oracle 920 install

patrick xi — Wed, 11 Jan 2006 01:25:45 GMT

Dear friends,

When I'm installing oracle 920 in HPUX11i, during phase linking oracle9i database 9.2.0.1.0, it poped up a window with following message,
<-----------------------------------------------
Error in invoking target install of makefile /oracle/PSM/920_64/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk
----------------------------------------------->
In make.log, I found this error message
<-----------------------------------------------
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "Xm"
*** Error exit code 1
----------------------------------------------->

I don't know whether it's caused by OS or oracle_bug.

Please help, thank you in advance.

Best regards,
patrick

Hi Patrick,

See the quote from Metalink
============================================

Doc ID: Note:180445.1
Subject: /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "Xm" for linking 64bit executables
Type: PROBLEM
Status: PUBLISHED
Content Type: TEXT/PLAIN
Creation Date: 18-MAR-2002
Last Revision Date: 08-MAY-2002

Problem Description
-------------------

You are trying to install a 64bit Oracle product on a 64bit HP
system. During the linking stage, you are getting numerous "error
invoking target 'install' of makefile " errors.

The $ORACLE_HOME/install/make.log file reveals these types of errors:

...
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "Xm"
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.

HP Document KBRC00003627 states that you must create the following
three soft links:

ln -s /usr/lib/Motif2.1/libXm.4 /usr/lib/Motif2.1/libXm.sl
ln -s /usr/lib/libXt.3 /usr/lib/libXt.sl
ln -s /usr/lib/libX11.3 /usr/lib/libX11.sl

You check /usr/lib and the links are there.

Solution Description
--------------------

You need to create the 64bit equivalents of these same symbolic links:

ln -s /usr/lib/Motif2.1/pa20_64/libXm.4 /usr/lib/Motif2.1/pa20_64/libXm.sl
ln -s /usr/lib/pa20_64/libXt.3 /usr/lib/pa20_64/libXt.sl
ln -s /usr/lib/pa20_64/libX11.3 /usr/lib/pa20_64/libX11.sl

Explanation
-----------
On 64bit HP-UX 11.0, required X libraries are located in a new directory
location.

References
----------

[NOTE:169177.1] /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "Xm"

With Regards,

Siva.

Shalom,

Those soft links should already have been created. You may need to have them as part of the SHLIB_PATH variable.

It sounds odd I know, but we all had
this error.
Just prepare the soft links (all of them)
and restart your runInstaller,
it wil work :) :)
