Dennis,

LD_LIBRARY_PATH has to be set. It is from this path, oracle libraries are referred from. Generally, it is set to $ORACLE_HOME/lib

One of the common error while executing oracle utilities, if you don't set this correctly is=20

<something>.msb / .lib not found

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Arul.

Subject: UNIX_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH

The proliferation of Oracle patchsets has me experimenting with multiple Oracle installations on the same Solaris server. I recently went through some weird problems in creating a database under this arrangement. It turns out that the environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH and UNIX_PATH were set but not set correctly. This got me thinking, do I even need to set these variables?
