 Problem Faced While Installing Oracle 9i on Linux
Hello All, While Installing Oracle 9i (9.2.0.6) on Red Hat Linux AS4, I received the following error: - RPM to install the Legato Single Server Version (LSSV) product. Form more information, please refer to the Linux installation section in the LSSV Installation Guide at http://www.legato.com/LSSV error: Failed dependencies: libncurses.so.4 is needed by orclclnt-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 error: Failed dependencies: orclclnt = nw_lssv.Build.71-1 is needed by orcldrvr-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 error: Failed dependencies: orclclnt = nw_lssv.Build.71-1 is needed by orclnode-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 orcldrvr = nw_lssv.Build.71-1 is needed by orclnode-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 libscsi.so is needed by orclnode-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 libsji.so is needed by orclnode-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 error: Failed dependencies: orclclnt = nw_lssv.Build.71-1 is needed by orclserv-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 orclnode = nw_lssv.Build.71-1 is needed by orclserv-nw_lssv.Build.71-1.i386 ** Installation of LSSV did not succeed. Please refer ** to the Installation Guide at http://www.legato.com/LSSV ** and contact Oracle customer support if necessary. I ignored that error and continued with the installation. After the installation was complete and i applied all the patch sets as mentioned by Werner Puschitz on www.puschitz.com, when i tried to launch DBCA from $ORACLE_HOME/bin, DBCA did not started and the following error was thrown on the screen. libcxa.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (libOsUtils.so) java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no OsUtils in shared library path at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary(Runtime.java) at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java) at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.OsUtilsUnix.<init>(OsUtilsUnix.java:543) at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.OsUtilsBase.constructInstance(OsUtilsBase.java:1089) at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.OsUtilsBase.getOsUtils(OsUtilsBase.java:99) at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.attributes.CommonAttributes.<init>(CommonAttributes.java:174) at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.step.StepContext.<init>(StepContext.java:131) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.backend.Host.<init>(Host.java:454) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.ui.UIHost.<init>(UIHost.java:185) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.ui.InteractiveHost.<init>(InteractiveHost.java:54) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.getHost(Dbca.java:141) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.execute(Dbca.java:85) at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.main(Dbca.java:161) You all are requested to please help me in debugging and solving the error so that i can proceed with the installation of Oracle 9i on Red Hat Linux AS4. Thanks in advance, Roopak Jain
