Post-wait kernel extension not installed

Hi,
I've installed Oracle 9i 9.201 onto AIX 5L.
The problem I'm having is that the Oracle post-wait kernel extension (consisting of 2 files; pw-syscall and loadext) which are meant to be installed into the /etc folder by rootpre.sh do not get installed. Subsequently, I get an error when trying to start the Oracle RDBMS.
The rootpre.sh is supposed to pull them from the Installation CD, but they are not on it. Does anyone know where I can get these files, or know how to get them installed?
Any and all help appreciated.
Thanks,
Barry.

Hi Fredrik,
I'm working with Barry on this issue. To answer your questions:
Hardware: RS /6000 44P Model 270
Kernel: 64 bit
Oracle DB Software: 64 bit
We have the Oracle CDs for 5L that can be downloaded from the Oracle website. They come in the form of 4 .gz files named Disk 1 to 4. I assume the pw-syscall and loadext files should be on Disk 1 of the four disks. "rootpre.sh" seems to expect the files to be there, but they aren't.
The results of the commands you asked for are as follows:
#/=>ls -l /unix
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 21 Jan 6 16:59 /unix -> /usr/lib/boot/
unix_64
#/=>ps -ef |grep shlap
root 102490 1 0 12:21:39 - 0:00 /usr/ccs/bin/shlap64
root 299068 294982 0 09:22:08 pts/3 0:00 grep shlap
#/=>lslpp -L bos.rte | grep bos.rte
bos.rte 5.2.0.10 C F Base Operating System Runtime
Thanks again for you help.

Configuration of ESX VSAN Health Extension: not installed (unknown)

/localhost/GV/computers> vsan.health.cluster_status 0
Configuration of ESX VSAN Health Extension: not installed (unknown)
Per-Host details:
Host 'gvvsan2.rpionline.com' has health system version '6.0.0' installed
Host 'gvvsan3.rpionline.com' has health system version '6.0.0' installed
Host 'gvvsan1.rpionline.com' has health system version '6.0.0' installed
vCenter Server has health system version '6.0.0' installed
I installed the plugin into vCenter and then used Update Manager to install the VIBs to the hosts. All seemed to go well, but the UI says status is Unknown (at least one host is not connected.) and I get the above from RVC.
Is there another step? Is it as simple as clicking enable in the UI now that the VIBs have been installed? Thank you, Zach.

Zach,
What should happen is the following:
1. Use VUM to install the health VIB again.
2. After the cluster is remediated successfully, a "retry" button should be visible on the health page.
3. Click retry button on the health page.
4. The install task will sync the VIB status (should finish in just a few minutes)
5. The status of health service turns into ‘Enabled’.
Let me know if this is what happens.

Library extensions not installing properly from updates

Since an update about 3 months ago, every download for updates has resulted in the message "Udate Installed Successfully" followed by over 20 alert messages that System/Library/Extension ... such and such (.kext) was not installed correctly. Most of these seem to be printer drivers, but not all. For instance, "'BJUSBLoad.kext' was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." Also: exfat.kext, AppleSDXC.kext, AppleMCP89RootPortPM.kext, AppleMCCSControl.kext, IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext ....
(After the above mentioned update about 3 months ago, I attempted to fix permissions and messed it up so badly, I found myself locked out of my own 'puter - it apparently didn't recognize me - and had to take it in to an authorized repair shop for an expensive fix to override and rewrite my user ID (at least, I think that's what they did). Everything except my printer seems to have been working fine since then. I don't know if this is relevant to the issue or not, but may be ... ?)
Anyway, how do I fix this? For two months I could not print from my Epson Artisan 725 - but either my son's attempts to fix it or the latest update seems to have done something that has got it printing, instead of just producing an error message. So I guess my immediate crisis of not being able to print is resolved.
But I don't know what all this other stuff means. Do they signal something important? And why they are not updating properly?
Is it an issue on your end that you're aware of ... or need to be aware of? I'm operating on an iMac 21.5" running one partition on 10.6.8 and a second partition running Maverick. (I'm so glad I partitioned my Mac and kept the 10.6.8! So much I use daily ... like my Solitaire and other games ... are not yet available for Maverick.) Not sure, but I think I've only downloaded the updates on the 10.6.8 partition ... as that's where I am most of the time.

