Solution

Please ensure the $ORACLE_HOME is set:

    env | grep ORACLE_HOME

If it is not set, set it and then follow one of the following options:

Option 1:
======
If the file is missing, create $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst with a text editor and put the following lines into it.

network : snaumihi_inithostinfo
network : snaumbg_gmt
network : naedpwd_encrypt
network : naumbsb_bld_singlebyte
network : ztapis

Using the 'ls -al' command, check that the file has 644 permissions:

-rw-r--r-- $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

If necessary, change the permissions using the command:

chmod 644 $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

Now manually relink using the command 'relink all'

Option 2:
======
If the file is missing, for Oracle9i extract it from the first 9.2.0.1.0 CD as follows:

cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
jar xvf /cdrom/cdrom0/stage/Components/oracle.rsf.net_rsf/9.2.0.1.0/1/DataFiles/admin.1.1.jar shrept.lst

For Oracle10g extract the missing file from the first 10.2.0.1.0 CD as follows:

cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
jar xvf <10.2.0.1staging_area>/stage/Components/oracle.network.rsf/10.2.0.1.
0/1/DataFiles/filegroup8.jar

Using the 'ls -al' command, check that the file has 644 permissions:

-rw-r--r-- $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

If necessary, change the permissions using the command:

chmod 644 $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

Now manually relink using the command 'relink all'

Option 3:
======
Manually copy the file from another Oracle9i/10g installation

Using the 'ls -al' command, check that the file has 644 permissions:

-rw-r--r-- $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

If necessary, change the permissions using the command:

chmod 644 $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/shrept.lst

Now manually relink using the command 'relink all'
