[Geoserver-users] OCI and Tomcat (Linux)

[Bart v. d. E. <ba...@xs...>]

Hi list,

today I had to install Geoserver with OCI support on Tomcat 5 (Red Hat 
Enterprise).

I ran into one issue which I did solve but not very graciously. I am 
hoping somebody here knows a better way to do it.

When adding an OCI datastore, I would get a message that libocijdbc10.so 
could not be found in the java.library.path (and another one). The 
directory which contains that "so" does exist in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
(does Tomcat pick that up?).

I solved it by creating a symlink to the "so" in usr/lib (which was 
already in java.library.path or the other one).

Does anybody know how to solve this more graciously?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Bart
