i am upgrading my geodatabase instance from 9.3.1 to 10.1
my environment: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.3) ArcSDE 9.3.1 SP2 IBM AIX 6.1
i want to enable st_geometry on my instance, i have followed esri procedure, however every time i run the pre-requisite upgrade tool i still face the warning message "The latest ST_GEOMETRY and dependent libraries need to be copied to the correct software location"
i have used the geoprocessing tool "create spatial type", and used the "sys" user (which is by the way not a good security practice to access a 'sys' user from the client, which requires the creation of a password file,...etc)
the tool ran for 3 seconds and stated "successful" message, however it gave me a warning that a "geodatabase instance already exists".
i have copied the st_shapelibrary.so from $SDEHOME/lib to under my $ORACLE_HOME/lib also i have updated the external procedure file under $ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin with a directory referencing the $ORACLE_HOME/lib/st_shapelibarary
is this the right path where should i place the library ?
or should i place it locally on my machine where ArcGIS desktop ? if this is the case.....can someone please provide the directory?
Do not copy anything from SDEHOME. The most recent libraries are part of the Desktop unstall (under the Desktop10.1/DatabaseSupport/Oracle folder, as described by the documentation). You should apply 10.1 SP1 before copying.
