Hi Jared, Yes you are right!!..you could have re-directed me to google if you didnt want to give suggestions, Thanks for your valuable reply. But my question in general is why in some case we assume LD_ASSUME_KERNEL. are there any particular reason?. I don't understand this sentence. It seems to imply that you don't think LD_LIBRARY_PATH is necessary with 10g. Yes I thought the same that 10g doesnot require any Kernel assumptions. Correct me if iam wrong. reg, Anand On 5/17/07, Jared Still <jkstill@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On 5/17/07, Anand <shastry17@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello all, > > Why should we assume LD_ASSUME_KERNEL with some value during oracle > > installation.
