Ambiguos Redirect Error

I have the below lines of code.
Code:
ls found*.tmp | while IFS= read -r entry; do
APP_NAME=$(sed -n -e 's/^.*<name>//' -e 's|</name>.*$||'p $entry | sed 's/\(<name>\|<\/name>\)//g')
echo "APP_NAME="$APP_NAME>$APP_NAME"_Deploy.cfg"
done

I m getting the below error while running the above script.
Code:
bash-3.2$ ./test.sh
./test.sh: line 7: $APP_NAME"_Deploy.cfg": ambiguous redirect
./test.sh: line 7: $APP_NAME"_Deploy.cfg": ambiguous redirect
./test: line 7: $APP_NAME"_Deploy.cfg": ambiguous redirect
./test: line 7: $APP_NAME"_Deploy.cfg": ambiguous redirect

I tried this echo "APP_NAME="$APP_NAME>"{$APP_NAME}"_Deploy.cfg

This time i did not get the error but the .cfg files were not generated when they should.

Code:
uname -a SunOS mymac 5.10 Generic_150400-23 sun4v sparc sun4v

Can you please help fix this.

HOBBIT-NKVIEW.CFG(5)						File Formats Manual					      HOBBIT-NKVIEW.CFG(5)

NAME
hobbit-nkview.cfg - Configuration of the hobbitgraph CGI SYNOPSIS
$BBHOME/etc/hobbit-nkview.cfg DESCRIPTION
hobbit-nkview.cgi(1) uses the configuration file $BBHOME/etc/hobbit-nkview.cfg to determine which of the statuses currently in a red or yellow state should appear on the Critical Systems view. This file should not be edited manually. It is maintained by the hobbit-nkeedit.cgi(1) utility via a web-based frontend. FILE PERMISSIONS
Since the file is maintained by a web front-end tool, the userid running Web CGI scripts must have write-permission to the file. Typi- cally, this means it must have a group-ownership matching your webserver userid, and group-write permissions (mode 664). When editing the file with the web front-end, a backup file is created. Therefore the hobbit-nkview.cfg.bak file should have identical permissions. SEE ALSO
