The libvppdc.so is the shared library for the data gatherer, who is now an integral part of the agent. Is $ORACLE_HOME/lib/ in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH ?

If not, add it, so the apps know where to find their libraries. Also, check that ORACLE_HOME is set correctly in the session you use to start the agent. Not all shells inherit variables gracefully. (My guess is you checked both these already.)

If so, maybe it lacks some symbols the agents need. In that case I'd go with Andi's suggestion and relink the agent and it's component.

Sincerely,
