Oracle 7.3.2.3
sqlplus 3.3.2.0.0
AIX 4.2.1
$ORACLE_SID = MYSID I get the following error messages when I run sqlplus with no command line options and then hit return in response to the username prompt:

    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program oracleMYSID because of the following errors:

        0509-023 Symbol pw_post in sqlplus is not defined.
        0509-023 Symbol pw_wait in sqlplus is not defined.
        0509-023 Symbol pw_config in sqlplus is not defined.
        0509-026 System error: Cannot run a file that does not have a
valid format.

    ERROR: ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

Normally, on all my other systems, the same conditions produce an error that looks like this:

    ERROR: ORA-01034: ORACLE not available     ORA-07429: smsgsg: shmget() failed to get segment.     IBM AIX RISC System/6000 Error: 2: No such file or directory

Does this discrepancy indicate some significant difference between the systems? The first error is on a newly cloned system and is not seen on any of my other machines. I'm concerned that the first set of errors is an indication of some discrepancy in the configuration of the new machine and I need to get it to behave more like the second example.

Any ideas?
