Install Oracle 10g on Centos 5 - cannot stat ntcontab.o [message #489759]

Hello,

During installation of Oracle on my PC running CentOS 5, at some point an error occurs. The last line in make.log states that "cannot stat ntcontab.o no such file or directory"

Here are the values of my environment variables prior to installation :

$ORACLE_BASE = /opt/Oracle/
$ORACLE_HOME = /opt/Oracle/product/10.1.0
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /opt/Oracle/product/10.1.0/lib32

When I investigated after the error occurred:

1/ Make looks for an ntcontab.o under $ORACLE_HOME/lib

2/ the only ntcontab.o I found was under $ORACLE_HOME/lib32

3/ I did set my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to $ORACLE_HOME/lib32 (where the ntcontab.o file is found)

SO,

1/ Is this issue related to the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH as I thought in the first place.

2/ How comes this error keeps coming back though $LD_LIBRARY_PATH points to a directory where ntcontab.o exists.

thanks for your help,
Didier

is hardware 64 or 32 bit?
is OS 64 or 32 bit?
is Oracle s/w 64 or 32 bit?

are you sure that all the above are in synch?

Hmmm...
I don't have V10 & I don't have 32 bit system.
However I also don't have a directory named "lib32".
So I am left wondering why you have what you report?

You may want to verify that you have installed ALL the required rpm's.
