Error 57 initializing SQLPlus

Hi
I have the following installed on a web server (windows 2003 x64):
Oracle 10g XE
Oracle 11g ODAC (11.1.0.6.21)
I'm running an ASP.Net 3.5 website that connects to Oracle XE via Oracle.DataAccess. This all works fine on my XP development machine, but I have installed the above on our web server and am getting the following when trying to test with SQLPlus:
Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus
Error loading message shared library
It was initially working and I could connect with SQLPlus ok. I've since tried to test my ASP.Net app which failed to connect and now I get the above. Stopping/starting XE and listener doesn't get rid of it either. Strangly I can connect using XE's web interface and a reboot of the server temporarily fixes the problem until my asp.net app connects again.
This is really starting to annoy me because it works fine on my xp machine. Have searched the forums, but there's nothing that seems to match my problem, so I'd be grateful if anyone knows what might be going on.
Regards
John

Still struggling with this.
ORACLE_HOME is set to: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server
PATH includes: C:\app\John\product\11.1.0\client_1;C:\app\John\product\11.1.0\client_1\bin;C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\bin;
I have created a stand-alone test windows forms app that connects ok using ODP. Then when I try to connect through my ASP.Net app (which is using the same ODP version) it fails to connect and I don't get any error message. After that I can't connect with my windows forms app or sqlplus. It's almost as if the ASP.Net app is causing the oracle client to crash and after that nothing works until I reboot.
Oracle XE doesn't have a 64-bit version so installs as a 32-bit app. According to all the documentation I've read, ODAC is ok on 32 or 64 bit and I have set the "platform" of the dll I use to connect to be "x86".
This is really beginning to frustrate me. I'm thinking I should've used SQL Server instead. It shouldn't be this difficult to deploy an app that uses ODP.
If anyone has any other thoughts I'd be happy to hear them. My client is waiting to see their website and I'm nowhere near fixing this issue.

[Emergency] sqlplus gets "Error 5 initializing SQL*Plus NLS initialization"

What could be the reasons for the following error?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply.
I solved this problem by adding "esumedi" user to dba group.
[esumedi(ngwapt1):/GXS/esumedi] cat /etc/group
adm::4:root,adm
dba::107:anylink,almnp,albat,alon,almnp180,alon180,albat180

-rwxr-x--x 1 oracle dba 72048 May 6 2008 sqlplusO*
ngwapt1:/ora_client/OraHome_1/bin>
My guess is that a oracle client user needs "read" and "excute" privilege.
Before I add "esumedi" to dba group, the user of esumedi could not read some file in the $ORACLE_HOME.
After I added "esumedi" to dba group, the user of esumedi was able to read some file in the $ORACLE_HOME.
This is my guess.
Is my guess right?
If I change "file access mode" under $ORACLE_HOME directory, it could be the another solution??
Thanks.
Best Regards.

Error 45 initializing SQL*Plus

Hi All,
When I try to execute a create view script, I encounter a "Error 45 initializing SQL*Plus Internal Error".
When googled for it. The BUG 3039738 is associated with this error message.
My question is, When the Metalink has explained the scenario in BUG description that. This error is encountered when a shell script is trying to invoke the sqlplus.
I donno why I am getting it when I try to run a SQL create view script.
Details:
OS:Red Hat Linux 5.2
DB:Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4)

Hi Robert,
We use eChangeMan for scripts transfer.
The scripts are uploaded into eChangeMan and then sent for approval. Once Approved. The eChangeMan automatically transfers the scripts to specific location on server, from where we execute them.
In one link I found this
Cause: The issue is identified as Bug:3039738. This typically reproduces when SQL script file is on a OCFS filesystem created on shared device (for example, SAN storage).
Fix: The only workaround, until bug is fixed, is to copy the SQL script file to a local disk (in case of Linux, a ext3 filesystem).
But this is the first time I have encountered this error. When i did a vi on script, It looks fine, without any spl characters.

Hi,
1. Check if $ORACLE_HOME of both users is exactly the same
2. Check if sqlplus that you are executing is the same too (which sqlplus)
3. If that doesn't work, try executing directly ORACLE_HOME=/u01/oracle/.... sqlplus "/as sysdba"

Please give me any solution regarding this.
Thanks in advance.
Would appriciate your prompt response.

ty this

export Oracle_SID=orclIf you actually did this, then you will fail. The variable is ORACLE_SID and the variable name is case sensitive.
If the database was already created with the SID orcl, check whether the SID exists in oratab (command -> tail /etc/oratab) and then you can source the oraenv file as follows
. oraenv
orcl
Note that sourcing is using the dot (period) and space before command. If you do not know what "source a file" means in bash, I strongly encourage you to spend some time with the bash tutorial on the net.