Hi there reb10!
Judging by the issue you are seeing, you might want to try reinstalling your operating system. This procedure is pretty simple, and we have an article that can walk you through the steps for completing this:

I would urge you to make sure you have a good backup of your data before going through this process, even though it should not affect your personal files on your computer. An article about backing up your data can be found here:

Extension not installing on Mac, works on Windows

I have written a safari extension which I'm able to install on Windows Safari, but it's not installing on a Mac Safari. On mac, when the link to the extension is clicked, executable text shows up (the initial bit is pasted here) -
xar! D}!? jz{_gw JqKt` H35$ Z8S1 wU2 0 \WCy. )1;L 51?k #c^ < "at* tcj* bZ6YhA x+XEsL H[c# m 2t &5{u<Z$ mfG# (Rt? :Lt%W 93in MP4% 3vBnV =-|7 DHz7O
The extension is available here http://snake.ims.uwm.edu/articlesearch/extensions.php . It was packaged on a Windows Safari (I don't have access to a Mac, but the bug was reported from two different sources).
Any idea why this might be happening?

Thanks. The following code worked for me (for others!)
<?php
header("Content-type: application/x-safari-extension");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=figsearch.safariextz");
readfile("figsearch.safariextz");

Novell File Upload extension not Installing

I am trying to install the Novell File Upload extension so I can upload my PE file. It will not let me install the plugin in IE or Firefox. I have tried Firefox 22 and IE 8. I have tried from an XP, Win7 and 2003 server. I have tried all of the Active X switches in IE and I have tried the adding the about:config entries in Firefox.
Has anyone gotten this to work? To be honest this is the first time I have tried to get it to work so I can not say it was working before I updated. I went from 11.2.1 mu2 to 11.2.4.

There is no Digital Signature tab for the .cab file or the .dll's inside the .cab file. I have only checked one of my primary servers. I will check the others. What would my next step be if none of them are signed?

Guid Guide Extension not installing saying its already installed for Photoshop CC 2014

1) I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the extension manager cc multiple times.
2) I have uninstalled Photoshop CC 2014 and reinstalled it
3) and yes both are up to date

Thanks... I grabbed it (all of them, actually) but now I'm having trouble installing them (not an Adobe problem, I don't think; they recently changed a bunch of security protocols here and I think that's what's preventing me from running the updater).
I am curious, though: if there was an update to the Extension Manager (and there were FIVE of them) why does my Creative Cloud app tell me that I'm up to date????

Skype App says 'Waiting' and does not Install

Tried to install Skype App on iPhone4. After more than 2 hours, the App icon still says "Waiting". I tried going back to the Apps icon but under Skype App, I am unable to deselect/reselect to install. How do I delete installation and try again?

I am having the same problems with multiple apps on my iPhone 4. Sometimes when I go into the App store it flashes up a brief message about not able to connect. However, it is still telling me there are updates for my apps, which I can't download.

Trusted Extensions not installing correctly - Solaris 10 x86 11/06

I've installed Solaris 10 11/06 x86 selecting the "development" install, and I assigned 7GB to the root slice and 3GB to /export/home. The install goes fine, so I then install Trusted Extensions. After installing Trusted Extensions and rebooting, the Trusted Extensions CDE desktop is not listed as a login option. The JDS Trusted Extensions desktop is listed, but attempting to login to it gives the error "Your X Server has not been set up with SUN_TSOL extension to login to Trusted JDS. Select ordinary JDS to login", and the login fails. Are there any required steps that are not listed in the documentation, or are Trusted Extensions broken in Solaris 10 version 11/06? Any tips at all are greatly appreciated.

It took me a few days of headaches, but I finally figured it out! I'm working under VMWare, and installing VMWareTools in Solaris 10 seems to somehow break the Trusted Extensions. There are no errors, the Trusted Extension features just don't work. When I installed the Trusted Extensions first I did get the Trusted CDE desktop and it logged in just fine, but after installing VMWareTools the desktop option disappeared from the login menu. I hope this helps someone else.

VirtualBox error in Yosemite... anyone solve yet? Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

Kernal driver missing after upgrade from Mavericks to Yosemite. I need to write code today.... Help!!

I had the same issue after I upgrade to Yosemite. I was on VirtualBox 4.2.
After I upgrade VirtualBox to 4.3.18, it seems back to work again. The Check for Updates menu told me 4.2 is the latest so I have to download 4.3.18 from VirtualBox website instead. Good luck...

Clicked 'Apply':

After waiting it is not installed:

iTunes - up to date
iOs - up to date
Comuper - authorized
No error messages, NOTHING! Just not installing.
Why I am not allowed to install my purchased app??!!

Any app can be purchased frome the iTunes store via the iTunes application on the computer.
That does not change the fact that some apps are iPhone only, some are iPad only and some will work on any iOS device. There are even apps that require a specific iOS version or higher.... all of which determines what will install on your specific iOS device.
Read the requirements before purchasing apps so that you do not run into this issue in the future.

Refurbished MacBook Air won't boot up. First time turning on and I'm met with Kernel Extension problems. Help?

I turn on the power button, and then it tells me a load of data. I cannot load up my MacBook, to even get to a set up page. I have only had it put of the box 10 minutes and turned it on once haha.
It shows the apple logo, an then brings up the data, where it says things like
"Panic(cpu 0 caller -loads of numbers-) "pthread Kernel extension not loaded (function table is NULL)
BSD process name corresponding to current thread: kernel_task
Mac OS Version:
Not set yet
Darwin Kernel version 13.0.0
What could this be? Apple support is unavailable to call until Tuesday apparently
Please help. I just want to use my new MacBook

Felix, there is nothing you should do about this other than to return it to Apple for a refund, and purchase another. I wouldn't think twice about it.

Kernel extension did NOT load

After reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling 9.2.2 and all necessary upgrades to reach 10.4.11, I can no longer see my Aurora Igniter capture card (which worked fine before the reformat). When I reboot using 9.2.2, the card IS seen and works flawlessly. But when I restart in 10.4.11, it's gone. When I open Ignition in System Preferences, I get the message: "The kernel extension igniter.kext did not load!" and it says no driver was installed. I see a driver in my OS 9 System folder extensions folder, but a search of my hard drive shows no such .kext file exists anywhere. Any ideas? I know Aurora is no longer in business but I'm trying not to have to replace my capture card and breakout box. Also, I'm using the latest driver for the card.
Thanks!

Everything is the same as before, except that I installed FCP Studio to replace 4.5 Otherwise, it's the same OS, same QT... unfortunately, although I backed up most things, I failed to back up my OS 9 system folder. I do, however, have a copy of the original installation log of the Aurora card back in 2002, for what it's worth. This is, of course, the install under 9.2.2, which is still working.

Kernal Panic after attempting to install IOUSBFamily Kernel Extensions

Wondering if anyone can direct me on how to "Restore" my Original IOUSBFamily files? Tried to install what I thought was "updated" Developer IOUSBFamily from Apple's website but on Re-boot my MBP won't start up at all. Keep getting a message "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button" (black screen with a grey power button behind the text).
I'm 100% sure of two things; 1st - Yes I'm an idiot for installing something I wasn't sure of 2nd - the cause is the IOUSBFamily drivers I installed.
Luckily I have my old hard drive here and I can get my MBP booted using it via an external enclosure with USB Cable. The Apple Support article I read indicates "you can use Terminal to restore the original IOUSBFamily kernel extension back into the /system/library/extensions".
Already tried the obvious - tried copying the "extensions" folder from my old drive to the corrupt drive and no go. Anyone know how on earth I restore the old files?
Many thanks to any who can offer assistance!

If all else fails, you can reinstall Snow Leopard using the same installer disc you used to install it originally (or your grey system discs if your Mac came with Snow Leopard installed). This will not erase your user files but you will have to update the OS & Apple-supplied apps after the installation. This isn't as painful as it sounds if you use the Software Update app immediately following the first normal restart after the installation completes. Software Update is smart enough to pick the most appropriate update(s) to get your Mac back to the latest software, including automatically picking the Combo version of the OS updater if the installed version is more than one minor version behind the latest one.
In fact, given how slow a Time Machine restore can be, if you have a fast high speed Internet connection this could take less time & effort on your part than doing the TM restore. Plus, it guarantees that you get the latest versions of everything & that they are all properly linked.
