Installing DI on Linux impossible : libclntsh.so does not exist

Question

Hello,
We have an ECC6 ehp4 system (Central Instance) running on HPUX Itanium (B.11.23).
The database being Oracle 10.2 : Database Client Library : OCI_102 (10.2.0.2.0)
Now, we are trying to add a dialog instance running on a Linux Suse application server (Linux 2.6.5-7.244)
While performing the installation of the dialog instance we are facing a fatal error :
INFO 2010-08-09 12:07:08.526
Removing file /oracle/client/10x_64/dbclient.lst.

FSL-02015  Node /oracle/client/10x_64/.created_by_SAPinst/instantclient_10204/libclntsh.so does not exist.
At this point the installation is cancelled
I checked the file libclntsh.so, in the aformentionned location, and it deosn't seem to be an autorization issue.

Hi Raoul,
The issue you are facing can be solved by following the below SAPnote
1416829 - Error: Oracle Shared Library <libclntsh.so> not found during Data Service installation.
However I am copying the solution from the SAPnote
Make changes in file EIMDSsetupcommon.pm at below part of code.
sub DSrepomanCMD
if ( $DBTYPE eq "Oracle") #Oracle
$DBCHECK_ENV = "$EIMDBENV/lib";
$repo_cmd .= "ORACLE_HOME=$EIMDBENV; export ORACLE_HOME; ";
Fixed it by changing "$DBCHECK_ENV = "$EIMDBENV/lib"; to "$DBCHECK_ENV = "$EIMDBENV/lib32"; in EIMDSsetupcommon.pm.
All the best !
