Error in Invoking Target 'xyz' of makefile

[former_member182034]

Dear all,

I am getting following issue when I try to install oracle 10g on SUSE 11.3.

Error in Invoking Target 'install' of makefile
/oracle/SID/102_64/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk

I have already install some RPM packages specially SLES11 (Support Package 1): glibc-devel-32bit-2.11.1-0.17.4 which is mentioned in Note 841728

but still getting same issue, I checked the following thread

http://scn.sap.com/thread/1171142

Oracle installer,Error in invoking target install of makefile ins_ctx.mkinwhich one scn user(Chandra Guptha S) is getting same issue and he installed some RPMs and after that installation successfully completed but he installed on RHEL.

I also read on oracle forum about this issue and users are saying that we can ignore these issue and when i applied oracle patch then during patching these issue will be automatically rectified. what do you say about it?

please guide me how can I resolve this issue (Invoking Target 'xyz', ins_ctx.mk).

hi Ratnajit,

Thanks for sharing SAP Note,

Dear,  here I am trying to install on IBM x3650 machine.

but I used attached work around.

cp env_ldap_mk /oracle/SID/102_64/ldap/lib

cp env_network_mk /oracle/SID/102_64/network/lib

cp env_emdb_mk /oracle/SID/102_64/sysman/lib

oracle/SID/102_64/bin> relink all

/oracle/stage/102_64/database/SAP> ./RUNINSTALLER.

Error in Invoking Target 'install' of makefile

/oracle/SID/102_64/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk

what do you say about RPMs?

Regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

As per the note which mentions the workaround , retry for any linking issue.

As far as RPMs are concerned , if the oracle  installer does not complain of missing RPMs, then no need to install .

Check these notes for more info

Note 1310037 - SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 11: Installation notes

HI Ratnajit,

I checked the above notes but problem still persist.

Note 980426 - Oracle 10.2 Software installation on new operating systems

we can bypass the prerequisite with the help of above note but here i m getting error during linking

Note 1310037 - SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 11: Installation notes

as you knew, I am getting linking issue, I also check the above note inwhich i got below note.

If you get linker errors during the installation of Oracle patch set  10.0.2.1 please refer to

SAP note 1395928
Exception String: Error in invoking target 'collector' of
makefile '/oracle/QO2/102_64/sysman/lib/ins_emdb.mk'
Solution
 Ignore the make error and terminate the installation of patch set  10.2.0.1. Then install patch set 10.2.0.5, which does not exhibit the make error.

but here I am getting

Error in Invoking Target 'install' of makefile /oracle/SID/102_64/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk

here, If i ignore this message and continue the installation then may i get issue during sap installation.

what I have to do?

Regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

Install the patch set 10.2.0.5 immediate after ignoring this error and moving ahead.

After you complete the patch 10.2.0.5 update and the necessary post-work , then run relink all as ora<sid> and check if that is successful.

I believe you have installed all the required RPMs as per SAP.

Regards

Ratnajit

Dear,

now installation is paused on Install Database Server Software and first I have installed Oracle 10.2.0.1 and got new issue during oracle patch 10.2.0.5

error in invoking target 'agent oratclsh nmo nmb' of makefile 
/102_64/sysman/lib/ins_sysman.mk

while I run the relink all but still getting above message.

why I am getting these issue? and which issue might be arise during sapinst if I continue the installation of oracle patch.

Regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

You should not continue in this case with SAPINST .

Can you check the available packages in the system

execute

rpm -qa |grep glibc

I believe some required package is missing.

Do you have access to this oracle metalink note 956194.1

sorry for late reply,

Dear, I checked the forum and got to know that following RPMs must be install on your system which is prerequisites of Oracle 10g.

Example:

now please check and tell me about the missing and version of RPMs. may i install oracle 10g with above RPMs or I have to delete latest and install old version.

Regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

I suggest you check  the following RPMs

#rpm -q gcc gcc-c++ glibc libaio libaio-devel make openmotif openmotif-libs

Install the ones which are not available.

Then try out.

above java-1_6_0 & java-1_5_0 are showing.

is there any issue due to 2 versions ???

regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

Can you now go ahead with the patch installation ?

Also these 2 versions of java will not have any issues .

If your system is ABAP only, then JRE will not be used.

For JAVA or ABAP+JAVA systems , you opt for SAP JVM.

Regards

Ratnajit

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

I think no. You may install any number of java versions without any problems. Nevertheless note you must use the correct version for each software using java. In your situation during oracle software compilation java has no relation to issue. As I wrote below check exact error you received from system

hi Dear,

I have installed Oracle with continue option.

now would you confirm me about Oracle Patch(10.2.0.5) mean I have to install Oracle(10201) and its patch(10205) on the step of Install Database Server Software or may I continue with only Oracle(10201) mean without Oracle Patch.

Regards,

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

You may choose any option. But I recommend to install Oracle Patch 10.2.0.5 after database software installation due to many reasons: oracle support, bug fix etc.

Regards

Roman

[former_member182034 · Accepted solution]

Hi Roman,

may I continue with Oracle 10201 and Its Patch 10205 or I have to apply its mopathc/Opatch/ interim patches and post installation scripts. or may I apply Opatch/ interim patches after SAP installation.

Regards,

[former_member189725 · Accepted solution]

I suggest you move to Oracle 10.2.0.5 . Oracle 10.2.0.1 is not the recommended patch level by SAP. Once you complete the Oracle base installation , then go ahead and apply the patch set 10.2.0.5.

You then apply the bundle patch for Oracle 10.2.0.5 as suggested by the SAP note

Note 1431752 - Oracle 10.2.0: Patches/Patch Collections for 10.2.0.5

using the mopatch utility.

Regards

Ratnajit

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

You may apply interim patches after SAP installation

To resolve you issue you need to investigate log files/output for exact error occured and after that decide what to do. Please search about exact error description

[former_member182034]

hi Roman and Ratnajit,

Bundle of thanks for your kind support.

Solution/Remedy For scn users.

I ignored the issue and continued the oracle installation and applied the simple patch(10205). I applied the interim patches After completion the sap installation.

now system is running fine.
