We ran into this on 11.1.0.7 and it was related to a patch installed for CRS.
The patch instructions specified that the path for Oracle Home be specified and
the example showed a trailing slash for Oracle Home, but in fact this should
not have been put into place. I think we had to manually modify scripts
racgwrap and srvctl. However, I cannot tell if you have RAC on this system,
and my experience may be unrelated. Check your scripts for racgwrap and srvctl
in your CRS home and see if the HOME’s have a trailing slash.

Subject: slightly OT, appears to be Sun OS issue
I am running into something really strange in one of our Solaris zones. I
expect that the problem stems from someone not entering the Oracle home path
correctly on installation, since it appears to have an extra '/' in the Oracle
home name, but I have never seen this elsewhere, and cannot figure out how to
fix it. Its probably easier for you to look at my steps below than try to
explain it further. For some reason, I have to have a '//' in the Oracle home
name to connect to the ASM instance:
