If I untertake these steps, neither apache nor lsnrctl works. The interesting thing is:
Even if I *only* copy libociei.so to the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directory, lsnrctl can't start. Initially there was no libociei.so in the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directory. So I didn't even overwrite anything. I just copied one file, and lsnrctl stopped to work.
If I copy all of the 3 files, it still doesn't work. (2 files have been overwritten during this process).

I just restored the 2 files from a backup, and deleted libociei.so from $ORACLE_HOME/lib - now lsnrctl is able to start again. (But apache still isn't *gg* because of ld.so.conf)

Yeah, I read that too...and I believe it's true. But the problem is how to tell apache where to find those files. ;)
