the oracle libs aren't listed there.

that ld line would be really big if they were there. In your makefile, you have:

> $(CC) testQuery.c -L$(LIBHOME) -L$(PRODLIBS) -L$(LDLIBS) -o

but that should be

PROLDLIBS not PRODLIBS

You can see:

for how I do this (but I use the demo makefiles which I don't believe you have -- you might consider getting them -- very useful)
