Hi Rajesh,

While loging into unix the commands in .profile will be executed. At the end of the .profile you can initialise oracle environment variables and after that give sqlplus command. .profile file will be available in the home directory of the user.

Regards

Hi Rajesh,

assume you are having a unix user as rajesh.

Login as rajesh
open file .profile
Check in your .profile file whether the below environment variables has already been initialised and exported.
ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, PATH=$PATH/$ORACLE_HOME/bin etc.
If these are not initialised, initialise it.
Add sqlplus command like below
sqlplus scott/tiger
save and exit from file
logout
login as rajesh again

Regards,

Ranjith
