i am installing oracle 8.1.6 on linux 6.2
after installing oracle i am able to connect with svrmgrl
but
when connecting as sytem i get an error saying slsid and oracle_sid not defined when it is already defined
i double checked with echo $ORACLE_SID
what could be the reason.
could you show us the output of the folowing command
$ su - oracle
$ env | grep ORACLE
if you are settings are right then system should promptu withORACLE_SID=ora8
ORACLE_BASE=/ora8/m01/app/oracle
ORACLE_TERM=vt100
ORACLE_HOME=/ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6
Make sure that /bin, /usr/bin, and /usr/local/bin are in your path by typing:
$ echo $PATH
/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin:/ora8/m01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin
If they are not, then add them to the .bash_profile by changing the PATH statement above to PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin).
