Oracle 9i install Errors on SuSE Linux 9

I am getting a makefile error on ins_rdbms.mk during the initial install of Oracle 9i.
I've done a grep on make while it is running, and see the command is as follows:
usr/bin/make -f /usr/local/Oracle/oracleSTM/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk ioracle ORACLE_HOME=/usr/local/Oracle/oracleSTM
When I run it manually, I get the following errors:
hidden symbol `__fixunssfdi' in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.1/libgcc.a(_fixunssfdi.oS) is referenced by DSO
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sean

Hello Widya,
I am glad that you found our documents helpful.
Did you face any problems while following the document? Was it clear enough? Did the installation go as documented?
If no, then I would like to hear about them. We can update the document to make it more useful to OTN Users.
It would be very helpful is you can mention the problems; if any.
Thanks,
Rajat

  • Unable to install Oracle Developer Suite 10 on SuSe Linux 11.0

    Hi all,
    I have installed Oracle 11g on SuSe Linux 11.0 with no issues. I am unable to install Oracle Developer Suite10.12.02 on same (SuSe 11.0). The installation gets to about 94% and then fails with the following error:

    The only serious flaw I can see in the config is that I'm using libstd++ 4.3 instead of the requested 3.2.2 which 'should' be acceptable as it's a newer version - can anyone help please? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice anyone can offer.
    Richard Foley
    ps. What's also a bit odd, is that the overall exit status of the installation is regarded as succesful...

    Hi Hub,
    Done that, nothing:

    On the off-chance that it had something to do with installing Oracle 11.0 with ODS Developer 10.0, I've rolled my database installation back too, so now I have:

    Please also read the install documentation. This has been noted as a requirement for oracle-xe (you need one more lib ;) ) This also helps you setup your DB, etc, etc.

  • Can't install Forte4j on SuSE Linux 8.0 ...

    Hi all,
    I tried to install Forte4J on my SuSE Linux 8.0. But I receive a strange error during the installation process.
    "package 02f06fd12771dbf359f999a9adb8b305-4.0- is not installed"
    So, which package do I need? ;-) I installed JDK 1.4.1 which runs fine and is found by the Forte installer. But I didn't install it as a RPM - because there was no RPM available.
    Maybe someone can give me a hint on that ...
    Thnx.
    Axel

    There's a new bin file available for JDK 1.4.1 and it works even if after the
    installation the error appears. ;-)
    But be sure NOT to download the combined JDK and SunOneStudio bin file with about
    98 MB. There's a bin file available which contains only SunOneStudio for
    JDK 1.4.1. Use that one!

  • Oracle 8.1.5 on SUSE Linux 7.2 - Is it worth it?

    Hello-
    I have been trying to install Oracle 8.1.5EE on SUSE 7.2 for
    days now and the installation has been the worst I have
    encountered in many a year! I am thinking about scapping this
    whole thing and moving onto another RDMS. If and when I get
    Oracle running on Linux will I be faced with these same
    installtion problems in my day to day maintenence? For such a
    well known company I sure thought they could come up with
    something slicker than this!
    Problems so far:
    JRE - Too many to list.
    OraInstaller:
    1. Does not show any Networking options
    2. Reports not enough space for a 4GB /u01
    3. Even when I select to "not" to run dbassist it does anyways
    Patch:
    1. I had to dig through mounds of documentation to find this
    patch was neccesary.
    2. Reboot. ?
    dbassist:
    1. Unset NLS_LANG etc...
    2. SIGFAULTS halfway thru process.
    At this point I am ready to bag Oracle and go with PostgreSQL
    Sincerely,
    Davin Flatten

    Look, nobody should be going to anything other than 901 on 7.2.
    Do you like to waste your time? Fastcenter sells these systems,
    they install without a flaw and they're rock solid. Why install
    a version that's unsupported ?!?

    You find all (including Linux) installation guides here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database10g.html
    But note, this documentation does not cover installation on unsupported Linux versions, here you have to check sources like

  • How to install j2sdk into Suse Linux

    How to install the j2sdk-1_4_0_03-linux-i586.bin into Suse Linux 8.1

    I done it like this:
    user@linux:~> chmod a+x j2sdk-1_4_0_03-linux-i586-rpm.bin
    user@linux:~> ./j2sdk-1_4_0_03-linux-i586-rpm.bin
    accept licence
    user@linux:~> rpm -iv j2sdk-1_4_0_03-fcs-linux-i586.rpm
    so its installed but not linked
    i install the sdk1.3.x from my suse cd so it create a java2.conf file in /etc/java/
    and change it to:
    # Configuration for java2 package
    Priority: 60
    Vendor : Sun
    Version : 1.4.0
    Devel : True
    JAVA_BINDIR = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03/bin
    JAVA_ROOT = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03
    JAVA_HOME = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03
    JRE_HOME = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03/jre
    JDK_HOME = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03
    SDK_HOME = /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_03
    JAVA_LINK = j2sdk1.4.0_03
    be sure that CREATE_JAVALINK in sysconfig is set to yes
    else edit it in yast->system->Editor /etc/sysconfig
    after that i uninstall jre1.3.x and sdk1.3.x
    and it works
    good luck

  • MDM 5.5 SP05 installation - Anyone installed it on SUSE Linux?

