Help install Tuxedo 8.0 on RedHat Linux 7.2

Question

Greetings,
I'm trying to install Tuxedo 8.0 on a RedHat Linux 7.2,
using the tuxedo80_linux.bin (from www.bea.com site) ,
and face the following problems :
. I dont' know what are the dependencies needed (I saw
JRE and installed it, but it don't seem to be the only thing
to do...)
. I don't know if this package will work on RedHat 7.x
(libc changed since 6.2, which is the 'reference' release for
Tuxedo 8...)
any links, tips, report of working on it ?
Is an RPM package exist (made by BEA or not) ?

Who can help me?:(Alex,
I believe that happens because Tux 8.0 was done for RH 6.2 which uses a
different version of glibc. If you're running RH 7.2 you need to install
the compat62 packages. The RPMs should be on the install CDs or available
from the RH site.
Once installed you need to set the appropriate environment variables as
shown below:
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
export LDEMULATION=elf_i386_glibc21 # This is so that when genclntsh runs
# ld, it first looks at
usr/i386-glibc21-linux/lib
# for libraries
export GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/lib/gcc-lib/
# This is so that the gcc driver uses
# the compatibility compiler
After this the installer should work just fine. The problem, i think, was
that the JVM that came in the installation archive was compiled with the
old libgc and would barf unless you're running in compatibility mode.
You'll need to set these environment vars. when running Tux as well.
Hope this helps.
