Shared Library Search Path (Linux)
On some Linux platforms, Actian Ingres uses shared libraries. Since Actian Ingres does not have a default installation directory, it is necessary to point applications and tools to where the Actian Ingres shared libraries can be found. Doing so allows authorized users to access Actian Ingres programs or applications.
The name of the shared library search path depends on the flavor of Linux:
• Most Linux environments use LD_LIBRARY_PATH
• HP-UX uses SHLIB_PATH
• AIX versions 3 and 4 use LIBPATH
See the ld(1) or ld.so(1) man page documentation.
To define the Actian Ingres installation shared library search path
Set the library environment variable to include the Actian Ingres library directory, $II_SYSTEM/ingres/lib.
Failure to set the library variable will result in the error message:
ld.so.1: /ing20/20/ingres/bin/tm: fatal:
libframe.1.so: open failed: No such file or directory
