sed: Multiple Commands applied to an address
Trying to write a sed command that applies multiple replacements to a specific address. Need a second pair of eyes I guess cause my syntax appears to be correct (obviously not though) I am getting an error. Any Help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

sed -f foo envOracle
sed: Function /system\)/,/\;\;/{ cannot be parsed.

File called foo -
1 /system\)/,/\;\;/{
2 s/ORA_UID=userid/ORA_UID=newuserid/
3 s/ORA_PW=pass/ORA_PW=newpass/
4 }

It works for me if you don't escape the bracket, e.g.

/system)/,/\;\;/{
.
.
.


Cheers

Yes! Thanks for the help. I had a feeling it was something small like that. Thanks again.
