Environment: PostgreSQL 9.1.6 SLES 11 SP2 Oracle_fdw 0.9.7 I am trying to implement the use of oracle_fdw. So far I have installed an oracle client on my postgres server. I can connect to the oracle environment from the postgres server (as postgres os user) by navigating to $ORACLE_HOME/bin then ./sqlplus /nolog then: connect user@instance I have downloaded and run make and make install for the oracle_fdw - both executed successfully. I have created the extension successfully. I have created a foreign server, foreign data wrapper and a foreign table. When i try a select from the foreign table I get: ERROR: error connecting to Oracle: OCIEnvCreate failed to create environment handle DETAIL: ERROR: error connecting to Oracle: OCIEnvCreate failed to create environment handle SQL state: HV00N from what limited info i can find this is most likely due to my ORACLE_HOME environment variable or other environment setting? I have set ORACLE_HOME in postgres user .bash_profile Where should i set ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN environment variables? Is there something else I am missing? Does the database require to be restarted following any changes to environment variables?
