Perhaps you're using a non-bourne-compatible shell for the postgres
user account?  If so, you'd likely need to adapt the syntax for the
passed-down command.

                        regards, tom lane

Yes postgres user account's shell is /bin/csh
after changing shell to /bin/sh, script works as expected

postgres% chsh -s /bin/sh

Thank you very much.
