export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0/db_1
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
For 10g R2 (10.2.0.1.0) you may want to add the following lines to the ~oracle/.bash_profile
file:
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
After that run the following command to set all environment variables in ~oracle/.bash_profile:
$ . ~oracle/.bash_profile
This command will add the environment variables to the ~oracle/.profile and source in the file
for the current shell by executing ". ~oracle/.bash_profile".
Note
Do not add a trailing "/" on the ORACLE_HOME environment variable. Otherwise you will
get the error "ORACLE not available" when you try to connect to sys, see Chapter 29,
Oracle 10g and Linux Installation Errors and Troubleshooting.
