Installation on Unbreakable Linux.

528712Jun 22 2007 — edited Oct 4 2007
So I'm trying to install, and I get the following error each time:

. ./runInstaller
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

Checking installer requirements...

Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2

All installer requirements met.

I assumed that Unbreakable would automatically install all pre-reqs, but that wasn't a smart thought.

Either way, anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Install package XFree86-libs-* , it will solve problem.

Search this forum, you will find similar issue and you will get same reply :-)

Thanks, I had to search the forum further back than the default to find it. I have added this package as well as xorg-x11, (Again, this is Oracle's Enterprise Linux) and it still gives the same error.

Any more ideas? Thanks!

Install the "xorg-x11-deprecated-libs" package. This error is because even though this package is no longer used OUI 10gR2 requires the libXp.so.6 library, which is included there.

To verify if this is installed, issue this command:

$ rpm -q xorg-x11-deprecated-libs
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.37

Verify the output. And verify library libXp.so.6 is located at
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXp.so.6, in fact you will find a soft link
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jun 2 15:43 libXp.so.6 -> libXp.so.6.2

$ ll libXp.so.6.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 28648 Oct 23 2006 libXp.so.6.2

This is being queried at an Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.

Most probably above mentioned package (xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.20.i386.rpm)
will solve you issue. OEL more or less is like RHEL so you can look following
site where most of the issue were addressed

Hi, I'm using OEL Release 5, and i'm having the libXp.so.6 problem 'coz i don't have installed the x11-xorg-deprecated libs, i all ready search in the binaries disks and i didn't found it, so, i guess if these files are in the sources disk, if they are on these disks, in wich disk are they? i don't want to download 5 disks only for a cuple of files :S.

Right now i can't get access to the update files 'coz we didn't bought the service yet.
Thanks

I state here on this installation guide --> Install DB10gR2 on RHEL5what the specific rpms are required and where you can get them from. This is no longer packaged on the deprecated libraries, and this deprecated libraries is no longer packaged with OEL5.
