Hi Li,
On Metalink Note
How to Relink Oracle Database Software on UNIX
Doc ID: 131321.1
Go to Step 3... it requires you to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
$ORACLE_HOME/lib :)
[Step 3] Verify and/or Configure the UNIX Environment for Proper Relinking:
===============================================================================
For all Oracle Versions and UNIX Platforms:
The Platform specific environment variables LIBPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, &
SHLIB_PATH typically are already set to include system library locations like
'/usr/lib'. In most cases, you need only check what they are set to first,
then add the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directory to them where appropriate.
i.e.: % setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
(see Note 131207.1 How to Set UNIX Environment Variables for help with
setting UNIX environment variables)
... output snipped ...
If on Digital/Tru64, IBM/Sequent PTX, Linux or any other UNIX Platform not
mentioned above with:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oracle 7.3.X, 8.0.X, 8.1.X, 9.X.X, 10.X.X or 11.x.x:
- Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include $ORACLE_HOME/lib
