RE: Error starting sqlplus

Did you run root.sh after the installation? Can you check if you have 
sticky bit set for the file oracle under $ORACLE_HOME/bin?

John,
 
When you type "env" on the $ prompt, do you see the Oracle environmental's 
defined?
Secondly, try "cd'ing" to the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory and running 
Sqlplus right from there and see what you get.
 
This either an environmental problem, or you do not have permission to 
read the Oracle directories.

Have just installed Oracle 10.2 on AIX 5. When I run sqlplus as oracle it 
runs OK. When I run it as another user I get the message below
I thought the environment variables were not set, but .profiles are 
identical in terms of Oracle values 
Any ideas?
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus
Message file sp1<lang>.msb not found
SP2-0750: You may need to set ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software 
directory
