Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Installing Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat 8.0

Hi Vinod,

I hope that we can verify what Janine has said above.  She is able to install and run Oracle fine only LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 and glibc stubs patch. No more compat libs.  This is important to know since RH 8 does not anymore carry the compat libs.

In my RH 8 install I used the compat libs still since I though it was needed.  My friend at RH who installed 8i on RH 8 the minute it came out also had compat libs.

Since DanW is able to verify that we only need the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL and without running the compat libs shell script.  Which may mean that we don't need to install those compat libs.

Janine,

I am not doubting that what you have stated is wrong.  It would be nice that someone can verify it so we can remove the compat libs install on the docs.
