Problems upgrading images from 3.0 to 3.1

Question

I'm having trouble updating the images directory as shown:
4.3.2 Updating the Images Directory When Upgrading from Release 3.0
If you are upgrading Oracle Application Express from release 3.0, you must run the apxldimg.sql script to update the images directory.
To run the apxldimg.sql script:
Start SQL*Plus and connect to the database where Oracle Application Express is installed as SYS specifying the SYSDBA role:
On Windows:
SYSTEM_DRIVE:\ sqlplus /nolog
connect sys as sysdba
On UNIX and Linux:
$ sqlplus /nolog
connect sys as sysdba
When prompted, enter the appropriate password.
Run apxldimg.sql passing the file system path to the base directory where the Oracle Application Express software was unzipped as shown in the following example:
On Windows:
@apxldimg.sql SYSTEM_DRIVE:\TEMP
On UNIX and Linux:
@apxldimg.sql /tmp
When I do this, I end up with an error:
==============================
SQL> @apxldimg.sql G:/ITDevSoftware/OracleApplicationExpress31
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
old 1: create directory APEX_IMAGES as '&1/apex/images'
new 1: create directory APEX_IMAGES as 'G:/ITDevSoftware/OracleApplicationExpress31/apex/images'
Directory created.

Directory dropped.
====================
When it says: SYSTEM_DRIVE:\TEMP, does this mean the directory where I unzipped the 3.1 zip file? This directory was G:/ITDevSoftware/OracleApplicationExpress31
Any ideas or assistance appreciated. Everything else went fine.
Thanks,

Exceuse me Mr. Sultan, I mean the script that must be run to update the image directory
If you are upgrading Oracle Application Express from release 3.0, you must run the
apxldimg.sql script to update the images directory.
To run the apxldimg.sql script:
1. Start SQL*Plus and connect to the database where Oracle Application Express is
installed as SYS specifying the SYSDBA role:
■ On Windows:
SYSTEM_DRIVE:\ sqlplus /nolog
connect sys as sysdba
■ On UNIX and Linux:
$ sqlplus /nolog
connect sys as sysdba
When prompted, enter the appropriate password.
2. Run apxldimg.sql passing the file system path to the base directory where the
Oracle Application Express software was unzipped as shown in the following
example:
■ On Windows:
@apxldimg.sql SYSTEM_DRIVE:\TEMP
■ On UNIX and Linux:
@apxldimg.sql /tmp
