    IMP Command not found

    Hi all, I am on a Solaris machine on Bash prompt where I am getting an "IMP command not found" error under the Oracle directory. I am not a Unix person - Is this error because of the shell that I am in or is there something missing in Oracle that I need to look into ?

    Thanks.

    You might need to set the $PATH variable.

    best option is to in you .bashrc do:

    export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0 (for example)
    export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    Then to see if you have imp in you path do:

    which imp

    and it should tell you where it is.

    If you can use ksh, best option for Solaris

    Thanks for all your responses. I basically needed to use a different username and now all the paths are getting set automatically.
