Wouldn’t it be super nice if Oracle puked out some information about where it
looked on the way to not finding it (and why it looked where it looked)?
Those features in a linker were required for undergraduates circa 1977. Over
four decades later you still have to be a sleuth to figure out what you did
wrong. Sigh. That’s what we get for using a lab OS as if it were commercial.
I miss DTSS. (But I don’t miss DaTaSyS, it was the first commercially available
relational database, but it ran at the speed of a research project…)

I believe I figured it out. I thought I had copied the
$ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin/extproc.ora from the other server, but apparently I
hadn’t. That file needed to have SET EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY added to it.

Hi Scott,
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/oracle/data/scripts/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Have you checked $LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your listener env variables?
and you haven't shown ls -l /oracle/data/scripts/lib
has oracle permissions to it?

I have a c program that sends audit data to the OS syslog. I just moved the

The listener.ora contains:
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/product/19.0.0.0)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
# (ENVS = "EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY:/oracle/data/scripts/lib/syslog.so")
(ENVS =
"EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY,LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/oracle/data/scripts/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH")

The library is here:
