Error while running cr9idata.pl during database upgrade to 11.2.0.2

Question

I am updating the R12 database (11.1.0.7) to 11.2.0.2 following document, <Interoperability Notes EBS R12 with Database 11gR2, 1058763.1>.
In the step 7, to create nls/data/9idata directory...
When I ran the perl script, I get the error as below.
$ perl cr9idata.pl
perl: symbol lookup error: /d01/oracle/SID/db/tech_st/11.2.0/perl/lib/5.10.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cwd/Cwd.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Istack_sp_ptr
Then, when I tried to check with sqlplus, I now have the error as below.
SQL> connect user/password AS SYSDBA
ERROR:
ORA-12162: TNS:net service name is incorrectly specified
SQL> exit
Then, when I checked some relevant environment, I noticed TNS_ADMIN is empty.
$ echo $ORA_NLS10
/d01/oracle/SID/db/tech_st/11.2.0/nls/data/9idata
$ echo $TNS_ADMIN
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/d01/oracle/SID/db/tech_st/11.2.0/lib
However, if I run the old environment file in old ORACLE_HOME, then the TNS_ADMIN points to the old one (/d01/oracle/SID/db/tech_st/11.1.0/network/admin/SID_host).
And I believe this is not valid...
At the same time, when I check the tnsnames.ora, there are only example/default files under <samples> directory.
$ cd /d01/oracle/SID/db/tech_st/11.2.0/network/admin/
$ ls
samples shrept.lst
How should this be handled to proceed to the next step?
Should I define TNS_ADMIN with the old path...???

Hi;
Please DO NOT use your old oracle_home, as note mention The ORACLE_HOME environment variable points to the new 11.2.0 Oracle home.
Please set below wiht new ORACLE_HOME than try steo 7
- The ORACLE_HOME environment variable points to the new 11.2.0 Oracle home.
- The PATH environment variable includes $ORACLE_HOME/bin and the directory where the new perl executable is located (usually $ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin).
- The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable includes $ORACLE_HOME/lib.
- The PERL5LIB environment variable points to the directories where the new perl libraries are located (usually $ORACLE_HOME/perl/lib/[perl version] and $ORACLE_HOME/perl/lib/site_perl/[perl version])
