Hi all -
I am trying to install ROracle for linux machines ... I have read the INSTALL documentation and followed the directions for setting the paths as follows: export PATH=/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin:$PATH [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/lib64:/lib:/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1 /lib32:/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/lib:/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db _1/lib64 As directed by the INSTALL document. Executing the install by running sudo R CMD INSTALL ROracle_0.5-8.tar.gz gives me the following: * Installing *source* package 'ROracle' ... checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating src/Makevars config.status: creating src/Makefile ** libs ** arch - R CMD COMPILE RS-DBI.c make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/R.INSTALL.e14574/ROracle/src' gcc -I/usr/lib64/R/include -I/usr/lib64/R/include -DRS_ORA_SQLGLS_WORKAROUND -I/usr/local/include -fpic -O2 -g -std=gnu99 -c RS-DBI.c -o RS-DBI.o make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/R.INSTALL.e14574/ROracle/src' proc CODE=ANSI_C MODE=ORACLE INCLUDE=/usr/lib64/R/include \ PARSE=NONE LINES=false PREFETCH=1 RS-Oracle.pc proc: error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.10.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory make: *** [RS-Oracle.c] Error 127 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'ROracle' ** Removing '/usr/lib64/R/library/ROracle' Now, to check for the libclntsh.so.10.1 file, did the following: CD $ORACLE_HOME/lib Ls In which the file libclntsh.so.10.1 actually does exist, even though the error message seems to imply it doesn't. I have searched the archives but found no record of a solution to this problem, and the documentation provided with the package does not address this issue as far as I can tell. Can someone please explain/point me in the right direction?
