  The default is that only arguments containing metacharacters are quoted
