Unable to find library libclntsh.so.10.1

HP-UX 11.23
Oracel 10.2.0.2

After the dev/root filesystem was full, the administrator relocated a few trace file. This seemingly has resulted in causing the database startup failure. The command ld -s dboraslib.so returns:

The directory /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient is a symbolic link pointing to /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient_10201 and the relevant libraries are in the actual directory. So I am stumped why these can't be located by dboraslib.so. Any hints???

Hi,

Could you post your LD_LIBRARY_PATH env setting?

# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Shalom,

SHLIB_PATH should be checked.

Also, if /usr is not a separate filesytstem, root getting filled up could have actually damaged the contents of the filesystem.

Thanks for the response. SHLIB_PATH points to:

/usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run:/oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient

As I mentioned, all the libraries are available in /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient_10201 which has a link to /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient. But when I issue file or find command on the symbolic link directory, I get nothing back.

file /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient/libclntsh.so.10.1 returns

/oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient/libclntsh.so.10.1: cannot open

But when I go inside file /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient, I can see all the files.

I have tried the file command by switching to root user and it shows the attributes. Seems there is a problem with user erpadm's authorization. Currently, when I issues ls -l for the directory instantclient, I get:

lrwxr-x--- 1 root sapinst 41 May 15 11:57 instantclient -> /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient_10201

While the actual physical directory instantclient_10201 has the following attributes:

drwxrwxr-x 1 erpadm sapsys 1024 Mar 27 2006 instantclient_10201

Any ideas what the authorizations should be for linked directory so that I can access it using user erpadm?

rwxr-x--- 1 root sapinst 41 May 15 11:57 instantclient -> /oracle/client/10x_64/instantclient_10201

add sapsys to the group sapinst or change the permissions to 755.

Thanks. There was an authorization problem which I have addressed. All replies are highly appreciated.

Since instantclient is a symlink, that may not be what's there. If you want to see the permissions of what the link points to, you can use:
ll -L instantclient

Thanks. I know where the link points to. The problem was due to permissions of a top level directory (/oracle/client). This has been fixed now.
