Did you have ORACLE_HOME set before you tried the compile?

Enter the following from the command line:

echo $ORACLE_HOME

if it comes back with a directory, is this the same directory that is specified in
/var/opt/oracle/oratab? If not, do the following:

. oraenv

and when prompted, enter the name of your Oracle sid.

You can also do the work of oraenv by simply assigning the path of your Oracle home directory to ORACLE_HOME.

That should fix things for you. Received on Mon Jan 03 2000 - 09:30:15 CST
