I’ve installed Oracle XE 11.2 on Fedora 18 but have trouble starting SQLPlus. It quits with the following error:
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus
SP2-0667: Message file sp1<lang>.msb not found
SP2-0750: You may need to set ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software directory
All of the environment variables are properly set (copied from installation guide)
# ~/.zshrc
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe # It is in fact installed there
ORACLE_SID=XE
NLS_LANG=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/nls_lang.sh`
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
NLS_LANG is AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8. As far as I understand Oracle ignores system language related variables but here they are anyway:
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Any suggestions?