Here I am wondering that I have installed and configure successfully in dev environment with the same DB privileges and folder permissions,as well same character set details and the same install files every thing is same as dev environment, but the same approach is failing in prod environment.
I am unable to figure out what exactly issue is,
Can any one please help me out in this regard.

Hi John,
We are using the different schemas(ESHSRVC for dev and ESHSRVC4 for prod)and different user ids as well in the db server( devdwdb.newcorp.com:1531:DEVDW)
where the DEVDW is the sid for both schemas.
Here the HSS tables created in ESHSRVC and working fine for dev.
but in the new installation and config with the ESHSRVC4 schema the config is failing and throwing the error msg..
I am sure the new installation is not pointing to the old HSS populated schema(ESHSRVC) and I have given the connection details of ESHSRVC4(new schema) while config the shared services for new one.
I cross checked the both schema's have the same privileges and character sets.
but in the new config with new schema is unable to create the registry and throwing error.
I have uninstalled and deleted the entire folder and created new schema's and started the new install and config still getting same error.
.

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.

Hi,
Title: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.
Very strange. We have windows host, 32 bit oracle software 10g, 64 bit sap kernel X64.
We have done Kernel patch yesterday and it was successful, system up and running.
Only problem with sqlplus. I have logged in as SIDADM user and when i open command box, the default path is C:\Documents and Settings\SIDADM. when i run sqlplus sys as sysdba, iam able to connnect without any problem but when iam in this path - /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run and run sqlplus sys as sysdba, it returns ORA-12560 error. Thats why, the BRTOOLS are also not working, giving same error.
Is there a problem in the kernel? Where could be the problem?
The environment variables ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME are set properly.
Many thanks,
Mohan.

Hi,
Please look into below SAP recommendation from SAP note 192822:
3. Can I run 32-bit applications on my 64-bit platform?
This depends on the platform you are running on. For all unix- platforms, this can be done without any problem. Even if the OS is started in 64-bit mode, it is possible to run 32-bit applications (R/3, oracle) on it. there is no need to either upgrade oracle or R/3 toa 64-bit version.
This, however is NOT the case for windows & Linux. If you have IA64 hardware in place, you do need to run an 64-bit OS as well as all application in 64-bit mode.
Could you please now share with me your OS (version and whether it is 32 bit or 64 bit as well), database (32 bit or 64 bit), SAP system (32 bit or 64 bit and System release) ?
Thanks
Sunny

Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus

i am not able to start sql plus. It gives me the below mentioned error message. I did not have any problem when i worked a month back but now when i am going to start again, it gives me this error. In between, the only change i brought into my PC is the installation of Kaspersky Antivirus and doing the full scan?

Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus
Error loading message shared library
thanksThis error is raised during the early startup processing for sqlplus and is, by nature, rather generic. Since it is raised during initialization, it's quite possible that not all libraries that might be needed for additional details (such as localized error messages) are loaded.
As the only thing you mention has changed is installation of Kaspersky, that suggests it is blocking a required library from being loaded. This error can also be raised when there is insufficient memory available (which would also prevent loading of required libraries, etc).
Here's a simple test you can do to illustrate this (obviously not on a production system, etc!):
$ cd \Oracle\11.2\database\BIN
$ dir /s /b oraclient11.dll
C:\Oracle\11.2\database\BIN\oraclient11.dll
$ rem temporarily rename the Oracle RDBMS Client Library for testing
$ ren oraclient11.dll oraclient11.dll.save
$ rem this will raise error 57 since a required library could not be loaded during initialization
$ sqlplus.exe /nolog
Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus
Error loading message shared library
$ rem be sure to change back!
$ ren oraclient11.dll.save oraclient11.dllRegards,
Mark

When i checked the parameter file i can see the value assigned to the $DBConnection_OLAP. The same tasks ran successfully when i ran the ETL process for Complete 11.5.10 for the first time. I did not change anything after that and also all these are came built-in with the installation of Oracle BI Applications.
Please anyone give me an idea what is causing the problem.
Thanks,

in DAC > Run History > Task Details, query
Name = SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Temporary
Open Status Description, look for string -lpf, the file after it is the actual parameter file DAC send to INFA server. E.g
-lpf D:\DACTOPUS\Informatica\parameters\SDE_ORAR12_Adaptor.SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Temporary.txt
Open the parameter file, most likely the [session_name] does not match with SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Derive_Full or some parameters are missing.
