Hi,
I have created the install.sh file mentioned above and executed it but the following error comes:

issue is fixed.

the problem was since I use zshesll I need to add
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/Oracle/product/instantclient/12.1.0.2.0/lib
in my ~/.zshrc file

Hi, thank you for the script, I modified it a little so I can easily re-run it multiple times. I had to do so because I had incorrect installation of the sqlplus before and it was reporting errors that it cannot create file links.

The change is following: ln -s -> ln -sf
