Hi Neeraj This strange error seems to indicate you don't have a bash shell which is odd, or if you do its not being used.
I see the error when I type 'sh startup.sh'. But when I explicitly type 'bash startup.sh' all is fine. Or even just './startup.sh' Can you confirm how you are starting this script? Maybe you have a shortcut which explicitly calls 'sh'. Also I would not suggest that dhis-live is the best option for running on ubuntu server if this is meant to be for production use. It uses a pre-canned set of JAVA_OPTS which you would more likely want to tune to your environment.