    In accordance to my previous post, I will give the whole story of my installation in order to make it clear.
    It is about a test server , running Linux SUSE LES 9.3. We want to install on it MDM5.5 (without NetWeaver -stand alone installation) and ORACLE 10g database.
    So I started with the ORACLE 10.2 installation which went fine.
    Now I am in the process of installing the MDM 5.5 on the same Linux server.
    The installation guide is very poor regarding instructions for Linux like systems:
    Extract the MDM Server, Import Server, and Syndication Server files from the archives with the
    following name structure:
    <server>.<incremental version>.<rebuild version>-<platform>-<compiler>.tar.<archive extension>
    2. Place the server files in the root directory under /opt.
    We recommend to place and install all servers (MDS, MDIS, MDSS) in the same folder, for
    example /opt/MDM/bin.
    3. Install each server folder by executing tar -xvf <server file>.
    4. Delete the server archives and files.
    Launching the Servers
    1. Define a user account named mdm to run the MDM Servers on.
    A process may not allocate more memory than the value of the ulimit -d command. So set
    this value as large as possible for the mdm user. On some Unix-based OS, unlimited is
    default, but on others, the kernel imposes a maximum value. Check your system carefully to
    determine the optimum setting.
    For AIX 64bit, we recommend adding ulimit -d unlimited to the user profile of mdm.
    2. Log in as the mdm user.
    3. In the mdm account's home directory (or a subdirectory), set up execution directories for the servers.
    The execution directories will contain various runtime files (for example, nohup.out for error
    messages) that are created and used by the MDM server software. Normally these directories do not
    require any manual intervention.
    We strongly recommend to set up an execution folder structure similar to the following example
    to run each server process in its dedicated folder:
    ~mdm/mdm/mds
    /mdis
    /mdss
    This ensures that the runtime files of the different servers are clearly separated.
    Ensure that you make the dedicated execution directory the current one before launching one of
    the servers. Use pushd to set the execution directory each time you run one of the servers.
    4. Launch each server (MDM Server, Import Server, and Syndication Server) from the mdm user
    account by executing mds, mdis, or mdss from within the server's dedicated execution directory.
    Do not run mds, mdis,or mdss from the installation directory or any subdirectory (this is the directory defined in the MDM_HOME variable).
    So I have followed all these instructions but I am not sure what does it mean to "set execution directory"!!! My MDM home is /opt/MDM/bin under binI have mds,mdis and mdss with the respective scripts. I run them to launch the servers and I get the error:
    mdm@mucsapt2:/opt/MDM/bin> ./mds-r
    ./mds-r: error while loading shared libraries: libxerces-c.so.26: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    The libraries are there under /opt/MDM/liband with the right access rights.
    The document says to run the mds-r from the execution path which should be under /home/mdm. Does it mean that I have to copy all the scripts there? It is not clear at all.
    I am surprised, such  a big forum and nobody had faced this issue. Is there anybody who did the installation on Linux? From what I see there are not too many questions for the installation itself. Was it so straight forward for all you?
    Thanks in advance,
    Loukas

    Unsupported Linux version should not make a major difference in this case...
    This happens because your system runs out of swap space necessary for installer to fork and exec external process which configures the domain. Solution is to increase the amount of swap space available to installer - on Solaris this is usually done by cleaning up any unnecessary content from /tmp partition and shuting down non-essential processes prior to reinstalling. I suppose the same steps would help on Linux.
    Before reinstallation you should also use provided uninstaller to cleanup this failed installation if you intend to install in the same location.

    I have tried installing 10g several times and it keeps failing. You said that the document is complete and the installation works fine. I would love to know how you got your installation to work because I am getting the same problem that this guy ran into.

  • Oracle 9i install error in writing to temp file

    Could someone please help?
    I'm trying to install the Oracle 9i client (v.9.2) on windows xp, but getting this error:
    "Error in writing to directory C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\OraInstall2005-09-15-xxxxxxx". Please ensure that this directory is writable and has atleast 32 MB of disk space. Installation cannot continue.
    I deleted the install on the temp folder, there is more than enough space to write (over 20gb free hd space). I'm lost on how to fix it, and have wasted far too much time trying to get it to work. Please help!!!

    You could set TEMP and TMP temporarily in a DOS box :
    set TEMP=<temp_directory>
    sert TMP=<temp_directory>
    Then start setup.exe out of this DOS box.
    Unfortunately there are reported many possible reasons for this error, including bugs.
    Maybe this metalink note could help:
