Oracle user not picking up environment (variables &c.)

PaulieAug 4 2011 — edited Aug 4 2011
Hi all,

Installed 10 XE on my machine which created an oracle user and a dba
group as expected.

When I do

su - oracle

I find myself in the oracle user's home directory

/usr/lib/oracle/xe

with a bash shell. So, I create .bashrc where I put in the ORACLE_HOME, JAVA_HOME &c.

However, my user is still not picking up his (her?) variables.

Can anyone explain to me how to get the oracle user to have a proper default
environment - TIA.
