I'm not familiar with linux but In our environment (UNIX) during compilation
we use
cat /dba/oracle/product/oas_10.1.2/bin/comp.sh
that contains
# You should not normally need to modify these settings.
#
if [ `uname -s` = 'SunOS' ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/sparc:$ORACLE_HO
ME/jdk/jre/lib/sparc/native_threads:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
elif [ `uname -s` = 'HP-UX' ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/IA64N:$ORACLE_H
OME/jdk/jre/lib/IA64N/server:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
elif [ `uname -s` = 'Linux' ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/i386/server:$ORACL
E_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/i386/native_threads:$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/i386:$LD_LIBRARY
_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

the ORACLE_HOME points to the home of the application server (ORACLE_HOME=/dba/oracle/product/oas_10.1.2)

the FORMS_PATH points to the directories of the pll-libraries
the current directory during our compilation is the directory containing the fmb

In EBS R12, you cannot simply use the basic Oracle Forms10 compile program to compile *.fmb files that are part of EBS, like you could if you had a custom app that used Oracle Forms10. There is a special EBS executable (it might be adadmin.sh in the $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME of the application server) that you have to use for this task.

You have to use the "adadmin" utility in EBS R12 to recompile a form. In our system, that utility is in: $APPL_CONFIG_HOME/ad/12.0.0/bin.
