Error While Loading Shared Libraries: libdb.so.2 on RedHat Linux 5

Yesterday I was installing Identity Management Suite 10g on RHL 5, while creating configuration scripts the installation failed. I was in hurry so I just brought down the system and went back home. Today morning I started the system and reviewed the log files. I notices it was only throwing this error while creating http server.


 
I created the soft link as below and just started the services and luckily every thing started up, otherwise my colleagues were going for reinstallation….

Error:

/oid/oracle/oidhome/Apache/Apache/bin/httpd: error while loading shared
libraries: libdb.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Fix:

To solve this issue, Shut down all Oracle Application Services

As root user, create a soft link as follows:
$ ln -s /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/libdb.so.2


 
That is it………
