Oracle 9i install: Error in invoking target install of makefile

[Chris2005]

I receive an error while installing: See attachement.

Furthermore:
$ whoami
oracle

$ echo $ORACLE_HOME
/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0

$ pwd
/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/sqlplus/lib
$ ll

The machine I'm using is an old one: PA-RISC 9000 D210 but should do the job for Oracle 9i I was told. How do I see how much RAM is in it and stuff like that?

If you don't want to open the attachement, this is the error I get:

Error in invoking target install of makefile

Pls help. Thank you.

Hi Chris,

see the Oracle 9i Installation Guide for HP-UX

ps : see also this link http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=641939
but i think is not your case.

Hang it up. Your D210 is a 32-bit box and Oracle 9.x for HP-UX is only available as a 64-bit application.

[Chris2005]

Hmm that's too bad. Before I bought the machine I was told this model could do the job. Next time I'll check better.

Thanx for you info.

Regards,
Chris

You need a mimimum of a Dx70 before you get a PA-8000 (64-bit) processor. You would still have to install a 64-bit version of HP-UX 11.x to make it work. One of the main problems with Oracle 9 on a D-box is that you quickly run into memory constraints as the maximum memory of a D-box is 3GiB. The little L-boxes are rather cheap on the used equipment market.
