RE: Can only run sqlplus as oracle userI have applied the patch and run the
changeperm script

The error I get now is

ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available

ORA-27123: unable to attach to shared memory segment

SVR4 Error: 13: Permission denied

I do not get this error when logged into Solaris  as the oracle user, only
when logged is as another user.

Any ideas?

  This may be due to bug 4516865.

  You can try:
  . cd $ORACLE_HOME/install
  . sh changeperm.sh

  This fixed my problem with not being able to run sqlplus from other user
accounts.

    Platform is Solaris 10, Oracle 10

    I can run sqlplus OK when logged on to Solaris as the oracle user, but
if I run sqlplus when logged in as another user I get the error

    ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file

    Oracle environment variables are the same for both users.

    Why should it matter what unix user I am logged on as?
