Problem:Oracle Pro*c Precompiler on Linux

Question

Hi,
PLEASE HELP!!!!
Regards
Bhagat Singh
Before discussing all these issue I want to inform u that this code is running code in sun solaris means it compiles cleanly and runs without flaws or error and results are to the mark.
But in linux first of all it does not compiles if it compiles then it does not produce the right/desired results .
1.ora erro 1008
2.ora errno 1438
3.ora errno 1403
Information is there in database but update is not working and returning code 1403
if it is working then also the message is "no data found".
Pl/Sql block is being used in the Pro*c code so we have made SQLCHECK = SEMANTICS then also it is not working.
When we use math.h then also it does not compiles at all and falters out.
When I update the database it does not updates may there be relevant information present in the database, but if i do select count(*) into :variable from the same table then it updates else it fails to do so they all are peculiar issues.
Some times it says parent record not found in the master whereas it very exists over there.
Some times core dump if I define two dimensional char pointer array of 10000 size it results in core dump
say char_ptr[300][10000] .
Some functions in the program return char pointer there also it is giving and error where and I am collecting the information from the return variable through string copying and it is having clear cut definition in header files for the return type of that function this is working very well in sun but I fail to understand about linux.

I have very similar problems, all of which I have been able to work around, except for the very serious defect where the executed code returns bizarre errors like no data found for a query like:
EXEC SQL SELECT sum(X) INTO :var FROM table;
These same programs were working just fine under Oracle 8.0.5 on Solaris/Intel 2.6 w/ gcc 2.7.2p.
My configuration is RedHat 6.2 / Kernel 2.2.14-6.1.1smp / gcc egcs-2.91.66 (release 1.1.2) / glibc 2.1.3-15
Note: Pro*C 8.1.6 for Linux does come with some alternate system header files in $ORACLE_HOME/proc/syshdr. This should fix your math.h problem if you place that directory early in your include path.
