libclntsh.sl.8.0 error..

[smallpin]

Hi All,
I am running oracle 8.1.5 on HP11 and I am trying to startup some servers upon system bootup for an application, but it is giving me following error:

/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't find path for shared library: libclntsh.sl.8.0
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory

I know it has something to do with the Pro*C shared library, but I do not know quite understand the problem nor how to fix it. Can someone please shed some light on this please...

Thanks,
Dee.

Maybe an environment problem?

If you can start (which you obviously can!) your app while logged on as a certain user, try executing that users' ".profile" file from your script to start the app (at startup).

Hey There,
Now it seems as if the application does not even come up because it can't find the shared library.

usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't find path for shared library: libclntsh.sl.8.0
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory

Should I relink the ORACLE libraries?
How?

Thanks,
Dee

Relink?? Don't think so! (Maybe somebody else can correct me!)

But, please check to make sure that you have the following to env parameters pointing to ORACLE_HOME/lib in addition to others.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH, &
SHLIB_PATH
