Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Re: error while loading shared libraries
Slight correction:
it should be set to
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/lib
otherwise you'll lose everything that was on libpath before. Best way to do it is in .profile, so you'll get this env var set each time you logon.
