OpenSuse10.3 Installation of Application Server 10.1.3.1

Question

Hi all,
today I have installed an Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1 on OpenSuse10.3. Installation with the Oracle Installer was ok, just the last step when Oracle tried to configure Oracle Application Server components was not successful. I retried the step without success. I then quit the Oracle installer and tried to start the http-server with the opmn tool. I recieve the following falilure message: "HTTP: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
The file is really not present on the system. After some time on google I think I need some packages and install them. I tried to download and install the package "gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-34.1.i386" but without success because of dependencies. Unfortunately I Cannot find the packages needed to install the gnome-libs.
Can anybody help me on this?

Hi Shail,
thanks for your answer. No, unfortunately I did not
take a look. But I am now able to start the
HTTP-Server. After hours spent on google I finally
found the right package and installed it. One
Question is left: When I run opmnctl status and the
HTTP-Server is "Alive", does this mean that I can
navigate to http://hostname.domainname:http_port and
see the welcome page? If this is the case, there is
something wrong, because I get an error screen
instead of the welcome page...

MarkusThat's right, if you are successfully able to start OHS, you should be able to see the welcome page. What error do you see, a 404 or 500?
But agree with Jacco that you might uncover more issues down the road so it is better to reinstall (after successfully meeting all prereqs) vs. spending time trying to diagnose and fix.
Thanks
Shail
