Error Can't Delete File using ssh2

hi,

i am getting error while executing the follwoing command.

/usr/local/bin/ssh2 user@hostname find /test/DeleteFile -mtime +10 -exec rm {} \;

error is :
find: 0652-018 An expression term lacks a required parameter.

it is deleting the files from the specified location. it is working properly if i write it in script and execute that script. it is deleting the files.
but not working if i execute the same command directly to shall prompt.

there is no Permission or Access Rights problem on folders and user.

I'm suggesting using the single backtick character before and after the "find" command. The character I suggest using is located in the upper left of the
keyboard ( usually ) located on the same key as the tilde "~" character.

Good Luck!
