Wrong ORACLE_HOME on installation causing ORA-09925 errors

I am experiencing the same problem that was posted in another Database Administration community post on 3/28/2013, "Cannot startup sqlplus as sql".

What is different about the problem in my environment is that I think I know what is causing it.  That is, when I Installed 11gR2 the other day on the server, I think I entered the wrong value for the ORACLE_HOME variable.   From the installation log...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PROPERTY                                               VALUE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 AutoUpdatesInstallSettings                             oracle.install.ivw.common.bean.AutoUpdates
                                                        InstallSettings@396ab2e8
...

 ORACLE_BASE                                            /usr/orasys11
 ORACLE_HOME                                            /usr/orasys22/11.2.X
 ORACLE_HOSTNAME                                        dbuat01...

But /usr/orasys22/11.2.X does not exist.  It should have been /usr/orasys11/11.2.X.  The software was installed correctly in the specified ORACLE_BASE but I'm not sure what all was affected by the ORACLE_HOME.

Howdy, Stranger!
