That fixed it for me. Chris, Hopefully it will work for you as well.

Here is the revised step 8:


8) Test it

Bring your test page up in the browser like:
http://www.yoursite.com/oracle_test.cfm

If you get an error like this:

ODBC Error Code = IM003 (Specified driver could not be loaded)

Try typing changing the permission on the oracle home directory to 755 and
give the test page another try.

If CF is still unable to load the ODBC driver, it boils down to the library
search path or client library filename.

Set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH and try using the ldd command on the Oracle driver:
ldd /opt/coldfusion/lib/CFor815.so

Note the libclntsh.so library it is looking for and make sure the ColdFusion
user (nobody?) can access the Oracle directories.

Now you should be able to bring up your test cfm page and see the results of
your test query! Congratulations!

Camden
