Yeah, Oracle, for some inexplicable reason, sets the permissions on the ORACLE_HOME directory and files to exclude other access (0750 for directories and 0640 for files). The fix is to switch to the Oracle user and reset permissions: sudo su - oracle find $ORACLE_HOME -type d|xargs chmod o+rx find $ORACLE_HOME -type f|xargs chmod o+r -- Garry T.
