Use locate or find, and figure out where the binaries are. Or su to the SQL user, and use which from there. Then try calling them with their full path. JW At 03:56 PM 10/2/2000 -0600, you wrote:

It returns NOTHING with the "which sqlplus" or "which ora"

But the strange situation is that if the Oracle User could run without problems the applications and have the SAME .bash_profile that the user "kwebb" why the second user can't find the applications ?

I'm sorry, I didn't read the whole thing last time. Let's take this one line at a time:

icarus:/home/kwebb # whoami root icarus:/home/kwebb # su - kwebb kwebb@icarus:~ > sqlplus bash: sqlplus: command not found

that's because it can't _find_ it, not because it can't read it. try "which sqlplus" if that fails try "locate sqplus"

kwebb@icarus:~ > oerr ora 0600 bash: oerr: command not found

Same for this binary.

kwebb@icarus:~ >

If all that fails try find (use kfind if you like GUIs)

Once you find it show me the full path.
