This is because you haven't set your ORACLE_HOME environment. This should be set to the directory in which you have installed your client libraries e.g.

#for ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/OraHome1

Note If you are using the Instant Client, you will need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of ORACLE_HOME. Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to specify the location where the Instant Client is installed. For example:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/instantclient
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

There are other environments that you will probably also need to set:

#for Easysoft
EASYSOFT_HOME=/usr/local/easysoft
export EASYSOFT_HOME

#for libclntsh.so
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

#for libodbcinst.so
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$EASYSOFT_HOME/unixODBC/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

#for isql
PATH=$PATH:$EASYSOFT_HOME/unixODBC/bin
export PATH

Please be aware that the command LD_LIBRARY_PATH will be different across the various flavors of Unix and also the file extensions will differ.
