Oracle installation struck on RH 5.4 in linking stage

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are installing EP 7 with EHP1 on Distributed Instances on Red Hat

Linux 5.4 X86_64.

I have installed the SCS instance. But we are struck in installing the

Database Software on the Database Instance. It is struck with 83% done

with linking error.

I have gone through the oss note Note 841728 - 10.2: Solutions for

installation and upgrade problems. Specific to Point Number 8 which

asks the following 32-BIT Libraries to be installed:

glibc-32bit-8.1-9

glibc-devel-32bit-8.1-9

But we currently have the following glibc libraries installed:

[root@eul3p4 logs]# rpm -qa | grep glibc

glibc-common-2.5-42

acronis-glibc-1.0-0

glibc-2.5-42

glibc-devel-2.5-42

glibc-2.5-42

glibc-headers-2.5-42

Can you please provide a resolution to which glibc packages we need to

install?

PFA the log of the error that we are facing

[root@eul3p4 logs]# gcc -m32 -o ctxhx -L/oracle/SUD/102_64/ctx//lib32/ -L/oracle/SUD/102_64/lib32/ -

Hello Antarpreet,

to get it pretty easy - oracle provides "validation" packages.

If you install this rpm .. all needed dependencies are resolved.

For RHEL5 get it here: http://oss.oracle.com/el5/oracle-validated/

After that you can be sure that you have fulfilled the software requirements for running an oracle database.

Install the ones you just listed yourself (the 32bit libraries):

> glibc-32bit-8.1-9

> glibc-devel-32bit-8.1-9

Hello Markus,

Thanks for your help.

I am not able to locate the place where I could find these 2 RPM's:

glibc-32bit-8.1-9

glibc-devel-32bit-8.1-9

Can you please let me know the location from where I could download these?

Regards,

Antarpreet

You have to register the instance in the Redhat network and then just use

yum install <packagename>
