You may get the error: "Error in invoking target install of
makefile /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/lib/ins_oemagent.mk".
The
/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/install/make.log file reads:
/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/lib/libnmi.a(snmitcl.o)(.text+0x1cc): In function `get_ora_stmt_handle': : undefined reference to `__ctype_b' /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/lib/libnmi.a(snmitcl.o)(.text+0x124e): In function `OraProcess_Oid': : undefined reference to `__ctype_b' /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/lib/libnmi.a(snmitcl.o)(.text+0x176c): more undefined references to `__ctype_b' follow collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [dbsnmp] Error 1
Click ignore. This will be fixed by applying the patch 3119415 after the 9.2.0.4 patchset has been applied. The patch 3119415 cannot be applied while the patch process for the 9.2.0.4 patchset is running.
After the 9.2.0.4 patchset has been applied, download the patch
p3119415_9204_LINUX.zip from http://metalink.oracle.com. See bug 3119415 for more information. Also, download the opatch Release 2.2.0 utility from http://metalink.oracle.com. See bug 2617419 at http://metalink.oracle.com for more information.
To install
opatch, run:
su - oracle $ cp p2617419_210_GENERIC.zip /tmp $ cd /tmp $ unzip p2617419_210_GENERIC.zip
Before you apply the 3119415 patch, you need to make sure the fuser binary can be found by the oracle user, see the
PATH environment variable below. Otherwise the patch can not be applied because the fuser binary is used by opatch. To apply the 3119415 patch, run:
su - oracle $ unzip p3119415_9204_LINUX.zip $ cd 3119415 $ export PATH=$PATH:/tmp/OPatch $ export PATH=$PATH:/sbin # the patch needs "fuser" which is located in /sbin $ which opatch /tmp/OPatch/opatch $ opatch apply
Now you should be able to create a database with dbca:
$ su - oracle $ dbca
