Re: Advanced Server - Oracle 9i install issues

[Robert Monical <tech restek com>]

Sorry about the last.

Looks like this is a not a "certified" configuration

Here is what Orale sez about 7.1............  I have not tried this install yet

APPENDIX A - Solutions for the relinking problem seen with Oracle 9.0.1 on 
Red Hat 7.1.
Option 1: (remove "-z defs" from genclntsh file) (Workaround)
1. When you get errors from OUI installer, open a window, and cd to the
Oracle Home installation target location
2. Set Oracle environment ORACLE_HOME to this target directory.
3. Use editor to modify $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh file, to remove -z defs 
from it.
4. Then run this script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh to create Oracle libraries.
5. Go back to OUI error window, and click on retry bottom to continue.
Option 2: (update the binutils) You have to follow these steps to solve the 
re-linking problem:
1. Update the binutils-2.10.91.0.2-3 to binutils-2.10.91.0.4-1 2.
You can get the binutils patch at the following URL:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils/binutils-2.10.91.0.4-1.i386.rpm 

3. Relink Oracle binaries.
