Well, my first question is did you apply the linux patch 8.1.5.2? You need to
do this or you will not be able to use this release. As far as environment
variables, here is a quick dump of my .profile script for you:
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_ADMIN=$ORACLE_BASE/admin; export ORACLE_ADMIN
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/8.1.5; export ORACLE_HOME
TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin; export TNS_ADMIN
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1; export NLS_LANG
NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD-MON-YYYY; export NLS_DATE_FORMAT
ORACLE_SID=PROD; export ORACLE_SID
ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/admin/data; export ORA_NLS33
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
You could however, ditch the 8.1.5 version of Oracle on Linux and go with the
8.1.6 release, alot of head aches will go away once you do this.
