FRM-10056: Incorrect module type stored in the file

Question

Currently, we have been tasked with moving from windows to a red Hat Linux environment using OFM. We are currentlly using forms 11g. I have been operating totally in a windows environment and I got Linux compile code off the internet. When I try to compile the menu, I get the following:
I got the forms to compile but I cannot get the menu file to compile when I use the following:
for FILE in `ls $FORMS_PATH/*.mmb`; do
OUTPUT=${FILE/mmb/mmx}
echo "$FILE -> $OUTPUT"
frmcmp_batch.sh $FILE userid=userid/password@database Module_Type=MENU batch=yes output_file=$OUTPUT compile_all=special
done
I get the following results:
/public/server/apps2/code/test/forms/testmenu.mmb -> /public/server/apps2/code/test/forms/testmenu.mmx

FRM-10056: Incorrect module type stored in the file
Form not created
I can not seem to find any info on resolving that error. Any suggestions?

Here is the content of our frmcmp.sh script.
#!/bin/sh
# frmcmp.sh - executable Bourne shell script to run the Forms Compiler
#             (Generator) after setting up the required environment
# NOTES
# 1/ The Forms installation process should replace
#    <percent>FORMS_ORACLE_HOME<percent> with the correct ORACLE_HOME
#    setting.  Please make these changes manually if not.
# 2/ Some of the variables below may need to be changed to suite your needs.
#    Please refer to the Forms documentation for details.
# Set ORACLE_HOME if not set in the calling environment:
ORACLE_HOME=/app/oracle/product/Middleware/Oracle_FRHome1
## Change this to match where your FMw product is installed.
export ORACLE_HOME
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH
DISPLAY=<DNS Name or IP address here and the port used.>
## For Example: Your_Domain_name.com:0.0
export DISPLAY
  # Search path for Forms applications (.fmb &.fmx files, PL/SQL libraries)
  # If you need to include more than one directory, they should be colon
  # separated (e.g. /private/dir1:/private/dir2)
  # Note: the current directory is always searched by default
FORMS_PATH=<INCLUDE all directories where Forms objects are found (Lib's, Memu's, etc)>
export FORMS_PATH
  # You may need to set one or more of TNS_ADMIN, TWO_TASK or ORACLE_SID
  # to connect to database
  TNS_ADMIN=<DIRectory where your TNSADMIN.ora files exists>
  export TNS_ADMIN
  ORACLE_SID=<YOUR DB SID>
  export ORACLE_SID
  # System settings
  # You should not normally need to modify these settings.

Here is a very simplified version of our compile.sh...
#!/bin/ksh
## Source the frmcmp.sh
. /<path to file>/frmcmp.sh
frmcmp module=$filename userid=user_id/pw@databasev module_type=form compile_all=yesHope this helps.
