There are too many '{'

Let's say

Code:

X="MyJVM"

Here's the command I'm trying to run -

Code:

sed -n "/serverName=\"${X}\"/,/<\/serverEntries>/{/BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS/{n;s/.*port=\"\([^\"]*\)\".*/\1/;p;};}" serverindex.xml

It fails saying -

Code:

sed: 0602-413 There are too many '{'.

Whereas this works -

Code:

sed -n "/serverName=\"${X}\"/,/<\/serverEntries>/{
    /BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS/{n;s/.*port=\"\([^\"]*\)\".*/\1/;p;}
}" serverindex.xml

Any way to fix the first command?

They are not the same.

Code:

sed -n "/serverName=\"${X}\"/,/<\/serverEntries>/{/BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS/{n;s/.*port=\"\([^\"]*\)\".*/\1/;p;};}" serverindex.xml

sed -n "/serverName=\"${X}\"/,/<\/serverEntries>/{
    /BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS/{n;s/.*port=\"\([^\"]*\)\".*/\1/;p;}
}" serverindex.xml
