RE: LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Mormally one used $ORACLE_HOME/lib. However, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is really meant to be used when invoking a separate shell. Using it on a client may interfere with other programs.

How are people getting around this?

I have installed oracle 8i client on a Sun Sparc solaris box (Sun 0S 5.7) and I have the following problem when I ran sqlldr or sqlplus :

libucb.so.1 not found.

I included /usr/ucblib in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it worked ok thereafter,

My question is, is this standard to add this library to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH manually or is there something wrong on the OS setup side

Thanks
Umesh
