Hi,

I tried to find the path where the sqlplus is located by using the commands whereis and find but it did not display the path. Please see below. I wonder how you do it. Thanks.

Code:
$ whereis sqlplus
sqlplus:
$ find sqlplus
find: cannot stat sqlplus

Doing that from your home directory (or anywhere else) will only find files in or under that location so would not be, in this case, a lot of use.
