Thanks for your reply. I installed Sun Studio 12 and put it in path.
But I still get the same error message

So,
1. it does find oracle instant client in export/home/roradmin1/oracle/
instantclient_11_1
2. it still complains about cc compiler (I have tried gcc as well)
I am close to committing suicide! Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks
