Hi,

this is a bug in the installer. you can download a patch from oracle http://metalink.oracle.com

Here is the description from Oracle

The information in this article applies to:
Oracle Universal Installer - Version: 2.1 to 2.2
Linux x86
Red Hat Advanced Server
Symptoms
When running the installer on Red Hat AS 3.0 it fails with the next error messages :

/releases/core/LINUX/32bit/rdbms/920/Disk1> ./runInstaller
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /tmp/OraInstall2004-02-24_10-40-59AM/jre/bin/java. Please wait...

You might also receive different error messages depending on what Oracle product you're trying to install.

If trying to install Oracle apps 11.5.7 you might receive the following error.
.

Cause
This is a product defect.
Fix
Please download and install the patch for Bug 3006854 available in Metalink.

Read the installation instructions in the readme.txt file included in the patch :
- unzip p3006854_9204_LINUX.zip
- Login as the root user,
- Set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located.
- sh rhel3_pre_install.sh

Notes:
- You do need root privileges to run the last command line.
- This patch is not specific to a particular Oracle version, but you'll find it using version 9.2.0.4.
- The patch is needed before running the Oracle Universal Installerfor any (certified) Oracle product on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0.
- Installer of Oracle10g does not need this patch.

I am getting the exact same issue except with the Coldfusion 6.0 installer and Redhat AS 3.0

Is there anything i can do ?
I have tried the LD_Path aswell, And have tried 4 different JDK's with the same results.

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library: /tmp/install.dir.3413/Linux/resource/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

Has anyone solved this....

If you are still on kernel 2.4.x try that one

LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1; export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

no guarantee found that one also at Oracle support.

Solution
This issue was reported to Quality Engineering as PFOI62AJ2U. However, it was determined to be a software limitation.
Workaround:
The workaround consists of preloading a shared library using the LD_PRELOAD environment variable before launching the Language Pack

1. Get the file ftp://people.redhat.com/drepper/libcwait.c.
2. check if gcc is installed with "rpm -qa | grep gcc".
3. Install gcc if not present.
4. Compile the downloaded file with "gcc -shared -o libcwait.so -O -g libcwait.c".
5. Launch "export LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libcwait.so".
6. Launch the LP installer.

Contents of the libcwait.so file:

#include <errno.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
pid_t
__libc_wait (int *status)
{
int res;
asm volatile ("pushl %%ebx\n\t"
"movl %2, %%ebx\n\t"
"movl %1, %%eax\n\t"
"int $0x80\n\t"
"popl %%ebx"
: "=a" (res)
: "i" (__NR_wait4), "0" (WAIT_ANY), "c" (status), "d" (0),
"S" (0));
return res;
}

It worked...

Thanks perry, it worked out great..

here is the problem I had
When I was trying to create idl2java file
Can't load library "/tools/sun/jdk/1.2.2/linux/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so", because sun/jdk/1.2.2/linux/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

Solution worked, except i had to go to

http://people.redhat.com/drepper/libcwait.c

to get the .c file, everything else stays same.
