Installation of Oracle 817 in HPUX 11i fails with Error in invoking target nnfgt.o of makefile

[Andres Suarez_2]

Greetings!

When we are installing the ORACLE RDBMS for HP-UX the installation aborts in phase: Linking Net8 Support files 8.1.7.0.0

Our installation is:
---------------------------------------
HP-UX 11i version 1.6 operating enviroment
ORACLE 817 for HP-UX 64-Bit
---------------------------------------

The error is:
---------------------------------------
Error in invoking target nnfgt.o of makefile /oracle/D47/814_64/network/lib/ins_net_client.mk
---------------------------------------

When we try to link it manually the error showed is:
---------------------------------------
imudev:orad47 8> make
Make: No arguments or description file. Stop.
imudev:orad47 9> make -f ins_net_client.mk nnfgt.o

Have you loaded all the pre-requistire patches for HPUX 11i before starting the installation.

Looks like you are missing some patches.

check the documentation

hi

I think the problem is with semaphores.
check SEMMAX and other IPC related parameters as per installation documents.

Hi Andreas,

this looks like SAP environment. Check out OSS for Required HP-UX Patches. I think there was at least one needed for the C-Compiler.

Is this a fresh install or an Upgrade or a 64-bit migration ?

Not exactly sure about the environment, but I mind to remember the one should use $ORACLE_HOME/lib64 in 64-bit environment (but could be other platform as well). I currently have no system available (@home), but if you migrated from 32 bit, check the guides, if you probably missed to adjust the lib-environment or, if you did that, forgot to logout and in to activate it.

But I give a 85% chance for the C-Compiler Patch.

Good luck
Volker

Patch the box.

Go over the whole kernel and be generous with semaphores and all other shared memory segments

maxdsiz and maxdsiz_64 should be a minimum of 300 Megabytes, probably a lot more.

nproc needs to be pretty high.

If its a migration, I'm attaching a guide document from Oracle.

Hello to everybody!

This is a fresh installation.

This is a SAP installation. We are using the cdroms for HP-UX64 of SAP.

I am new in this enviroment where can I get the hp-ux 11i patches?.

Thank a lot,
Andres Suarez

What patches are reqd.?

This information you can find it in the installation guide.

The installation guide should be found on your Oracle software cd in docs dir Check for pre-installation requirements

You can get those patches from

http://www2.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/mainPage.do

Revert on any clarifications

Check your compiler. You are most likely not using a compiler that will work, or is pointing to a third-party compiler. The /usr/bin/cc that we use points to /opt/ansic/bin/cc. I can remember having problems if it uses the one under /usr/ccs/bin/cc, and especially if it points to a third-party compiler for some reason.

Also, you will want to run:
make -f ins_net_client.mk install

This will compile the binaries for the network files.
