hi andy, make sure that after installing oracle you either put your oracle library directory into your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable or add it to your /etc/ld.so.conf - file and run "ldconfig" as root afterwards. jens ---- Jens Vagelpohl jens@digicool.com Software Engineer www.digicool.com Digital Creations (888) 344-4332 Got Zope? ---- -----Original Message----- From: zope-admin@zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of Andy Pahne Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2000 07:46 To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] problems with DCOracle Hi there, I have problems with the DCOracle Product. Here is the traceback: DCOracle Import Traceback Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.6-src/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/www/zope/lib/python/Products/DCOracle/__init__.py", line 66, in ? from ocidb import Connect, error File "/www/zope/lib/python/Products/DCOracle/ocidb.py", line 50, in ? import oci_, ociCurs, ociProc ImportError: libnjni8.so: cannot open shared object file: file or directory not found libnjni8.so is there, in ORACLE_HOME/lib but how the hell do I make my Zope find this library? I tried to link it into my python-path, into the DCOracle-directory, I tried to run zope as the Oracle-system-user... but without success... By the way one question: What did you do with the DCOracle-directory after compiling DCOracle? I did not found anything about this point in the README.txt or on the Zope site. And because I'm not that familiar with Python or system-administration I'm not really sure what to do with it. I copied it into .../zope/lib/python/Products Andy Pahne, ap@net22.net
