Oracle on Suse SLES 10 incompatible


Hello all,

I am to install Oracle 10.2 on SLES 10 (opensuse 10.3) from Suse. I got the following error here:

x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: i386 architecture of input file '/oracle/KDV/102_64/sysman/lib/libnmcol.a (nmccole.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output

Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Any help, hints or advice is *greatly* appreciated :-)

TIA.

There is usually a document that comes with the Oracle software (somewhere), or is available in the Oracle knowledgebase. I don't think that OpenSuSE is supported, but SLES is, along with RedHat EL4/5.

There are some ways to 'trick' the installer into working with a non-supported version of Linux, but you'll be left in the cold if you ever have a support issue.

Also, based on your message above, it looks like you're trying to install the wrong platform's code. Do you have the 64 bit version?

Hello and thanks for responding

Supposedly, this is the 64-bit version of Oracle :| It is Oracle 10.2. I thought, myself, that it looked like a 32-bit version of Oracle. I downloaded it from a SAP site.

TIA

Hmm...I do think it looks like the 32bit stuff, but I'm no Oracle expert. I'd contact Oracle directly, and make sure you've got the right stuff. Also, unless this is a test/development server, I'd strongly suggest making sure that you're on a supported OS. If you're running OpenSuSE, and they only support SLES, any support calls you make will not be answered, since you're in an 'unsupported configuration'.
