I get this error with the mv command....

./createdb.sh[139]: /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/: cannot create
mv: cannot rename /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/ to /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/init.ora.162006131752: Invalid argument

Post all the relevant commands from your script that threw up the error result.

Code:
for i `ls -1 $ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/`
do
  echo src=${src}
  echo dest=${dest}
  echo "replacing ${src} to ${dest} for $i"
  echo "s#${src}#${dest}#g"
  sed -e "s#${src}#${dest}#g" "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i" >> "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup"
  mv "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup" "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i"
  done

See if the file exists or not.

Code:
for i `ls -1 $ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/`
do
  echo src=${src}
  echo dest=${dest}
  echo "replacing ${src} to ${dest} for $i"
  echo "s#${src}#${dest}#g"
  sed -e "s#${src}#${dest}#g" "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i" >> "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup"
  echo "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup $ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i"
#  mv "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup" "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i"
  done

./createdb.sh[139]: /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/: cannot create
./createdb.sh[140]: /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/: cannot execute
/u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/ /u01/app/oracle/admin/db2/pfile/init.ora.162006131752

What are you trying to do ? Migration ?

See if you have write permissions on the destination directory.

sed -e "s#${src}#${dest}#g" "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i" >> "$ORACLE_BASE/admin/${dest}/pfile/$i_backup" will fail if you have no write permissions and hence no $i_backup will be present. So mv statement will fail.
