DBCA will not start with error NJNI10

1. If you see the error below when trying to execute DBCA try the next three steps to resolve.

[oracle@mylinux1 bin]$ ./dbca

UnsaUntitled 1tisfiedLinkError exception loading native library: njni10

[oracle@mylinux1 bin]$

2. Create the following soft links in $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory and retry ./dbca command.

[oracle@mylinux1 bin]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnjni10.dylib $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnjni10
[oracle@mylinux1 bin]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.dylib $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.dylib.10.1

3. If the previous step did not resolve the issue ensure that the variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH contains both $ORACLE_HOME/lib and $ORACLE_HOME/lib32. Re-execute your .bash file and retry ./dbca command.

[oracle@mylinux1 ~]$ vi .bash_profile
[oracle@mylinux1 ~]$ . ./.bash_profile

4. If the previous step did not resolve the issue, install or re-install the following 32 bit packages: glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.36.i386.rpm and glibc-2.3.4-2.36.i686.rpm. Then cd to $ORACLE_HOME/bin and execute ./relink all. Finally, retry the ./dbca command.
