Hi Guys
I want to know after I installed 12c on linux 6.5 I tried connecting to sqlplus on the CLI but I couldn't
After reading around i followed these steps below.
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ ps -ef | grep -i pmon
oracle 19824 1 0 10:33 ? 00:00:00 ora_pmon_orcl
oracle 20791 20627 0 11:19 pts/5 00:00:00 grep -i pmon
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ pwdx 19824
19824: /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/dbs
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=orcl
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/dbs
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
-bash: sqlplus: command not found
Then i tried to run it again as show below only this time i added "/opt" in-front of the paths
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=orcl
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/dbs/bin
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/dbs
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
[oracle@obi1 ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
-bash: sqlplus: command not found
But now when I try to run any command even "ls" or "whoami" I get the -bash command not found. I think I messed up the bash profile
Any ideas on how I could fix this so that i could sqlplus into the database on linux
Thank you kindly.
