Linux (Oracle Linux, RHEL)

Ensure libaio, libXext, and libXp packages are installed:

sudo yum install libaio libXext libXp

Also, set LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Platform-Specific Notes

Step 5. Set REPORTS_PATH (Advanced)

Sometimes Reports Builder expects additional paths via REPORTS_PATH environment variable. This variable tells Reports where to find resources, including message files. Platform-Specific Notes Step 5

Set temporarily:

set REPORTS_PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\reports\mesg

Or include multiple paths:

set REPORTS_PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\reports\mesg;%ORACLE_HOME%\reports\sql

Step 2: Verify Environment Variables

Check these critical variables:

| Variable | Expected Value | |----------|----------------| | ORACLE_HOME | Path to your Oracle installation (e.g., C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home) | | REPORTS_PATH | Should include <ORACLE_HOME>\reports\templates and <ORACLE_HOME>\reports\mesg | | PATH | Must contain <ORACLE_HOME>\bin and <ORACLE_HOME>\reports\bin | On Linux/Unix: echo $ORACLE_HOME echo $REPORTS_PATH

On Windows:

echo %ORACLE_HOME%
echo %REPORTS_PATH%

On Linux/Unix:

echo $ORACLE_HOME
echo $REPORTS_PATH
