prometheus_oracle_exporter: error while loading shared libraries:

[sergiohl1324]

I have a problem when I start the service:

prometheus_oracle_exporter: /usr/local/bin/prometheus_oracle_exporter: error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.12.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have my env correct:

export ORACLE_BASE=/orasoft/oracle/product
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/12.2.0.1/db
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH

And the library exist but don´t work:

[root@aquilesoralxvd012 system]# find / -name libclntsh.so.12.1
/oracw/grid/product/12.2.0.1/grid/lib/libclntsh.so.12.1

/orasoft/oracle/product/12.2.0.1/db/inventory/Scripts/ext/lib/libclntsh.so.12.1

Any idea for fix this ?

The current binary is build agains 12.1 Libraries.

You have two options to fix your problem

1. Build the Exporter against 12.2 Libraries
2. Install in parallel 12.1 libraries.

Probably not relevant, but you can simlink libclntsh.so.12.1 to libclntsh.so. This solved my problem.
