Running Oracle on Fedora

Hello,

I have installed Oracle on my Rh 9.0 and it works fine._
As I have not an available harware to test fedora I update partialy Rh 9
and Oracle database works find but all interactive program using Java
stop to work symbol __libc_wait not defined in file libc.so.6 !!!

Did some body try to install Oracle on Fedora ?

nicolas, what exactly does "update partially" mean ?
My feeling is that if you were doing ok running it on RH9 you won't gain much even if you do get it running on Fedora....you might be better off sticking with RH9.

By partially update I mean I did it manualy package by package. For exemple I run with glibc-2.3.2-101 on Rh 9.0 ...

The full story is I would like to use PHP with Oracle but to do that you need to recompile php with --with-oci8 and --with-oracle. At on step the sytem request to get the latest libc etc....

So the dabase is working find, probleme come from JRE-118 in fact. I try to setup Oracle to use the latest JRE from sun but I get the message that Oracle must run only with JRE 118 !

I try to find a java package 118 working with glibc-2.3.2. I heard some thing about blackdown.org

Or you could patch Glibc to get __libc_wait back in or check out http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedor.../msg06994.html for a way to LD_PRELOAD stuff and here's another one using LD_ASSUME_KERNEL and LD_PRELOAD http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/...cgi?id=109388. HTH.

Waooo You impress me I did some research without finding this tip !

I already compile this "fix" Now I have to figure out how to use LD_LOADER !

For information your second Url is invalide "The bug does not exist" or "disapear ???"

Thank you very much

Super It's working fine

I just add export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcwait.so in the profile

and run oemapp console without any trouble !

Great Thank you very again
