Apparently the Oracle Enterprise Stage uses sqlldr client.

Once we reinstalled the Oracle Client with all its utility and software. And retried running Oracle Enterprise Stage job. The issue was resolved.

g++ compilation option -KPIC?

I am using g++ compiler on Solaris 10 and I can't compile yet. The compilation error stated that -KPIC not support. I didn't put it in the Linkeropt or compilerOpt. I wonder where that is set and how can I get rid of it?

thanks in advance.
